Design & Styling
The gold painted inverted fork adds to the looks of the Bajaj Pulsar N160, giving it a premium touch. Previously, this fork setup was only available on the top-spec version with a split-seat layout. And, just like the other variants, this model is available in 4 colours: Pearl Metallic White, Racing Red, Polar Sky Blue, and Black.
Why The Update?
According to Bajaj, customer research showed that a large number of Pulsar N160 buyers prefer the single-piece seat, and this variant has been developed to meet that demand. With this update, the company aims to attract customers who want the inverted fork without a big jump in price and the perceived comfort of a single-seat layout.
While more details about the features (except for the all-LED lighting and dual-channel ABS) are unknown at the moment, we have reached out to the brand for a clarification. We will be updating this article as and when we hear from the brand. That said, the bike continues to be powered by the 164.82cc single-cylinder, air-cooled engine that makes 16PS and 14.65Nm.
Chief rivals include the TVS Apache RTR 160 4V, recently updated Hero Xtreme 160R 4V, and 2025 Yamaha FZ-S Fi. Bajaj had earlier mentioned in an earnings call that a new Pulsar was planned for December, and it looks like this is the variant it was talking about.
