Bajaj Pulsar 180F has been launched to provide the buyers with a tall and faired bike under Rs 1 Lakh. So, here are some differences between the 180F and 220F.
Bajaj Pulsar 220F debuted the Indian market 7-8 years back and instantly became a hit amongst the millenial. Its tall semi-faired design made it look like a sportsbike, ofcourse with the its grunty engine.
Since its first launch, not much has changed with the bike. Some visual upgrades and a revised feature list is what it has got over the years. It is priced over Rs 1 Lakh, now with single-channel ABS.
The new Bajaj Pulsar 180F has already started reaching the showrooms. It is an additional variant based on the Pulsar 180. Due to its identical looks with Pulsar 150, Bajaj sought to give something different with the 180cc engines.
