The Bajaj Pulsar NS160 is a powerhouse in the entry-level premium commuter segment in Nepal, designed for riders who crave the aggressive styling of the NS200 but with better fuel efficiency. The updated 2026 model brings significant hardware improvements, most notably the inclusion of Upside Down (USD) front forks and a dual-channel ABS system, making it one of the safest and most stable bikes in its class. Built on the race-bred perimeter frame, it offers high torsional stiffness and low flex, providing sharp handling that is ideal for navigating the crowded streets of Kathmandu or the winding roads of the hills.
The bike is powered by a refined 160.3cc oil-cooled engine that features Bajaj's patented DTS-i technology, delivering a punchy 17 PS of power. Modernization continues in the cockpit with a new fully digital LCD instrument console that includes a gear position indicator, distance-to-empty readout, and Bluetooth connectivity for turn-by-turn navigation and mobile alerts. With its muscular tank, sleek LED DRLs, and wider tires for better grip, the Pulsar NS160 remains a top choice for young enthusiasts in Nepal who want a "naked sports" experience without compromising on daily practicality.
