When a bike carries the Pulsar badge, expectations are sky-high. And when that name is paired with something as thrilling as Bajaj Pulsar RS400Z, hearts race even before the engine does. For every Indian youngster who ever dreamt of owning a superbike but had to settle for less, the Pulsar RS400Z might finally be the answer. It looks wild, rides hard, and yet doesn’t leave your wallet in tears.
Design of Pulsar RS400Z – Sharp, Loud, and Unapologetically Pulsar
One look at the Pulsar RS400Z, and you’ll know Bajaj isn’t playing safe anymore. The twin projector LED headlamps, aggressive front fairing, race-style rear seat cowl, and muscular tank scream performance. This isn’t a commuter with some graphics—it’s a full-blown faired machine that demands attention.
The dual-tone body panels, signature Pulsar graphics, and aerodynamic cuts give it a proper supersport presence. Ride it into your colony, and even bigger bikes will turn to check what just passed them.
Features of Pulsar RS400Z – High-Tech Touches for the Modern Rider
Bajaj has loaded the Pulsar RS400Z with enough features to keep tech-hungry riders happy. A fully digital TFT console, Bluetooth connectivity, turn-by-turn navigation, and call/SMS alerts ensure you stay connected even on the move. Dual-channel ABS, all-LED lighting, and ride-by-wire tech give it a modern edge.
Unlike older Pulsars that were all muscle but little finesse, the RS400Z brings real-time data, precision control, and a premium cockpit feel—something we’ve long awaited in this segment.
Engine of Pulsar RS400Z – Dominar DNA Tuned for Pulsar Madness
The Pulsar RS400Z is powered by a 373cc, single-cylinder, liquid-cooled engine derived from the Dominar 400, but tuned for a racier character. Expect around 40 PS of power and 35 Nm of torque, delivered through a 6-speed gearbox with assist & slipper clutch.
The engine revs freely, pulls hard, and sounds meatier than any Pulsar before it. Whether you’re taking off from traffic lights or pushing through highway straights, the RS400Z gives you the performance thrill that’s been missing in the Pulsar family for years.
Mileage of Pulsar RS400Z – Not a Saver, But Surprisingly Efficient
You don’t buy a 400cc faired bike for fuel economy—but Pulsar RS400Z still surprises with a mileage of 30–35 km/l in city and better on highway if ridden sensibly. That’s more than decent for a bike this powerful and puts it ahead of many global rivals in cost-efficiency.
It lets you enjoy aggressive riding without constantly checking the fuel gauge. For a middle-class enthusiast, that means you don’t need to compromise fun for savings.
Performance of Pulsar RS400Z – Weekend Beast, Daily Ride Ready
The Pulsar RS400Z isn’t just built for traffic light drag races. It handles corners with confidence, thanks to a perimeter frame and stiff suspension setup. The front USD forks and rear mono-shock keep things stable even on rough patches.
0 to 100 km/h? Under 7 seconds. Top speed? Close to 160+ km/h. And yet, it doesn’t feel nervous at lower speeds. Bajaj has managed to create a balance—track-ready performance in a daily-usable package.
Price of Pulsar RS400Z – Big Machine, Relatable Price Tag
The expected ex-showroom price of the Bajaj Pulsar RS400Z is around ₹2.45 lakh. That puts it comfortably below the KTM RC 390 and even the Yamaha R3, while offering a similarly thrilling experience.
In global markets, the price is expected to hover around USD $2,800, GBP £2,400, or AUD $4,500, making it an affordable sportbike globally.
EMI Plans for Pulsar RS400Z – Powerful Bike, Pocket-Friendly EMIs
Dreaming of the RS400Z but worried about the budget? Here’s how Bajaj is making it easy:
- Down Payment: ₹25,000 to ₹30,000
- EMI: Starting from ₹6,200/month for 36 months
- Interest Rate: Around 9.5% depending on credit profile
With such a setup, owning a proper 400cc Pulsar is no longer out of reach for the average Indian rider. Bajaj showrooms across the country are expected to offer instant approvals and festive bonuses.
