Latest Update: Bajaj has now passed the benefits of the lower GST slab on to customers and reduced the price of the NS400Z to Rs 1.80 lakh (ex-showroom).
To take advantage of the 18% GST slab, Bajaj Auto has introduced the Pulsar NS400Z with a downsized 350cc engine, priced the same at Rs 1,93,900 (ex-showroom). While the biggest update lies at the heart of the bike, the bike remains visually unchanged.
New Heart, Same Skin
The flagship Pulsar is now powered by a smaller 349cc, liquid-cooled engine, which has the same bore but shorter stroke than the outgoing 373cc unit. This results in a reduction in power and torque by 2.4PS and 1.8Nm, respectively. Here’s a look at its specifications: –
Bajaj Pulsar NS400Z | New |
| Engine | 349cc |
| Bore | 89mm |
| Stroke | 56.1mm |
| Power | 40.6PS at 9,000rpm |
| Torque | 33.2Nm at 7,500rpm |
| Gearbox | 6-speed with bidirectional quickshifter, slip-and-assist clutch” |
