TVS Apache vs Bajaj Pulsar – Drag Race
The YouTuber and his friend decide to perform this competition on an open highway. We would like to urge our readers to NOT try such stunts on your own. The results could be fatal if something goes wrong. Coming back to the race, in the first attempt, the Bajaj Pulsar takes the lead from the launch itself. However, it is just marginal and both bikes are travelling head-to-head for a while. But with time, the 250 cc engine of the Pulsar triumphs over the 200-cc engine of the Apache and the former races away to victory. For the results to be consistent and accurate, the second attempt sees the rides switching. However, what doesn’t change is the result. After the initial few seconds, the Pulsar is simply too powerful for Apache to catch up. But considering the specifications of the two bikes, it was not a surprise and the performance of the Apache is still impressive.
