Bajaj Pulsar is the heart throb of every Indian motorhead. Launched in 2001, it quickly became the nation’s favourite & fast bike. For 25 years, this bike has ruled the two-wheeler market, constantly upgrading itself to match industry standards.
This time, they are back with yet another upgrade: LED headlamps and stunning new colours. In this blog, we will discuss the Pulsar 125 new model’s features, upgrades and price point. Let’s dig in!
The new Bajaj Pulsar 125 retains its muscular stance but looks sharper than ever. The biggest change is the latest LED headlamp and LED turn indicators, replacing the older halogen setup. This not only gives the bike a premium big-bike look but also significantly improves night-time visibility for you on the road.
You can now choose from 4 striking new colour options:
1. Black Grey
2. Black Racing Red
3. Black Cyan Blue
4. Racing Red with Tan Beige
These are complemented by refreshed graphics on the fuel tank, side panels and engine cowl. Thus, it stands out in a crowded parking lot.
The New Bajaj Pulsar 125 is available in 2 primary variants: the Carbon Fibre Single Seat and the Carbon Fibre Split Seat. Despite the addition of LED lighting and digital tech, Bajaj has priced the bike competitively to ensure it remains accessible.
The Bajaj Pulsar 125 new model prices are below:
1. Neon Single Seat Pulsar 125: Starting from ₹85,175
2. Carbon Fibre Single Seat: Starting from ₹92,320
3. Carbon Fibre Split Seat: ₹94,451
However, they are the ex-showroom prices in Delhi. The on-road cost can vary significantly based on location, road taxes and insurance costs. Bajaj General Insurance provides comprehensive two-wheeler insurance at an affordable rate, so you do not have to drain your bank to protect your investment.
Bajaj Auto continues to be the biggest two-wheeler provider in the 125 cc category. However, new buyers often get confused between the TVS Raider and the Bajaj Pulsar. Let’s help you understand which could suit you better:
Features | Bajaj Pulsar 125 | TVS Raider |
Design Philosophy | Iconic Pulsar silhouette, LED headlamps, and neon colours | Slim and futuristic bike, LED headlamp and vibrant profile |
Engine Tech | 4-Stroke, 2-Valve, Twin Spark BSVI Compliant DTS-i Engine | 3-Valve engine with IntelliGO (Auto start-stop tech) |
Weight (Kerb) | 144 kg to 146 kg | 123 kg |
ARAI Mileage | 57 kmpl | 56 kmpl |

As you can see, both are tough choices. However, if you want better mileage and feel, then the new Bajaj Pulsar with upgraded features will be the best choice. However, if you want a more futuristic look and riding modes, then the TVS Raider is ideal for you.
