The recently updated Pulsar N models – the N160 and the 2024 N250 – share the same design language, and the upcoming Pulsar N125 will likely follow suit. This means that it will come with similar split seats, a shrouded and muscular fuel tank, and LED DRLs with the central projector headlamp. The N125 is further expected to ride on twin-spoke alloy wheels.
For the N125, Bajaj is expected to carry over the same 125 cc single-cylinder, air-cooled engine that powers the Pulsar 125. However, this should receive a sportier tune to live up to the expectations from the N range. On the Pulsar 125, the engine produces 11.6 bhp at 8,500 rpm and 10.8 Nm of torque at 6,500 rpm. The N125 is further expected to have its motor paired to a constant mesh five-speed gearbox.
The Bajaj Pulsar N125 is expected to feature standard telescopic front forks and a rear mono shock. The motorcycle is expected to feature combi-braking, with the higher-end variants getting single-channel ABS. The base model is expected to feature drum brakes at the rear.
For its tech package, the Pulsar N125 is expected to be fitted with an all-digital console that features Bluetooth connectivity. This instrument console should be similar to that found on the recently updated N160, where it displays information such as fuel consumption and gear position. The N160’s digital console further features turn-by-turn navigation, call accept and reject, and ABS mode select, and these functions can be operated through integrated buttons on the handlebars.
Upon release, the Bajaj Pulsar N125 is expected to be positioned as the entry-level model to the N range and will be slotted below the N160 and N250. While there are no specific numbers that have been confirmed, the N125 should fall within the price range of the TVS Raider 125 and the Hero Xtreme 125 R. The Raider 125 is listed from ₹84,869 (ex-showroom) for the base drum brake variant to ₹1.04 lakh for the top-spec SX. The Xtreme 125 R is listed from ₹95,000 (ex-showroom) to ₹99,500 (ex-showroom). With the current Pulsar 125 being priced from ₹92,883 (ex-showroom), it is reasonable for the N125 to be priced up to ₹1.05 lakh, with a drum brake variant coming in at ₹85,000.
