Refreshed Bajaj Pulsar NS200 and Pulsar NS160 launched in India

Both motorcycles now feature 33mm upside-down forks at the front. This should help improve handling, cornering and stability.

The display console now has a gear indicator, a readout for distance to empty, instantaneous fuel economy and average fuel economy.

In terms of safety, both bikes now come with dual-channel ABS. There is a 300mm disc at the front and a 230mm disc at the rear. The NS160 now gets wider front and rear tires. They come in sizes 100/80-17 and 130/70-17.
