What’s the NS400 all about?
Preliminary reports suggest that the Pulsar NS400 might borrow its chassis from the NS200 model. This perimeter frame, known for its robustness, could be enhanced to accommodate the larger engine of the NS400. This may lead to a marginal increase in weight, but the essence of the NS design will likely remain intact.
The anticipated engine for this model could be the 373cc version seen in the Dominar 400. It's a single-cylinder liquid-cooled powerhouse that boasts of 39.4 BHP and 35 Nm. Additionally, a 6-speed gearbox is expected to be a part of this new machine.
Styling and design: A nod to the NS legacy
The NS400 is rumored to carry forward the design legacy of the NS range. If true, we might witness a sporty, streamlined appearance with distinctive features like a bikini fairing, sleek tail section, and tank extensions. Modern amenities such as a digital console, potential Bluetooth connectivity, and possibly an LED headlamp might set this model apart. The recent addition of a USD fork to the NS200, giving it a bulkier look, might also find its way to the NS400.
Positioning and pricing: A competitive edge?
Speculations hint that the NS400 will be priced lower than the Dominar 400, making it a competitive entry in the 400cc segment in India. However, with no official confirmation on the pricing or the exact features, it remains a topic of keen interest for bike enthusiasts.
Final thoughts
While the anticipation surrounding the Bajaj Pulsar NS400 is palpable, it's essential to note that all the details mentioned are based on rumors. Bajaj has yet to make an official statement about this model. Until then, the motorbike community will eagerly wait for more concrete news about this potential game-changer in the 400cc segment.
