Bajaj Pulsar 250F Spotted Testing in India; To Rival Suzuki Gixxer SF 250

Bajaj Pulsar 250F Spotted Testing in India: The much-anticipated Bajaj Pulsar 250 streetfighter was spotted testing in India back in February this year. In one of the major updates, the semi-faired version of the upcoming motorcycle has been spotted testing for the first time ever.

Expected to launch as Pulsar 250F, the semi-faired bike would be competing with the likes of Suzuki Gixxer SF 250. The test mule is heavily camouflaged but still reveals a lot of details. Like in the Pulsar 220F, the quarter fairing joins the headlight section with the fuel tank, and the Pulsar 250F also features faring-mounted rear-view mirrors and clip-on handlebars. The rear end of the upcoming bike resembles a lot with the naked version of the 250cc Pulsar series. Except for the quarter fairing, the rest of the parts and components of Pulsar 250F are similar to the Pulsar 250 Naked.

As per the details available, the Bajaj Pulsar 250F will come powered by an all-new 250cc single-cylinder, fuel-injected, oil-cooled engine, and it is expected to generate around 24HP of maximum power. Though the motorcycle is heavily camouflaged in the spy photos, one can clearly see the telescopic front forks, rear monoshock suspension, black alloy wheels, an edgy design for the rearview mirrors, split seats, a short rear fender, an aerodynamic quarter fairing, a smart rear tyre hugger, a short upswept exhaust system, an underseat LED tail-light and a new set of pillion grab rails.

Bajaj Pulsar series currently has 125, 150, 160, 180, 200, and 220cc engine options. In addition to the 250cc model of the Pulsar NS and Pulsar RS, Bajaj Auto is also said to be working on Avenger 250 cruiser motorcycle and the Pulsar AS250 adventure motorcycle. As far as the launch is concerned, the Pulsar 250F is expected to launch in India by the end of this year or in early next year.
