Bajaj Pulsar 200NS goes International

India's second largest bike maker Bajaj Auto is expanding its horizons, it has developed JVs with some international brands like KTM and Kawasaki, and exporting bikes in international markets as well. Bajaj is selling its bikes in emerging markets like Latin America and South East Asia, and in these markets Bajaj’s flagship Pulsar series bikes has made a good following as well. Now, there are reports that Bajaj is planning to export its latest Pulsar series bike, Pulsar 200 NS to Indonesia. The Pulsar 200 NS is the most advanced Pulsar in the Bajaj line up, its Triple Spark, four valve, liquid cooled engine is the first of its kind. The Pulsar 200 NS is doing well in domestic market due to its aggressive pricing and if Bajaj pitches the bike with such precision in Indonesian market, they will mark a milestone there as well.

Bajaj has already announced that they are going to start export Pulsar 200NS to Latin America and South Asian countries. Pulsar 200 NS shares its engine technology with the Duke 200 including the 6 speed gearbox. However, the Pulsar 200 NS gets different gear ratios making it a better and more relaxed engine rather than the sporty nature of the Duke 200′s mill. The Pulsar 200 NS also features Triple Spark Ignition, ExhuasTEC and four valve-head, which are missing in the Duke 200. The Pulsar 200 NS also features the monoshock rear suspension and a twin spar frame, adopted from the Duke 200. These features make Pulsar 200NS the best bike among the Pulsar series bikes and improved the riding and handling upto a major extent. It is expected that Kawasaki will take care of sales and service of Pulsar 200 NS in Indonesia

For the Indian market Bajaj is planning to launch a 100cc high performance bike and then the company is to launch a more powerful 375cc bike based on the Pulsar 200 NS platform. The new motorcycle is expected to feature a 373cc single cylinder engine, derived from the Upcoming Duke 390, with heavy designing cues from the same.
