Bajaj launches super sports bike

March 26, 2015 10:08 pm | Updated 10:08 pm IST - MUMBAI:

In a move that could grow the super sports bike segment, Bajaj Auto, on Thursday launched its all new super sports bike, the Bajaj Pulsar RS 200.

According to a company statement, the bike has a 4-valve Triple Spark DTSi 200cc engine with fuel injection and liquid cooling, 300 mm disc brakes (with ABS option) and a perimeter frame. It is priced at Rs.1.19 lakh, and Rs.1.30 lakh for the ABS (anti-lock braking system) version (prices ex-showroom Maharashtra), and is available at select company dealerships.

The super sports segment accounts for less than one per cent of the motorcycle market, and Bajaj expects the new Pulsar to re-define and expand the segment. Launched in 2001, the Pulsar sells more than 55,000 units per month with a 43 per cent share in the sports bike segment.
