The Pulsar RS 200 has been Bajaj Auto’s flagship bike for years and one of the most successful motorcycles in the sports bike segment.

On account of its heavier kerb weight, the RS 400 is expected to deliver a city mileage of 24 kmpl and highway mileage of 29 kmpl – averaging about 26 kmpl, with a top speed of 175 kmph.
For the 2018-19 launch, Pulsar RS 400 price was speculated to be priced at around Rs 1.7 lakh to Rs 2 lakh. However, with the delay and possible upgrades, the Bajaj Pulsar RS400 price could now be between Rs 2 to Rs 2.3 lakh. Please check the official Bajaj website for the latest prices.
The expected design specifications of the RS 400
The Pulsar RS 400 will build upon the styling of its predecessor. However, it will be positioned as a sports tourer and not a faired sports bike like RS 200. The frontside of the RS 400 will sport a raised handlebar, full front fairing with twin projector headlamps, additional LED DRLs and a windscreen.
The driving console will have a fully digital instrument cluster and fairing-mounted rearview mirrors. The large fuel tank will have a guard and an aircraft-type fuel filler cap. There will be split seats and split grab rails, stylish 17-inch alloy wheels and crystal LED taillights at the back.
For starters, the Bajaj has invested a lot in terms of crafting this bike. It carries a powerful and refined engine with smashing good looks. The Pulsar Rs 400’s top speed can take you up to 175 kmph with the help of its 6-speed gear box. Know that this bike is only heavy on performance, and not on mileage.
When ridden sensibly, this super bike can provide a mileage of 28 kilometres per litre. The RS 400 is Pulsar’s flagship model, which is why it looks different from all the previous Pulsar models.
In addition to excellent on-road performance, speed and safety, this bike won’t burn a hole in your pocket. The Pulsar RS 400’s price range lies between Rs. 2 to 2.3 lakhs. This is more value for money as compared to countless other bikes within its segment. You can verify the latest price of the RS 400 on Bajaj’s official website.
The RS 400 has borrowed the suspension setup from the Dominar 400 which features 43 mm USD forks and adjustable monoshock. The 320 mm disc for the front brakes and 230 mm disc for the rear brakes are supported by dual-channel ABS.
Also, keep in mind that the RS 400 comes loaded with many safety and comfort features. Some of these include:
Projector headlamps
LED DRLs (Daytime Running Lamps)
Monoshock rear suspension
Full front fairing
Split seats
Stylish alloy wheels
Split grab rails
Backlit switchgear
And, more.
