The Bajaj Pulsar NS160 is all muscled naked designed sports model. The headlamp, tail lamp, fuel tank and body panel designed on iconic theme of Bajaj Pulsar series. But NS series have more muscle, curve and sharp edge than the rounded shape of old predator. Therefore Pulsar NS160 looks more aggressive and ferocious in appearance.

The engine also got two bikini air scoops for better air-cooling and a plastic belly pan which looks sportier. The significant point of attraction in NS160 is it also omitted the large size exhaust pipe. The under belly exhaust just has positioned behind the engine which has no extension after the swing-arm assembly.
Another change that is it omitted the conventional design of rear mud guard. Here it slashed and attached directly with swing-arm. It looks damn gorgeous with sharp design of rear panel covered with iconic slashed tail lamp.
Here we should mention the new headlamp assembly which is damn sharp and aggressive with chin attached two unique pilot lamps.
In addition the seat is designed sportier; it segmented but seems ensured the comfort issues. So overall Bajaj Pulsar NS160 got all the shades of NS200 which is still iconic but sharper and more aggressive.

The riding posture of Bajaj Pulsar NS160 is neither full sporty nor commuter styled upright. The riding posture is quite blended with upright and sporty mode. The handlebar of NS160 is split type but it positioned quite in upright mode where the grip height is lowered than the commuter upright mode.
On counter the rider seating position is upright but footrest position is quite in sporty mode. So riders have to ride the bike in semi-sports mode.

Bajaj Pulsar NS160 - Engine & Performance
The Bajaj Pulsar NS160 comes with all new 160.3cc engine. It comes quite in sequence of NS200 but of-course differs from NS150 or AS150 engine. Pulsar NS160 engine is a single cylinder, four-stroke engine.
