In my opinion, Bajaj has just destroyed the bike's front and side looks. It feels like a skinned ADV. Raider and Xtreme even offer better fit, finish, and features in the 125cc segment.
N250 has wobbling issue at high speed u can confirm this by watching multiple videos and reviews about the bike and now coming to the handling ns200/rs200 and ns400 has the best handling in pulsar lineup right now u can also confirm this by multiple reviews @@venukrithish007
I actually have pulsar 135LS and I drive it to college daily The handling and the comfort that bike has maintained over 12 yrs later is insane. And the looks still hold up today
Finally a light pulsar. Very fresh adv kinda design. No tacho no gear indicator is fine. No one cares in this segment. A dual channel ABS could have changed the game, safety matters regardless of segment.
The Raider and Xtreme have a better road presence owing to the front head lamp section looking bigger. The N125's head lamp looks peuny almost as if it's supposed to convey that it's lower cc.
Well if the sub 1 lac bike would also have the same presence as the NS 200 or N160 or even NS125 then the NS & higher CC guys will riot cz they have spent more money for the presence... LOL

So much for lightweight motorcycle, take it on a open road and you'll know what I'm talking about, I own raider 125 myself, at speeds higher than 50 kmph when bigger vehicle passes through, the becomes unstable, classic pulsar 125 is the best option, it's also very simple and no fuss bike(Techometer in these budget bikes are as good as their low end torque 😅😅), i regret buying Raider very much.
Same here, regret buying Raider. The riding position is so messed up that my back starts to ache after just 10 kms & my right hand goes numb.

Some great features like silent start, lighter weight and aggressive styling but missed out on some basic ones. Could have been the go to 125cc bike but fell behind.
Pulsar's new tagline. Malnutritioned vehicles at its finest. 80 section tyres with chunky fork so called protectors. just na.... I respect The Ntorq because it atleast as 100 section front and 110 rear. suits its looks.
Overall a nice review, thanks for the comprehensive coverage. I had a couple of queries though - Halogen headlamps and then you mention all LED setup..? Also seems we missed that all important question all of us Desis have in mind: Kitna deti hai i e KmpL?
Why always either naked sports bike or standard commuter styling? Why not make below 150cc bikes with classic, or retro style like highness, meteor, or like Fiero FX?
If i was designer i would put single sided swingarm at rear , put gear shifter indicator, i would install tank similar to R1 or Ducatti 999, and install silver blade Like NS / RS below tank 😊 and also put 5 speed gear box with 70 to 90 kmpl mileage ... and dual seat 💺 at back ..
How can Bajaj even think of competing with the Raider 125 with this motorcycle. Raider already had an upper hand with 3 valves, better console, lighter weight and overall a better package. Pulsar 135LS was much better of a rival. Well, it was an amazing motorcycle hands down!

Looked like a Honda at first glance 😊
Look like pulsar suffering from malnutrition
The same fit and finishing issues with the Xtreme 125.
They are just launching bikes for competition without working on fit and finish
this gives me feeling that Bajaj should actually work on 125cc dual-sport bike, Cause this bikes is so close to be called an adventure sport
It looks more like an CNG bike that Bajaj launched earlier rather than a Pulsar's petrol engine bike 🤷🏻♂️
pulsar team adds way too much plastic into freedom125 chassis. Classic pulsar looks good.
Riding 125 cc bike which weighs 125kg while wearing a helmet which also costs just 125k

Don't panic bro. There would be a lot of videos about N125 within a month for you to decide whether to buy or not.

In a couple of days 🙏
Headlight design reminds me of a scooter.
