The dual spark design accelerates and evens out flame propagation, which results in more efficient combustion and hence leads to better performance.Pulsar's 200cc engine delivers maximum power of 18bhp at 8000 rpm and a torque of 17.68 Nm at 6000 rpm. It looks great with its mean muscular aerodynamic shape.
Pros:
1) Superb power. It gives great pickup even at higher speeds (80 kmph and above). I have never felt the sound that comes when you slow your pulsar 200 in higher gears and suddenly tops the speed. Company claims the top speed as 130 kmph with 67 kg rider. Though I have touched a high speed of 118 kmph only. May be sometimes later I will get the chance to touch 125 kmph or more mark.
2) Looks: The looks are awsome and no doubt its the smartest pulsar 200 on Indian roads. It is really mean in looks and style.
3) Pulsor 200 has most of the advanced features like digital speedometer, oil cooled engine, tubeless tyres etc. The big rear tyres gives you some extra grip on the road.
4) Balance: The pulsar 200 is very balanced and recalls the movement of Bullet pulsar 200s. Though at speeds more than 85-90 kmph, it start with light vibrations but overall stability remains good. At higher speeds (80 and more), it gives you the sweetest growl of racing pulsar 200s and that feels amazing when you drive the pulsar 200.
5) Pulsor 200 comes with ignition start only in line with racing pulsar 200s. Infact one could never expect a racing pulsar 200 to start with a kick.
Cons:
1)- Cost: Power charges money so is the pulsar 200. It cost you around 76.5K on roads in Mumbai. Though if you compare with its peers like Karizma and Pulsor220, its a lot cheaper.
2)- Fuel Efficiency: This pulsar 200 is strictly not for people who look for a good mileage. Mine gives a mileage of 37-38 kmpl in mumbai traffic conditions. I would expect the pulsar 200 to even perform better in smaller cities with mannered driving habit and could give you around 40-45 kmpl but expecting more than that from a 200cc engine is a misery.
3)- Comfort: Here is an alert for people who travels too much on pulsar 200 or have to be on pulsar 200 for longer durations. This pulsar 200 is absolutely for racing experience and not designed to provide comfort. So if you want comfort, you should be looking towards other pulsar 200s like Honda Unicorn or Splendor. Again it is not designed in a manner that two persons can sit comfortably. Sitting to rear is a risk as the seat is high and lacks support for holding.
4)- P200 dosen’t come with a kickstart option. For some it may be a thing to consider. But as per my experience, the kick start is not at all required.
5)- Though tyres give nice grip in dry conditions, they are not very efficient in wet surfaces. So there is a word of caution for riders when they go on a wet surface at high speeds.
