## Bajaj Pulsar 125 — Overview
The Bajaj Pulsar 125 is a commuter bike available at a price range of Rs. 82,420 - Rs. 94,768 in India. It comes in 4 variants and 8 colours. It is powered by a 124.4 cc BS6 Phase 2 engine and has a  user reported mileage of 50 kmpl. With front disc and rear drum brakes,  the Bajaj Pulsar 125 comes with combined braking system on both wheels. The Pulsar 125 bike weighs 140 kg and has a fuel tank capacity of 11.5 liters. It develops a power output of 11.64 bhp and a torque of 10.8 Nm.

The Bajaj Pulsar 125 does one thing better than any other 125cc motorcycle in India: it makes you feel like you're riding something bigger than you actually are. At 11.8 bhp, it's the most powerful 125cc currently on sale - more than the Honda SP 125, more than the TVS Raider, more than the Hero Xtreme 125R. Starting at Rs 82,420 for the Neon Single Seat and going up to Rs 94,768 for the Carbon Fibre Split Seat LED, it's priced above most commuter 125s but justifies the premium with Pulsar DNA - aggressive styling, a punchy engine, and features like alloy wheels with tubeless tyres across the range. It's not the most fuel-efficient 125cc (Honda SP 125 wins that battle), and it doesn't have ABS (nobody in this segment does). But if you're 18, riding daily in Bangalore or Delhi, and want a 125cc that feels alive rather than dutiful, the Pulsar 125 makes a very strong case.

## Bajaj Pulsar 125 — Pros & Cons

**What We Like**
- ✓ Most powerful 125cc in India at 11.8 bhp - noticeably peppier than Honda SP 125 and Hero Glamour in city traffic
- ✓ Real-world mileage of 50-58 kmpl is excellent for its performance level - not a penalty for the extra power
- ✓ Tubeless alloy wheels across all variants - more practical than tube-type spoke wheels on rivals
- ✓ Four variants from Rs 82,420 to Rs 94,768 give buyers flexibility to match budget and feature preference

**What Could Be Better**
- ✗ No ABS on any variant - CBS is the only safety system, which is a genuine gap at this price in 2026
- ✗ Vibration above 70 kmph makes sustained highway riding uncomfortable - this is a city bike
- ✗ Chain requires frequent attention - slack develops quickly in the first few thousand kilometres

## Should You Buy the Bajaj Pulsar 125?
The Bajaj Pulsar 125 is the right 125cc for a rider who wants performance character over commuter efficiency. The 11.8 bhp engine gives it a spirited quality that Honda SP 125 and Hero Glamour simply don't have at this displacement. For daily city commuting under 50 km, it's an excellent machine - comfortable, fuel-efficient enough, and fun. Don't buy it as a highway tourer; the vibration will wear you down. And budget a few hundred rupees for chain maintenance every 2,000-3,000 km. For everything else, it earns its price.

## FAQs

**What is the price of Bajaj Pulsar 125 in Delhi?**
Bajaj Pulsar 125 is available in 4 variants in Delhi: Neon Single Seat at Rs 82,420, Neon Single Seat LED at Rs 88,153, Carbon Fibre Single Seat LED at Rs 92,697, and Carbon Fibre Split Seat LED at Rs 94,768 - all ex-showroom. On-road prices are approximately Rs 96,000-1,10,000 depending on variant and insurance.

**What is the real-world mileage of Bajaj Pulsar 125?**
Bajaj Pulsar 125 has an ARAI-certified mileage of 51.46 kmpl. In real-world city riding, owners consistently report 50-55 kmpl. On highways at steady speeds, mileage can improve to 55-58 kmpl. This is strong for a 125cc with 11.8 bhp power output.

**Does Bajaj Pulsar 125 have ABS?**
No - the Bajaj Pulsar 125 does not have ABS on any variant. All variants come with CBS (Combined Braking System) which links the front and rear brakes. The front gets a 240mm disc and the rear a 130mm drum. ABS is not available even on the top Carbon Fibre variant.

**Which Pulsar 125 variant is the best to buy?**
The Neon Single Seat LED at Rs 88,153 offers the best value - you get LED headlamp and instrument lighting over the base variant for about Rs 5,700 more. The Carbon Fibre variants (Rs 92,697-94,768) add carbon-fibre graphics and a sportier look but no mechanical upgrade. If budget allows, the LED Neon is the sweet spot.

**What is the EMI for Bajaj Pulsar 125?**
For the base Neon Single Seat at Rs 82,420 ex-showroom, with a Rs 10,000 down payment and a 3-year loan at 9-10% interest, the monthly EMI is approximately Rs 2,400-2,600. The top Carbon Fibre Split Seat LED at Rs 94,768 works out to approximately Rs 2,800-3,000/month on the same terms.

**Is Bajaj Pulsar 125 good for highway riding?**
The Bajaj Pulsar 125 is best suited for city commuting rather than highway riding. Above 70 kmph, noticeable engine vibration sets in and the 124cc engine feels strained at sustained highway speeds. For daily city runs and occasional inter-city trips under 100 km, it performs excellently. For regular highway use, consider the Pulsar NS160 or NS200.

**What is the service cost and interval for Bajaj Pulsar 125?**
Bajaj Pulsar 125 requires service every 3,000 km or 3 months, whichever comes first. First service is free at authorised Bajaj service centres. Subsequent services cost approximately Rs 500-900 including labour. Annual maintenance (3-4 services) comes to Rs 1,500-3,000, making it one of the most affordable 125cc bikes to service.

**Bajaj Pulsar 125 vs TVS Raider 125 - which is better?**
The Bajaj Pulsar 125 (Rs 82,420-94,768) has more power at 11.8 bhp and stronger Pulsar brand identity. The TVS Raider 125 (~Rs 84,490) is lighter (123 kg vs 140 kg), has better torque delivery for city use, and a more contemporary design. Choose the Pulsar for the performance feel; choose the Raider for lighter handling and modern features.
