The headturner new bajaj pulsar 220Dtsfi



Before the introduction of the Pulsar, the Indian motorcycle market trend was towards fuel efficient, small capacity motorcycles (that formed the 80-125 cc class). Bigger motorcycles with higher capacity virtually did not exist (except for Enfield Bullet). The launch and success of Hero Honda CBZ in 1999 showed that there was demand for performance bikes. Bajaj took the cue from there on and launched the Pulsar twins in India on November 24, 2001. The Pulsars excited segments of Indian youth, mainly due to a muscular shape and stylish design[2] as well as its powerful engine (in Indian context) at reasonable fuel efficiency and affordable cost.

Now, the Pulsar has completely took the Indian 2 Wheeler Industry By storm.Now lets talk abt the newly launched Bajaj Pulsar Dtsfi.Here is the specifications:
