Aftermarket bike modification houses have evolved so much that they can make a Bajaj Pulsar look like a Ducati Panigale.
In this unbelievable video, a Bajaj Pulsar RS200 is shown after being converted into a Ducati Panigale superbike. Now, you might have seen some minor bike modifications done to make regular bikes look cool. But this particular version is unique and impressive because the entire exterior has been upgraded so much so that the donor model is no longer recognizable. Let us take a detailed view of all the upgrades that have been made to Pulsar in order to raise it to the superbike status.

Ducati Panigale or Bajaj Pulsar?
The visuals represent what a stellar job the bike modifier has done to transform a regular mass-market bike into a premium superbike. The very first observation that one could make is the sheer increase in the size of the bike due to all the body panels. The front fascia features a sharp headlamp unit with a compact wind protection glass, sky blue colour with black body graphics, which is a common theme across the exterior. In fact, the front panel is so massive that the actual headlights are not visible at all (they are concealed under the black glass).

Viewing from the side, the bike has a muscular and sculpted fuel tank that seems integrated into the semi-fairing panel, it has a bold ‘Panigale’ slapped across it with black graphics. This panel extends to even the lower section of the bike acting as the engine and underbelly protector. To accentuate the sports bike character, the exhaust pipe is hidden from the view and the tail section has been raised. There is a split seat setup with a sleek LED taillight installed at the rear.

To further resemble the superbike, this Pulsar sits on wide tyres with large discs at both ends. The wider tyres ensure great handling characteristics, especially around the corners where traction is everything. However, there are no other mechanical changes made to the engine which is wise. The Pulsar RS200 is a great everyday bike and it is a great idea to keep that intact and change only the aesthetics.
