This attractive iteration of the long-anticipated Pulsar 400 is enough to keep us occupied until the production-ready version arrives.
The digital iteration of the Bajaj Pulsar 400F has been conceptualized quite impressively by Abin Designs. Pulsar range of bikes is spawned across all the major segments in our market. People associate Pulsar with affordability, sportiness, style and performance. But a large 400-cc version is something that has been in the making for a long time now. The Pulsar fans are excited about the proposition, but the final product is still found missing from the impressive lineup of Bajaj. Let us experience it in the virtual format.

Bajaj Pulsar 400F Conceptualized
This particular digital iteration is as sporty as they come. The sharp headlight lends the fascia an aggressive demeanour. There is a digital screen as the centre console with all the information readily available. There is no wind-protecting glass and the handlebars look regular too. The side profile is dominated by the heavy fairing that envelopes the sculpted fuel tank as well. There are red and black body graphics which are typical of sportbikes. The split-seat consists of red stitching which gives the bike that edge. To protect the underbelly from getting scrapped, there is a blue protecting panel that has 400 written on it.

The front disc is massive and the rear tyre is extremely wide. In addition to that, the alloy wheel at the rear has been painted sky blue, which offers a unique road presence to the motorcycle. The tail-end and the side body panels on this bike offer a rugged and bold appearance which is what to be expected from the Pulsar 400, if and when it arrives in the metal.

Specs
Taking reference from the Dominar 400, one could conclude that the Pulsar 400 would be great with the 373-cc fuel-injected engine that would produce 43 PS and 35 Nm of peak power and torque. To complement this engine would be a 6-speed transmission. A dual-channel ABS must be standard with this bike along with the projector LED headlamps and taillamp. The bike must cost upwards of Rs 1.70 lakh, ex-showroom. KTM RC 390, Ninja 300, Benelli TNT300, Yamaha R3 and TVS Apache RR310 are some of the key players in the segment.
