Bajaj Auto is gearing up to launch the all-new Pulsar 125 on August 12, with the motorcycle already spotted in showrooms. This model showcases significant upgrades, including a rear monoshock suspension and a larger color LCD screen with Bluetooth connectivity.1234

The design has evolved from the Classic Pulsar 125, featuring sharper LED headlights and a modernized LED tail light—the first update since 2006. The bike's frame appears to be tubular steel, with the engine acting as a stressed member, and it rides on 17-inch alloy wheels with tubeless tires.56

In terms of performance, the engine is expected to be a 124.38cc single-cylinder unit, similar to the current model, producing 11.8 PS and 10.8 Nm of torque, mated to a 5-speed gearbox. The fuel tank capacity remains at 15L, providing ample range for riders.

Bajaj is likely to price the Pulsar 125 competitively, estimated between ₹80,000 to ₹85,000 ex-showroom, positioning it against rivals like the TVS Raider. With its sporty design and advanced features, the Pulsar 125 aims to capture attention in a competitive market.

Key Insight
“The new 125 is the first in the Classic Pulsar lineup to get a rear mono-shock, and the tail-light redesign is the first update to that line since UG3 in 2006. Bajaj is expected to price it around ₹80,000–₹85,000 ex-showroom, where it will face rivals such as the TVS Raider.”
