Bajaj has loosened its hold on the concept of parts sharing. At the 12th Auto Expo 2014 Bajaj unveiled the new Pulsars, the Pulsar SS400 (Super Sport) and the Pulsar CS400 (Cruising Sport) poles apart with regard to their design philosophy.
The SS400 will be available by the end of this year while the CS400 might take some time. Expect these babies to be priced competitively, we’re hoping just under the 2 Lakh mark.
Bajaj’s popular home-grown motorcycles, India’s most loved Pulsars are to get bigger, better and racier in days to come. It’s known the faired SS200 ‘junior supersports’ bike will be the very next Pulsar to hit our roads in weeks to come, but other Pulsar variants displayed at the Auto Expo tell us we can expect more excitement as the SS400 and slick looking naked CS400 evolve on Bajaj R&D (known as Ahead) drawing boards, to roll-in at different points in future.
The SS400 and only just unveiled CS400 are new Pulsar bikes that will run 375cc powerplants derived from the 390 Duke engine, after suitable tweaks are incorporated to match their new personalities.
The faired-in SS200 and SS400 Pulsars are to be bold new segment drivers on Indian roads, offering biking enthusiasts here a level of style and performance never previously available from Pulsars, while the CS400 will be a power cruiser, with smoother lines and minimal bodywork.
The SS Pulsar bikes sport a set of aggressive, dual-headlights that peer ahead meanly, where the Pulsar CS400 shows off a single, purposeful looking headlight. Clip-on handlebars are standard on SS models, where the CS400 will rely on a flat set handlebar. All these new Pulsars will show-off plenty of lightweight alloy parts.
Sporty, compact cockpit layouts are the norm on these next generation bikes, with comprehensive, well laid out instruments and Bajaj-typical top drawer switchgear.
The price and specifications of the new pulsar SS400 and CS400 will be updated soon.
