The Pulsar is built for passionate, extended rides. The large contoured tank complements the tight surface lines that lets the rider tuck their knees into the tank body, man becoming one with machine. 43mm front fork suspension with hydraulic damping creates the ideal, stress-free riding triangle, accentuating the ride quality. The dual-spring mono-shock suspension nested centrally under the seat turns every long ride into a favourite adventure. Rubber grabs and grips coupled with a sophisticated German seat material, this is the dawn of a new age of power and panache.
Extreme exhilaration backed by the ultimate in safety technology. And that’s what shows right from the ride quality to the build to the features of this machine. The twin channel Anti-Lock Braking System gives you all the confidence you need to dominate every street the low-profile, wide radial tyres let you conquer every corner in style. They keep the ride grounded without taking away the ride feel. To keep your sight clear, the Vertical Auto Headlamp On (AHO) system lights up the night seamlessly.

Pulsar 220 manages to meet the new emission norms without reverting to the more expensive technology. Bajaj engineers have added more maps in the CDI unit which has now risen from two in the older motor to five in the new engine. The bore and stroke haven’t been changed but the new engine gets an air-injection system that infuses cooler air into the exhaust gases and reduces the emission of harmful gases. Other emission norms related changes include Evaporative Emission Control System (EVAP), bigger catalytic converter, while the intake and exhaust manifold has been completely redesigned.
