Bajaj intends to introduce the brand-new Pulsar N150 in India by the end of this month. However, before the planned introduction, pictures of the motorcycle arriving at dealerships emerged online. It has been revealed that the new Bajaj bike would be a Pulsar P150 dressed as a Pulsar N160. Hence, the N150 will mechanically resemble the P150 and cosmetically adopt the N160. It is expected to have a tyre-hugger, a single-piece grab rail, a bright projector LED headlight, streetfighter-type bodywork, and a slim tail section. Furthermore, it is anticipated that the new bike will feature an underbelly exhaust and a kick-start lever that is similar to that of the Bajaj Pulsar P150. The bike has been spotted in two colours, red and white. At this point, there isn't much information available regarding the bike, but more details are expected to emerge as the launch date nears.
