Engineered by Bajaj for the naked motorcycle segment, the 2023 Bajaj Pulsar N250 relies on a 249.7 cc (15.2 cu in) oil & air-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke powerplant. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 24.1 HP (17.6 kW) at 8,750 rpm while maximum torque reaches 21.5 Nm (15.9 lb-ft) at 6,500 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 5-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 96.5 HP per liter and a 2,250 rpm working window between peak torque (6,500 rpm) and peak power (8,750 rpm), the engine character is reflecting a performance-oriented street tune that balances strong mid-range pull with an energetic top-end rush.
On the scales, the Pulsar N250 measures 162 kg (357 lbs) wet (curb), translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.15 HP/kg (6.72 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 795 mm (31.3 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,351 mm (53.2 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 14-liter (3.7 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
