Specifications
As for the engine, the new Bajaj CT100 KS comes powered by the same four-stroke, single-cylinder 102 cc engine as the other variants in the Bajaj CT100 range. This motor belts out a maximum power of 8 bhp at 7,500 rpm along with a peak torque of 8.34 Nm at 5,500 rpm.
Bajaj Pulsar 125 Drum Variant
The new CT100 isn’t the only new variant which Bajaj has introduced in recent times. The two-wheeler giant recently launched a new variant for its popular bike- Pulsar 125. Just like all other trims, the new Pulsar 125 Split Seat drum variant is also priced at an odd figure of Rs 73,274 (ex-showroom). It comes out as a cheaper option against the already available disc brake version which is priced at Rs 80,218 (ex-showroom). Except for the presence of drum brakes on both the tyres, all other mechanical details remain unchanged in both the bikes. The bike uses the same 124.4 cc, single-cylinder, air-cooled engine that’s known to produce 11bhp of power and 10.8 Nm of peak torque.

The bike comes mated to a five-speed gearbox. On the suspension front, the Pulsar 125 Drum Variant comes equipped with the conventional telescopic front fork and twin gas shock absorbers at the rear. This new variant comes at a much cheaper price, by sacrificing on the disc brakes. This variant will help Bajaj Auto, to further boost the sales during the upcoming festive season and make the most out of the current increase in demand for affordable entry-level 125cc bikes, due to the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic and the concept of social distancing.
