The Pulsar AS150 and AS200 look ALMOST identical and can be differentiated only by those who have a real eye for detail.

The semi fairing and added windshield improves aerodynamics and adds to the muscular appearance.

The projector setup comes standard on the AS150 and AS200. Sadly though, we rode as the sun provided more than required illumination on the hot summer afternoon and we could not test the headlight performance. We are quite sure, though, that the AS duo would ‘outshine’ its rivals, quite literally.

The riding position is spot on while the saddle has been sufficiently padded for comfortable, long distance runs.

Except for a few elements, both the motorcycles are near similar to the Pulsar 200NS Naked Roadster. Both motorcycles receive 12-litre tank but the AS150 should offer better distance range than AS200.

The Pulsar AS200 receives disc brakes on both the wheels offering decent feedback.

The Pulsar AS150 receives a disc brake at the front but has to settle for a drum brake at the rear. The braking performance is satisfactory for the characteristics of the motorcycle.

Instrument cluster and switchgear on the AS150 and AS200 are identical to the Pulsar 200NS. The build quality is at par but nothing stellar.

The Pulsar AS200 receives a liquid cooled engine which has been borrowed from the Pulsar 200NS.

The Pulsar AS150 receives an all new engine that feels as refined as a Japanese motorcycle.

  1. The 200NS seats were rock hard, not adequate for touring. the AS seats are no different than the NS. The NS engine had vibes which percolate through the handlebars, foot-pegs and seat; similiar vibes exist on the AS too. NS suspension was stiff, pretty choppy ride on bad roads, AS isn’t different in this dept though it should have been. Somehow not convinced of the AS touring intentions,

  2. Its a total let down ,instead on bringing some thing new they brought a fusion between 200NS & discover 150F and named it 150AS/200AS .Is it old wine in new bottle. If you are looking for exclusivity then look for other brand because Bajaj is doing same thing which it did with the discover series i.e (discover 100 to 150 cc)

  3. Dear Amit,

    Sadly we did not have the motorcycles for long enough and hence it was difficult to calculate the fuel efficiency. We will be getting the motorcycles for a longer time frame in days to come and we will make sure to update our readers with the fuel economy figures.
