The prices for the upcoming variant with the split rear-sear design will see an expected premium of Rs 3k to Rs 5k.
It was just last month that Bajaj brought the new and affordable Pulsar 125 in the market and it was only available in a single trim, Neon. Now, recent spy shots reveal that Bajaj Pulsar 125 will get a new colour shade and will get the split seat design.
The split seat design was first seen on the Bajaj Pulsar 220cc followed by the discontinued 200 and then to 180, 150 and now to the most affordable 125. Also, with the split set design, the 125cc motorcycle will also be launched in a new paint shade.
The new model sports new graphics, paint shade and decals along with the signature split rear-seat design. There are reports that some dealers across India are accepting the bookings for the new variant and it is expected to cost Rs 3k to 5k more premium than the regular 125cc.
