We might be on track to experience the new flagship model from Bajaj in the form of the Pulsar NS400 and RS400. There have been many reports floating around for a while now, suggesting the arrival of the new flagship product from the two-wheeler giant. Pulsar is a household name in India for years now. Bajaj makes sure that it offers some model of the Pulsar in all major categories in our market. If there is one segment which is not dominated by Pulsar, it is the 400-cc space. Sure, there is the Dominar 400. But it has never achieved as much success as Bajaj would’ve liked. Here are two renditions which could inform us about what the new Pulsar could look like.

Specs
Since Bajaj already has the Dominar 400 in their lineup, it’s reasonable to anticipate that the 400cc Pulsar will also share the same powertrain. This motorcycle comes with a 373-cc fuel-injected engine that delivers an impressive 43 PS of power and 35 Nm of peak torque. It’s coupled with a 6-speed transmission for seamless gear shifts. Notably, the bike comes with dual-channel ABS as a standard feature to enhance safety. In terms of pricing, the Dominar 400 starts at a minimum of Rs 2.30 lakh, ex-showroom. In this segment, it faces stiff competition from bikes such as the KTM RC 390, Ninja 300, Benelli TNT300, Yamaha R3, and TVS Apache RR310.
