Technical
The 2026 Bajaj Pulsar NS125 model has received major technical and cosmetic changes, making it a highly premium option in the 125cc segment. These updates have been strategically made to appeal to more youth and boost sales.
Stunning Design and Attractive Colors
The Pulsar NS125 has received a new Pearl Metallic White color option with light pink highlights. This new colorway enhances the NS125’s sharp streetfighter design. To further enhance the bike’s sporty stance, it now features wider tires. The old 80-section front and 100-section rear tires have been replaced by 90-section front and 120-section rear tires, providing better grip and a rugged look.
Riding Modes
The most significant technical upgrade on the 2026 NS125 is its ABS modes. It now comes with Rain, Road, and Off-Road modes, powered by a single-channel ABS. Rain Mode provides better control on wet surfaces, while Off-Road Mode enhances the riding experience, especially on difficult terrain. These modes provide riders with greater safety and better control in every riding situation.
Key Upgrades
The next major upgrade on the 2026 Pulsar NS125 is its fully digital instrument console. This feature was previously only available on the larger Pulsar NS models. The console now includes turn-by-turn navigation, ensuring riders don’t worry about getting lost. It also includes connected features like call and SMS notifications. Standard metrics like gear position and distance-to-empty are also displayed on this console.
Engine and Powertrain
Mechanically, the 2026 Pulsar NS125’s powertrain remains the same as the previous variant, maintaining its reliable performance. The motorcycle is powered by a 124.45cc single-cylinder, air-cooled engine. This engine produces 12 PS of peak power at 8,500 rpm and 11 Nm of peak torque at 7,000 rpm. This engine is mated to a 5-speed transmission. All these powerful upgrades make the Bajaj Pulsar NS125 a unique and powerful contender in the 125cc segment.
