Bajaj Pulsar NS160 was recently launched in Nepal for NPR 2,59,900 (INR 1.62 lakh approx. after conversion). The company has shown no desire to launch the same in India but as every manufacturer is placing key products in the 150-160 cc segment, Bajaj may think of launching the same later this year. It would be sold via HH Bajaj in Nepal. Bajaj NS160 was shown at a dealers meet in Turkey and comes in three exciting shades.

The new engine is a reworked version of Bajaj’s 150 cc motor. The 160.3 cc, single cylinder, triple spark oil-cooled engine is good for 15.5 PS at 8500 rpm and 14.6 Nm at 6500 rpm. It comes mated to a 5-speed gearbox and weighs just 135 kg. The front tyre measures 100/80-17 while the rear is 110/70-17. NS160 gets an oil cooled engine and gets single channel ABS as an option in Nepal.
Bajaj has kept its styling in the same way as bigger NS200. The tank shrouds are finished in the same Matt Grey shade on all the color options. It comes in Sapphire Blue, Passion Red and Pearl Metallic White shade in Nepal. Bajaj Auto will soon launch the same in most of the International markets. The engine is high on torque and brings all of its power in the accessible range, making it really exciting to drive in city conditions.
