The 2024 model gets the same updates as the updated Pulsar N250 except for the inverted fork
Bajaj Auto has been updating its 2024 lineup since the beginning of the year. As far as the 250cc Pulsar bike range is considered, the Bajaj Pulsar N250 got several updates more than a month ago. And now, the manufacturer has launched the updated Bajaj Pulsar F250 at Rs 1,50,829 (ex-showroom Delhi). The bike has started reaching dealerships as well. The updated Pulsar F250 is Rs 851 more expensive than the previous generation model, which, incidentally, is the same premium for the new-gen N250 as well. More importantly, while most of the updates from the N250 have been carried over to the F250, it misses out on the inverted fork though and still gets a telescopic fork.
Changes on the Pulsar F250 include most of the changes seen on the updated Pulsar N250. It gets the same LCD instrument console with Bluetooth connectivity for calls and SMS alerts and turn-by-turn navigation. It also gets a new button on the left switchgear to navigate through the console’s menu. It gets new petal disc brakes at the front and the rear. However, the sizes of both the front and rear disc brakes have remained the same at 300mm and 230mm respectively.
Similar to the Pulsar N250, the updated Pulsar F250 gets a 110-section front and 140-section rear tyre setup, replacing the 100-section front and 130-section rear setup of the previous model. The 17-inch wheel setup at both ends and its design have remained the same. The bike gets a new black colour option with red graphics as well. Other than that, the overall styling of the bike has remained unchanged. It is powered by the same 249cc, single-cylinder, air/oil-cooled engine that produces 24.5PS and 21.5Nm.
It’s a bit odd that Bajaj discontinued the bike for some time, only to re-introduce it with marginal updates as opposed to a properly upgraded one. The addition of an inverted fork would’ve improved the bike’s handling, not to mention raise the premium-quotient. This feels like a case of taking two steps forward and one step backwards in terms of the evolution of the F250.
