Modified Bajaj Pulsar 200 DTS-i by Tejas Manek: India is moving on the right track and Tejas Manek is here to prove us right. The 24 year old Automobile Designer from Pune built an amazing product and named it ‘PulRacer’.
A custom built cafe racer, PulRacer is a name that integrates Pulsar and Cafe Racer into one and helps him live his dream of driving his unique possession. Now back to the track part, Indian students are now more interested in practical exposure and this would surely help them claim a confidence filled career through their entire life.
The machine was born as a Bajaj Pulsar 200 DTS-i and performance was filled into its DNA from the day of its birth. Pulsar 200 was known for its crazy acceleration while its lightweight body helped riders get the full fun out of the conservative Pulsar design.
Tejas studies design and hence, he was ready to get over the old body panels with his personally planned cafe racer design. The motorcycle was stripped to its core and most minor components were finished in Deep Black. Even the engine and exhaust components are finished in Black.
The frame of the motorcycle was chopped in order to place the single seat with much ease while the same was finished in Tan leather and diamond stitching. The front got itself a round headlight with Orange highlights while the fenders were even chopped for a smaller one at the front and simply a tyre hugger at the rear.
The clip-ons of the Pulsar is replaced with a reversed handlebar. The huge Pulsar tank makes way for a beautifully finished cafe racer fuel tank with enough space for the rider’s legs. The foot pegs were moved to the rear and slightly lifted.
The beauty of this machine gets further raised with thicker rear tyre and Orange pinstripe on the front wheel. The brakes were kept the same as stock motorcycle and the same can be said for the exhaust as well as alloy wheels.
Pulsar 200 DTS-i uses a 198.8 cc, single cylinder engine producing 18.1 BHP and 17.68 Nm of torque. The engine comes mated to a 5-speed gearbox. The stock bike weighs 145 kg while this modification would have surely dropped some weight from the motorcycle. Congratulations to Tejas Manek for this beautiful ride.
