Bajaj Pulsar NS400Z: Bajaj has taken the Pulsar game to an all-new level with the launch of the Pulsar NS400Z 2025. Positioned as the flagship of the Pulsar family, this new model is built to impress riders who crave raw power, cutting-edge tech, and aggressive design. With a blend of performance and everyday usability, the NS400Z is set to redefine the 400cc streetfighter segment in India.
Striking and Sporty Design
From the very first glance, the NS400Z makes a bold statement. The bike gets a muscular body profile with sharp lines and an aggressive stance. The new LED projector headlamp paired with Z-shaped DRLs not only enhances visibility but also gives it a unique road presence.
The sculpted fuel tank and aerodynamic side fairings add to its sporty attitude, while premium gold USD forks make the motorcycle look more upscale. Bajaj offers it in eye-catching shades like Brooklyn Black, Racing Red, Metallic White, and Pewter Grey, giving riders plenty of options to match their personality.
Engine and Performance
At the heart of the Pulsar NS400Z lies a 373cc liquid-cooled, single-cylinder engine that churns out 43 PS at 8,800 rpm and 35 Nm of torque at 6,500 rpm. Mated to a 6-speed gearbox, it also features a standard slipper clutch and bi-directional quickshifter, ensuring smooth gear transitions.
The performance figures are equally impressive 0 to 100 km/h in just 6.4 seconds and a top speed of around 157 km/h. The ride-by-wire system ensures precise throttle response, making the bike suitable for both city rides and highway sprints.
Loaded With Modern Features
Bajaj hasn’t held back on features, and the NS400Z reflects that. Riders get:
- Four Riding Modes: Rain, Road, Sport, and Off-Road
- Dual-Channel ABS with high-performance sintered brake pads
- Traction Control System, switchable depending on the mode
- Bluetooth-enabled LCD Console with turn-by-turn navigation, call alerts, and lap timer
- Standard Quickshifter, particularly effective in Sport mode
These additions make the bike not just powerful, but also extremely rider-friendly.
Comfort and Handling
Despite being a performance-focused motorcycle, the NS400Z hasn’t compromised on comfort. Built on a perimeter frame, it weighs 174 kg, which makes it nimble for its class. The 43mm USD front forks and a monoshock rear suspension with preload adjustment provide stability and comfort on uneven Indian roads.
With a seat height of 807 mm, it remains accessible to most riders. The 168 mm ground clearance ensures the bike can take on speed breakers and rough patches without worry. Adding to this are 150-section Apollo Alpha H1 tyres, which provide excellent grip and confidence during cornering.
Price and Value
The Bajaj Pulsar NS400Z 2025 comes at an aggressive price point, staying true to Bajaj’s tradition of offering value-packed motorcycles. Prices start from around ₹1.92 lakh and go up to ₹2.16 lakh (ex-showroom, depending on city and variant). This makes it one of the most affordable yet powerful 400cc streetfighters available in the Indian market.
Final Verdict
With its muscular design, feature-rich package, and thrilling performance, the Bajaj Pulsar NS400Z 2025 is a dream machine for enthusiasts who want a perfect mix of daily usability and adrenaline-filled rides. It is stylish enough to turn heads, powerful enough to challenge the competition, and priced well within reach of passionate riders.
