Bajaj has released the first model of its six new models for this year, the much anticipated Bajaj Pulsar 200SS.

Kawasaki too released its most affordable bike in India, the Kawasaki Ninja Z250.

While the volumetric measure between the two bikes is merely 50cc, we help you understand the features of each bike.

Bajaj Pulsar RS200 Specifications

Bajaj Pulsar 200 ss

• This new bike was launched at a live event yesterday amongst huge fanfare. The bikes have been priced at INR 1.18 lakh (Non-ABS) ex-showroom New Delhi.
• The bike also comes in an ABS version that is priced at INR 1.30 lakh ex-showroom New Delhi.
• Appearance wise the bike look a lot like the motorbike version of Bumblebee, a transformer from the Transformers movie based on a Camaro.
• Bajaj claims it to be the fastest ever production quality Pulsar ever made and it is touted to touch a top-speed of 141 kmph flat-out!
• The new Pulsar RS200 is powered by a similar 199cc engine that is present in the erstwhile NS200. What makes this new model different from the NS is that it doles out 24.5PS of power with 18.6Nm of torque and has liquid cooling.
• The bike has 6-speed manual transmission just like the NS and its fuel efficiency is being rated at 55kmpl.
• The bike has a lot of features on offer for the price you will shell out for it. It has twin projector headlamps, mono-shock rear suspension, a service-due indicator and a whopping 300mm disc strapped onto the front MRF tire.
• The rear tire also has a disc and is protected by a Bosch single channel ABS system.

Kawasaki Ninja Z250 Specifications

Kawasaki Z 250

• The bike’s price is costlier since these bikes are brought to India as CKD (completely knocked down) units and the cost of local assembly shoots up the prices of this product apart from import costs.

Which one will you buy then? First of all, you cannot compare Bajaj with a Kawasaki! Don’t even dare to! Both of these bikes are made for very different audiences and road conditions.

These bikes will be sold through Bajaj’s pro-biking dealerships since Bajaj handles Kawasaki sales in India. They also handle KTM sales for KTM pro-bikes. It is now up to you to choose a bike that suits your fancy and makes you happy zipping through empty streets at night with flat-out speed.

We, however, advise you to go slow with whichever bike you eventually buy, speed kills!

The post Bajaj Pulsar 200SS Or The Kawasaki Ninja Z250 Which Bikes Sets Your Heart Racing? appeared first on Youngisthan.in.

The favourite bike of the enthusiastic youth of this world, the Kawasaki Ninja also called the “green monster” is set to turn green, not only on its exterior paint finish but eco-friendly “green”.

The iconic bike that has a thirty year history of being the most famous entry-level bike for enthusiasts is currently under modifications for an ‘electric motorcycle’ overhaul it seems according to a report by famous automotive website Visor Down.

Kawasaki Ninja

Report Details

• The report claims that some new patents have been filed by Kawasaki for electric modifications in their iconic model – the Ninja. Even the leaked blueprints and upscale designs of the bike seem to fortify this claim.

• There has been a lot of speculation since 2012 that the Japanese manufacturer was really close to cracking the all-electric racing motorcycle.

• There have been numerous electric bikes launched in the past by several other manufacturers, but this development is special since those bikes tend to be on the costlier side and this one may be targeted at the ‘beginner’ sporting bike category.

• The patent images show a bike that closely resembles a Ninja 300 and surprisingly comes with a clutch and gearbox, maybe to honour the traditional look and feel of the bike. Please note, that electric bikes have no specific traditional gearbox or clutch selection system, they purely rely on throttling via battery juice and run on automatic gearboxes.

• The recent reports of patents being registered Ninja E2 and E2R trademarks seem to be true since these reports claim that the company has filed about 10 such patents.

• According to the leaked images, the design of the bike suggests that the new electric bikes will have the new and improved trellis frame made out of tubular steel.

• The bike is expected to have lots of power in it since the battery power tends to give a massive boost to the bike when the throttle is opened, as compared to fuel powered bikes. The bike, will however be slower during straight-lining or overtaking maneuvers.

• The bikes are also considered to have a limited range since they tend to run out of charge, whereas fuel powered bikes offer more mileage.

This report, if true, is really a welcome move for electric bike enthusiasts who want to relish the power of the ‘green monster’ in an electric avatar. If, we look at the current generation of electric bikes, they have tremendous power within them even after being tagged an ‘electric’ bike due to advancements in battery technology.

Since the images show that the batteries can be swapped easily, this is a future proof bike that will endure its usage for the long run.

This “going-green” initiative by Kawasaki if renders out to be true in the future, is surely a blessing for planet Earth and its depleting fuel resources.
