The 2026 Bajaj Pulsar NS125 arrival at the dealership has begun; the spied image of the same has already revealed three upgrades for this upcoming motorcycle, enhancing the riding experience and also giving a different look than the outgoing model.
The Bajaj Pulsar NS125, the sporty naked streetfighter motorcycle, is available for sale in the Indian market from April 2021. Soon, Bajaj Auto, the automotive manufacturing company, will launch it with feature upgrades. It is set to be known as the 2026-year model. The launch date for this motorcycle is still uncertain; the automaker is most likely to launch it around the 2026 festive season.
This upcoming motorcycle has been spotted at the dealership without any camouflage. The images of the same were shared by the Bajaj Expert. The photos have already revealed that prior to the launch, the arrival of this imminent bike at the dealership has begun. It is coming with three upgrades: a revised LCD instrument cluster, a sportier multi-tone exterior color, and a mode button.
The outgoing version had a negative LCD screen; replacing the same, the updated Bajaj Pulsar NS125 has received an updated instrument panel with a cleaner and brighter digital layout, revealed via the spy shots of the motorcycle. It is clearly visible in the spied images that the LCD features a central speedometer, gear position indicator, fuel gauge, and an upper tachometer ribbon.
The spotted model may be the standard variant, because reports suggest a TFT display that may be introduced for the top-end variant. In the spy shots, its exterior can be seen in a black-red color combination, enhancing visual styling. One of the spied images also reveals a tactile physical button is added to the left-side handlebar switch assembly for easy access to the instrument cluster.
Apart from these upgrades, the rest are most likely to remain the same. The 124.45cc, air-cooled, single-cylinder DTS-i internal combustion engine is set to be retained and delivers 12 PS of power and 11 Nm of torque. Even its gearbox of a five-speed manual has been retained. The top speed and 0 to 60 kmph acceleration timing are also expected to be similar to the outgoing model.
Still underpins the steel perimeter frame, whose front and rear suspension are conventional telescopic forks and Nitrox monoshocks, respectively. The 17-inch multi-spoke alloy wheels are confirmed; they are also visible in the recent spy shots: the front one is found with the 240 mm petal disc brake clamped by a twin-piston caliper, and the rear with a 130 mm drum brake that handles stabilization.
Other details that we get to know through the spied images are the stepped seat with the soft-touch upholstery, split grab rails, halogen side indicators, and LED headlights and taillamps; they are the same as the outgoing model. Familiar appearance further strengthens the report of this motorcycle remaining the same besides three changes.
Due to the feature upgrades, an increase in the ex-showroom price for the 2026 Bajaj Pulsar NS125 is also certain. The model already on sale in the Indian market costs between ₹92,182 and ₹108,146. Reports suggest for the updated version, the price will be increased around ₹5,000, so we are expecting that the refreshed version will cost between ₹0.97 lakh and ₹1.13 lakh.
With the revised LCD instrument cluster, new multi-tone exterior color option, and mode button on the handlebar, the 2026 Bajaj Pulsar NS125 will further strengthen its positioning in the 125cc segment. As the launch in the Indian market is slated around Diwali 2026, a sharp increase in its monthly sales during the festive season is anticipated.
