Stills, Specifications of new version of Bajaj Pulsar 180



Bajaj Pulsar is considered to be one of the most sold bike model in the Indian market. The brand has been such a phenomenal success for Bajaj that investing in bikes which sport the tag has been paying back immensely. Bajaj have introduced four different versions of Pulsar (Pulsar 150,180,200,220) in the market and all have been selectively doing excellent business for the brand. Now, Bajaj have updated their 180cc Pulsar and this new version of the Pulsar 180 DTS-i, internally called the UG4 (short for upgrade four) is all set to conquer the hearts of the millions.
Most of the parts in the old Pulsar 180 DTS-i have been kept alive. The same wolf-eyed headlamp, the LED tail lamp and the kickless start feature have all been carried forward. The orange back-lit digital speedo and odometer and the cool white LED backlit controls and switch gear have been carried forward too. The other notable feature that reappearanced is the self cancelling turn indicator switch, that behaves like those in a car. In this method, the indicator bulb is automatically deactivated after the manoeuvre is made or after a preset time, if the turn is not made.
Features that are added in this new version of Bajaj Pulsar 180 DTS-i were the chunky and retro-looking three part handle bar, that offered the sturdy frontal looks for 200. It also added the slap-on tank flaps from the Pulsar 220, on either side of the oversized petrol tank. The other new features include the split seats for rider and pillion, the two-piece rear grab rail and the rubber anti-scratch pad on the petrol tank.

The 178.6cc engine has been re-tuned to squeeze out a bit more power. The Pulsar 180 DTS-i's four-stroke, air-cooled engine now generates 17.02 PS at 8,500 rpm. Peak torque available is 14.22 Nm at 6,500 rpm. The wheelbase of the dual tube chassis of the new Pulsar 180 DTS-i has been lengthened a bit to 1,345mm. The swing arm is now a new, thicker oval-section member and the front forks are also chunkier 130mm stroke. Braking power at the front is now provided by a 260mm disc and the same 130mm drum at the rear. The new Pulsar 180 DTS-i is now a heavier bike with its kerb weight at 147 kgs.
The new Pulsar 180 DTS-i is priced at about Rs 63,300/-.
