Bajaj Pulsar N250 vs Hero Xtreme 160R

Question 1

Q. Which bike is good, Xtreme 160R or Pulsar NS 160?

Answer

Both the bikes are good in their forte. The Xtreme 160R is the most exciting motorcycle to come out of the stables of Hero MotoCorp in the recent past. It has the styling, performance, and dynamics to take on the competition. However, its pricing will be crucial to make an impact on the segment. Whereas, while the Bajaj Pulsar NS160 BS6 might not have many tangible features to justify the price hike due to BS6 norms, it more than makes up for it with raw performance. In fact, it is the most powerful motorcycle in its segment, making it ideal for enthusiasts who prioritise performance over anything else.

While the first two variants are available in Pearl Silver White, Vibrant Blue and Sports Red the 100 Million Limited Edition is available in a unique red-white-and-black combo livery.

Question 3

Q. How is Bajaj Pulsar N250 and F250 in long rides?

Answer

I was on tour with my n250 to spiti and believe me this didn't even make me feel like tired or something on this long route

Answer

These Bajajs use an air-and-oil-cooled 2-valve, single-cylinder engine that uses 249cc of displacement for its wow quotient. Bajaj says they didn’t use triple-spark tech here as meeting BS6 norms reduces the lean air-fuel mixture combinations which the triple spark setup leveraged. There are no ride modes here either. But it is an all-new engine, sitting 10 degrees from vertical compared to 20 degrees on the P220F. It also has offset crank and bush bearings for the balancer shaft to improve efficiency and refinement. Impressively, the engine makes as much power as the NS200 - and its 21.5Nm of torque is the most we have seen on a Pulsar to date. On the road, the sound, the sensations and the performance are oh-so-220! The sound and feel of the engine have a touch of mechanical rawness. No, it isn’t rough! There’s just a bit of a pulse and roar that makes it feel very Pulsar. As promised the engine has a lot of grunts - which means you can leave it between 3000-4000 rpm for all your city duties. In 4th gear, it will pull from 25kmph easily. Yes, the Pulsar has only five gears but performance isn’t lacking, so if you are planning to do long distances even with a pillion you'll find it lets you relax on the highway as well. Along with the performance, it's the practicality of the Pulsar that has made it so appealing. Its 795m seat height lets 5’6” riders like me put both feet down flat, especially because it feels slim. Moreover, we would suggest you to take a test ride for a better understanding of performance and comfort.

Question 4

Q. Which bike is best, Hero Xtreme 160R or Apache RTR 160 4V?

Answer

Selecting the right bike would depend on several factors such as your budget preference on the segment, features required, engine options, brand preference, etc. The Xtreme 160R is the most exciting motorcycle to come out of the stables of Hero MotoCorp in the recent past. It has the styling, performance, and dynamics to take on the competition. Hero Xtreme 160R is powered by a 163 cc engine. This Xtreme 160R engine generates a power of 15.22 PS @ 8500 rpm and a torque of 14 Nm @ 6500 rpm. On the other hand, The TVS Apache RTR 160 4V has been the benchmark when it comes to 160cc motorcycles. With the BS6-compliant iteration, TVS has made sure it is still as sprightly, with the '21 update making it the most powerful bike in the 160cc sporty commuter class. TVS Apache RTR 160 4V is powered by a 159.7 cc engine. This Apache 160 4V engine generates a power of 17.63 PS @ 9250 rpm and a torque of 14.73 Nm @ 7250 rpm. Moreover, we would suggest you to take a test ride before making the final decision. Follow the link and select your desired city for dealership.

Question 6

Q. What is the difference between air cooled and oil cooled engine?

Answer

Not to worry, all are good until that engine don't get heated up

Answer

Difference is negligible

Answer

In the process of chemical energy into mechanical energy by burning fuel and air, the engine tends to get heated and thus requires cooling in order to perform smoothly. An air-cooled engine is designed with fins on the outside which increase the surface area of the motor, thus improving airflow around it. In essence, these fins create channels around the engine and use passing air as a natural coolant which helps dissipate heat generated from the cylinder. Now, in case of oil-cooling, the circulating oil is cooled by pumping it through a radiator-like cooler which uses air flowing through it to cool down the engine oil. The cooled oil is then sent back to the engine and the process repeats itself to maintain its operating temperature and viscosity. While a mid-to-high-power air-cooled engine does benefit from oil cooling, since the oil is not directly used to cool engine parts directly, it doesn’t really qualify as a cooling system per se - even if manufacturers like to say otherwise.
