BAJAJ Pulsar 200 DTS-i (2008-2014) Specs, Performance & Photos

In 2008, the Indian motorcycle manufacturer released the Bajaj Pulsar 200 DTS-i, a 200cc model with a new oil cooler, which helped control the engine oil temperatures at higher speeds and rpm.

In addition to the oil cooler, the bike's visual department differed from previous models, packing a redesigned front fairing, a two-piece dual seat instead of the previous single piece, and two passenger grab rails.

It was equipped with standard features, such as a half fairing with a small windscreen, a two-piece dual seat with side-mounted pillion grab handles, a single side-mounted shock absorber, a center stand, and six-spoke aluminum alloy wheels.

For suspension, the motorcycle packed a telescopic fork on the front and a dual-sided swingarm with a left-hand side-mounted shock absorber, providing optimum suspension performance and handling capabilities.

As for the braking power, the bike's wheels were fitted with a 260 mm brake disc on the front and a 230 mm brake disc on the rear, engaged by hydraulic calipers, offering optimum stopping power.

The 2008 Bajaj Pulsar 200 DTS-i had its heartbeat set by a 219cc four-stroke single-cylinder oil-cooled engine, fed by a carburetor, delivering an output power of 21 hp and 19 Nm (14 lb-ft) torque.

The power generated by the engine was transferred to the rear axle via a five-speed gearbox controlled by a wet multi-plate clutch and a final chain drive.
