Bajaj Pulsar N160 Overview

The Pulsar N160 is an everyday naked bike whose appeal lies in safety and commuter-friendly equipment, not class-leading power. Its 165 cc engine makes 15.68 bhp and 14.65 Nm. A 14-litre tank and 51.6 kmpl claimed mileage suit regular commuting, though mileage remains a manufacturer's claim, not a real-world guarantee. Both wheels get disc brakes, and the dual-channel ABS option helps prevent either wheel locking under hard braking.

Against the TVS Apache RTR 160 4V, it gives up power (15.68 bhp versus 17.31 bhp) but has higher claimed mileage (51.6 versus 41.4 kmpl). At 148–152 kg, it is heavier than the listed Apache, Yamaha FZ V3 and Honda SP160. Bluetooth, turn-by-turn navigation, USB charging and four riding modes add useful everyday tech. Its 795 mm seat is slightly higher than the FZ V3's 790 mm, while the dual-channel ABS choice is a meaningful safety upgrade over the base version.

  • 51.6 kmpl claimed mileage can help stretch fuel between fill-ups; actual mileage may vary.
  • Optional dual-channel ABS helps prevent both wheels from locking under hard braking.
  • Front and rear disc brakes provide braking hardware at both ends.
  • The 14-litre tank is larger than the listed Apache, FZ V3 and SP160 tanks.
  • Bluetooth, turn-by-turn navigation and USB charging add everyday convenience.

What we like

  • Dual-channel ABS is available as an option.
  • Disc brakes are fitted at both ends.
  • The 14-litre tank is larger than those of several listed rivals.
  • Bluetooth, navigation and USB charging are useful commuter features.

What could be better

  • The base variant has single-channel ABS; dual-channel ABS requires choosing a higher variant.
  • At 148–152 kg, it is heavier than the listed Apache RTR 160 4V, FZ V3 and SP160.
  • It makes less power than the TVS Apache RTR 160 4V.

Best for: The Pulsar N160 suits commuters who want useful everyday tech, front and rear disc brakes, and the option of dual-channel ABS.
