Engine Displacement: 249.07 cc
The Pulsar N250 features a 249.07 cc single-cylinder, 4-stroke, SOHC, 2-valve engine. Unlike the liquid-cooled NS series, this uses a high-efficiency oil-cooling system. This choice simplifies maintenance while providing superior heat management for city traffic and long highway stretches in Nepal.
Max Power: 24.5 PS @ 8750 rpm
It produces a peak power of 24.5 PS at 8800 rpm. The power delivery is intentionally smooth and linear, designed to offer a mature riding experience that doesn't feel intimidating to riders stepping up from the 150cc segment.
Max Torque: 21.5 Nm @ 6500 rpm
With 21.5 Nm of torque peaking at 6500 rpm, the N250 is known for its "tractability." You can stay in a higher gear at lower speeds without the engine knocking, which is a major advantage on Nepal's inclined and congested roads.
No. of Cylinders: 1
The single-cylinder architecture ensures the bike remains slim between the rider's legs. It is designed for mechanical longevity and lower service costs compared to multi-cylinder engines in the same displacement bracket.
Valve Train: SOHC, 2-Valve
While many competitors move to DOHC, Bajaj uses a Single Overhead Camshaft (SOHC) 2-valve setup here. This configuration is optimized for better low-end and mid-range "grunt," making the N250 more practical for real-world street riding than track use.
Fuel System: Fuel Injection (FI)
Standard Fuel Injection (FI) provides crisp throttle response and ensures the bike meets BS6/Euro 5 emission norms. The system also assists in maintaining consistent performance as you climb from the Terai plains to the hills of Nepal.
Top Speed: 132 km/h
The N250 can reach a top speed of 132 km/h. Its aerodynamic front cowl and LED projector setup are designed to keep the rider stable and visible at these higher cruising speeds.
Mileage: 35–40 kmpl
In real-world conditions, riders can expect a mileage of 35–40 kmpl. For a 250cc motorcycle, this is highly competitive, allowing for a balanced mix of performance and daily fuel economy.
