2025 Bajaj Pulsar N160 Arrives in Nepal with USD Fork and Digital Console

The 2025 Bajaj Pulsar N160 is now available in Nepal.

HH Bajaj, the authorized distributor of Bajaj motorcycles in Nepal, has introduced the new Pulsar N160 variant for the Nepali market.

The Bajaj Pulsar N160 has received a much-awaited upgrade, closely following in the footsteps of the recently refreshed Pulsar N250. The N160 now stands even stronger in the competitive 160cc segment by introducing similar quality-of-life improvements.

The core design and engine configuration remain unchanged—delivering the same performance as before—but it now sports sharper graphics and new color options that lend it a more aggressive stance.

Bajaj Auto has upgraded the three key points in the N160—Suspension, ABS Modes, and Digital Meter. Among the three, the 37mm Upside-Down Fork upgrade is the most significant—replacing the traditional telescopic fork, a feature that not only elevates its premium appeal but also enhances front-end stability and overall ride agility.

The fully digital instrument cluster is another major improvement, supporting Turn-by-Turn Navigation and ABS Ride Modes—features previously absent in its last iteration.

Naturally, these updates have led to a slight price hike, but considering the improved features and ride dynamics, the value proposition of the N160 has only become stronger.

What is the Price of the Bajaj Pulsar N160 in Nepal?

Bajaj Pulsar N160 price in Nepal starts at Rs. 4.02 Lakhs to Rs. 4.15 Lakhs. It is available across the Telescopic and USD variants for the Nepali market.

Both variants of the Bajaj Pulsar N160 present a strong value proposition. The standard N160 continues to deliver with its bold design, commendable performance, and segment-leading Dual-Channel ABS—making it one of the most well-rounded options in its class.

On the other hand, the top-end USD variant takes things a step further, adding a premium touch with enhanced hardware and modern features.

According to Bajaj Nepal, both variants of the Pulsar N160 will continue to be available, offering riders the freedom to choose based on their preferences and budget. That said, the top-end variant stands out as the better value proposition in this already value-centric lineup, delivering more features and premium upgrades for a relatively modest price bump.

With that said, let’s take a closer look at the all-new Bajaj Pulsar N160 in Nepal and its key specifications in 2025.

Bajaj Pulsar N160 Overview

Design

The 2025 Bajaj Pulsar N160 commands a strong on-road presence with its muscular design, inspired by the “Sculptural Purity” principle that first debuted with the larger Pulsar N250.

At the front, it features a bold Bi-Projector LED headlamp flanked by naked wolf LED DRLs, giving it an aggressive and aerodynamic stance. The updated LED indicators complete the all-LED lighting setup—a nice addition in the 160cc segment—amplifying both visibility and modern design appeal.

Adding to its streetfighter persona, the sharp dual-tone front mudguard showcases a dynamic color transition—from a darker tone at the front to a lighter finish towards the rear—highlighting the sculpted bodywork. The sculpted fuel tank with prominent shrouds continues the familiar Pulsar styling, now enhanced with bold N160 stickering.

The new Pulsar N160 fuses muscular aggression with refined detailing, making it one of the most visually compelling offerings in the 160cc streetfighter segment.

split-seat setup further elevates its sporty character. With a stepped pillion seat and premium upholstery, the seats offer comfort for rider and passenger even in longer rides.

The Infinity Analog-Digital meter has been replaced by a fully digital cluster in both Standard and USD versions. However, the USD version can do more with additional support for Turn-by-Turn Navigation and Switchable ABS modes.

Meanwhile, the underbelly exhaust is compactly tucked beneath the engine for mass centralization, and the large engine cowl keeps the side profile sharp and clean. The blacked-out engine casing, bold graphics, and dual-tone paintwork reinforce the bike’s athletic identity.

At the rear, the signature infinity LED tail lamp is unchanged, delivering a unique light signature that adds to the Pulsar’s aggressive aesthetic. Split grab rails, a minimalist rear mudguard, and flush-mounted turn indicators maintain a sleek, uncluttered tail section. The upward-tapered tail cowl with sharp body lines ensures the bike looks lean and agile from every angle.

With these styling updates and two new color additions, the 2025 Pulsar N160 now comes in three striking color options: Polar Sky Blue, Pearl Metallic White, and Brooklyn Black.

Performance

Bajaj Pulsar N160 is powered by a 164.82cc, Single-Cylinder, 4-stroke, Air-cooled, SOHC FI engine. It can generate a max power of 16PS at 8750 rpm and a max torque of 14.65Nm at 6750 rpm.

Moreover, it is mated to a 5-speed gearbox with a 14-liter fuel tank capacity.

The powertrain figures remain unchanged, as the 2025 Pulsar N160 continues to deliver the familiar Pulsar grunt, powered by a trademark wide torque band that ensures 85% of peak power is accessible across a broader rev range. This results in a more responsive and flexible engine character, especially in urban and highway conditions.

One of the standout traits of the N160 is its taller gear ratios, setting it apart from the competition. These longer gears help maintain engine refinement across varying speeds, making high-gear overtakes smoother and more effortless.

A notable new feature is the addition of three ABS modes—Road, Rain, and Off-Road—accessible via a newly added Mode Button on the console. These modes allow the rider to customize ABS sensitivity based on riding conditions, offering optimized braking confidence on different terrains.

That said, the N160 still misses out on Traction Control, a feature now reserved for the bigger Pulsar N250.

Additional Features

Bajaj has equipped the top-end Pulsar N160 with Champagne-colored 37mm Upside-Down (USD) forks, whereas the standard variant continues with the 37mm Telescopic Forks. Both versions share a 5-Step Adjustable Mono-Shock at the rear.

The ground clearance stands at 165mm, while the wheelbase measures 1358mm..

Interestingly, the kerb weight differs slightly between the two variants—152 kg for the USD version and 154 kg for the standard version, making the premium variant slightly lighter despite the added hardware.

However, unlike the Pulsar N250, the N160 does not feature a wider 140-section rear tyre, instead continuing with the 130-section unit.

Both variants are equipped with Dual-Disc Brakes and Dual-Channel ABS as standard, ensuring solid braking performance and safety.

The following table is the list of Bajaj Pulsar N160 prices in Nepal for May 2025.

Bajaj Pulsar N160 rivals TVS Apache RTR 160 4V.

The N160 is priced slightly higher than the Apache RTR 160 4V.

The Apache focuses on performance with features like Ride Modes, a Superior Power-to-Weight ratio, and a 4-Valve Engine. In comparison, the N160 lacks these performance-focused elements, but it is a bit closer thanks to the new upgrades. Nevertheless, Bajaj continues to offer a more balanced ride with the N160 while catering to performance enthusiasts through the NS160 in its lineup.

The N160 caters to both new riders and those looking to upgrade from 125cc or 150cc models. It also stands out with its segment-first Dual-Channel ABS, which gives it an edge over the competition.

However, if we only compare performance figures, the Apache RTR 160 4V currently leads the segment. That said, the N160 has another key advantage: Bajaj’s strong after-sales service and extensive spare parts network, making it a more reliable choice for many buyers.
