Bajaj is back again. And this time, they’ve launched something exciting in the 125cc segment. The all-new Pulsar N125 2025. A stylish, sporty, and performance-packed bike that’s made for the middle-class youth. If you love bikes like MT-15 but your budget says no, then this Pulsar might be the perfect pick for you.
Let’s break down everything about this new Pulsar. From design to engine, features to mileage, here’s what makes it a dhamakedaar launch.
Fresh, Aggressive Design That Grabs Attention
The first thing you’ll notice about the new Pulsar N125 is its design. It looks bold. It looks sharp. It carries the streetfighter look that riders love.
The fuel tank is muscular. It has aggressive tank extensions on both sides. They are not just for style. They help with better grip when you ride hard.
The headlamp is inspired by the bigger Pulsar N160. It’s a robotic-looking LED projector unit with LED DRLs. Very bright and futuristic. The turn indicators are sleek and well-placed.
The rear section is sharp and upswept. It comes with a split-seat setup and a stubby exhaust. The tail-lamp design is unique. It still carries that twin-strip Pulsar signature look.
You get a sporty engine cowl. Alloy wheels with machine-cut finish. And a short, aggressive-looking rear tyre hugger. The overall look says one thing very clearly. This bike is not boring.
Modern Console With Useful Features
Bajaj has kept the tech game strong in the N125. The bike comes with a semi-digital instrument cluster. You get an analog tachometer on the left. And a digital display on the right.
The digital screen shows speed, fuel level, gear position, trip meter, odometer, and real-time mileage. That’s more than what most 125cc bikes offer.
There’s also a gear shift indicator, side stand alert, and low battery warning. The console is easy to read. Even in bright sunlight, the screen is clear.
Switchgear quality is solid. You get a pass switch, engine kill switch, and a backlit switch setup that feels premium.
125cc Engine With a Punch
Don’t think it’s just another commuter. The Pulsar N125 comes with a new-age 124.4cc air-cooled, single-cylinder engine. It produces around 11.8 bhp and 11 Nm torque.
These numbers might look simple. But on the road, the bike feels peppy. The throttle response is sharp. It accelerates fast, especially in the lower gears.
You get a 5-speed gearbox with smooth gear shifts. The clutch is light. You can easily ride it in heavy traffic. But when you open throttle on highways, it still feels lively.
It’s not as powerful as MT-15. But it’s more than enough for daily city rides and occasional highway trips. And the best part? You don’t have to spend a fortune to get this kind of fun.
Refined Performance and Less Vibration
Bajaj has worked on engine refinement in this bike. The Pulsar N125 is smoother than older Pulsars in this segment.
There’s less engine noise. Less vibration on the handlebar and foot pegs. Even at higher speeds, the bike feels stable.
This makes it perfect for people who ride daily and want a peaceful experience. It feels mature but still sporty.
Impressive Mileage for Daily Use
With rising fuel prices, mileage matters a lot. And this is where Bajaj scores well.
The Pulsar N125 gives you around 55 to 60 km/l in real-world riding. If you ride with a light hand, you might even touch 65 km/l on highways.
It has a fuel tank capacity of 14 litres. That means you can go over 700 km on a full tank. This makes it a great option for students, delivery riders, and office goers.
You get power, looks, and fuel savings in one bike.
Riding Comfort and Ergonomics
The Pulsar N125 is made for comfort. You get a split seat setup, but both rider and pillion seats are wide and cushioned.
The riding posture is slightly sporty but not aggressive. You sit upright, with a slight lean towards the handlebar. It gives you good control while still being comfortable.
The foot pegs are rear-set, adding to the sporty feel. The handlebar is wide enough for easy manoeuvring in traffic.
Seat height is around 795 mm. So most Indian riders will feel confident. Even shorter riders can manage it well.
Strong Suspension and Road Handling
Bajaj has used telescopic forks at the front and nitrox monoshock at the rear. This setup absorbs bumps nicely.
Whether you’re riding over potholes or rough roads, the bike stays stable. The rear suspension also gives a planted feel in corners.
Handling is light and easy. You can zip through traffic, take U-turns, and weave between cars without stress. This makes it great for city use.
Braking and Safety Features
The Pulsar N125 comes with disc brakes at the front and drum brakes at the rear. You also get CBS (Combi-Braking System) as standard.
The front brake offers strong bite. Rear brake is decent. Together, they offer confident stopping power. You feel safe even during sudden braking.
Tyres are tubeless. And they offer enough grip on dry and wet roads. The bike runs on 17-inch alloy wheels, which help in keeping it nimble.
Variants and Colours
Bajaj offers the N125 in two variants. Front disc + CBS and drum brake base variant. The disc variant is more stylish and sporty. But even the base variant offers a solid experience.
You get color options like Racing Red, Ebony Black, Pewter Grey, and Blue. All options come with fresh graphics and Pulsar branding.
On-Road Price That Won’t Break the Bank
The best thing about the Pulsar N125 is its pricing. Bajaj has launched it smartly to keep it affordable.
The ex-showroom price starts at around ₹92,000. On-road price may go up to ₹1.05 lakh depending on city.
That’s way cheaper than MT-15, which crosses ₹1.7 lakh. You get sporty design, decent performance, and modern features at a budget price.
Who Should Buy the Pulsar N125 2025
This bike is made for youngsters. Students who want a stylish and powerful bike on a budget. First-time bike buyers. College goers. Even working professionals who want a mix of fun and mileage.
It’s also a great bike for small families looking for a stylish second vehicle. Or for people who want to ride daily without spending too much on fuel.
If you want MT-15 feel in half the price, this Pulsar gives you just that.
