The Bajaj Pulsar 220F has one of the most iconic designs in the Indian market and has basically remained the same in terms of design since its launch in 2007. The same fairing has now been transplanted onto the Pulsar 180 and Bajaj has also added the ‘F' moniker suffix to it.

The Pulsar 180F is yet another attempt by Bajaj to revive the age-old Pulsar 180 and keep sales going. The most recent major update Bajaj had made to the Pulsar 180 was the addition of a disc brake at the rear, and now, the looks have been changed.

The turn signal indicators are placed a little below and the fald fairing extends till the fuel tank. Everywhere else, the Pulsar 180F remains the same as the standard model.

The Pulsar 180F will be launched at a reported price of Rs 86,500 (ex-showroom), Rs 1,500 more than the standard Pulsar 180.

Thoughts On Pulsar 180F Launch In India

Bajaj has cleverly and clearly spaced out its models. Though it is difficult to spot tell one Pulsar model from another from a distance, there is something for everyone in the Pulsar range. Now, with the launch of the Pulsar 180F, the company has allowed for a more premium design in a lower price bracket.

The Pulsar 180F will sell well, and maybe even outsell the Pulsar 220F. The Pulsar 220F though will continue to remain in a league of its own.
