The 2026 Bajaj Pulsar 125 Highlights

While the iconic muscular silhouette remains, the 2026 Bajaj Pulsar 125 gets three major functional upgrades:

1. All-LED Lighting: Gone are the days of the yellow halogen glow. The 2026 model adopts a sleek LED headlamp with integrated DRLs and LED turn indicators, similar to its bigger sibling, the Pulsar 150.

2. Fully Digital Console: The cockpit now features a reverse monochrome LCD display. It’s not just for show; it comes with Bluetooth connectivity, allowing for call and SMS alerts, a gear position indicator, and “Distance to Empty” (DTE) readouts.

3. Refreshed Aesthetics: New carbon-fiber-inspired graphics and four distinct color schemes give the bike a more “Gen-Z” vibe without losing its “Classic Pulsar” DNA.

Mileage and Range

Let’s be honest: in India, mileage is king. The Pulsar 125 strikes a logical balance between “sporty” and “sensible.”

• Real-World City Mileage: 50 to 52 kmpl

• Highway Mileage: Up to 55 kmpl

• Full Tank Range: Approximately 570 km to 600 km on a single fill.

To get the best mileage, keep your digital “Gear Indicator” in mind and avoid aggressive revving in lower gears. The DTS-i engine is most efficient between 4000 and 6000 rpm.

Available Colours

The 2026 Bajaj Pulsar 125 lineup introduces bold new graphic treatments. The official color options for the LED variants include:

1. Black Grey: For the “Dark Knight” enthusiasts.

2. Black Racing Red: The classic “Fast” look.

3. Black Cyan Blue: Modern and strikingly different.

4. Racing Red with Tan Beige: A premium, sophisticated finish.

Safety 

While it doesn’t offer ABS (Anti-lock Braking System)—which is standard on the NS125—it uses a highly effective Combi Brake System (CBS).

• Front Brake: 240 mm Disc

• Rear Brake: 130 mm Drum

• Suspension (Front): Telescopic Forks

• Suspension (Rear): Twin Gas-Charged Shock Absorbers (Nitrox)

You might ask, “Why not the TVS Raider or the Honda SP 125?”

Logic says those bikes are lighter and perhaps slightly more “gadgety.” However, the 2026 Bajaj Pulsar 125 wins on build quality and road presence.
