Bajaj Pulsar 220 Manual
A 2005 model Bajaj Pulsar Manufacturer Production 1987–present 135/150/180/200/220 cc, 2-4, / The Bajaj Pulsar is a brand owned by in India. The two wheeler was developed by the product engineering division of Bajaj Auto in association with R&D, and later with motorcycle designer. Currently there are six variants available, with engine capacities of 135 cc, 150 cc, 180 cc, 200 cc, 220 cc and 400 cc (Renamed Dominar before release). Earlier it was also offered with a 200 cc DTS-i oil cooled engine, which now has been discontinued. Instead a new version Pulsar 200NS was launched in 2012. However Pulsar 200NS production was discontinued in August 2015 (reintroduced in early 2017 with BS IV Emission compliance and renamed the NS200). With average monthly sales of around 86,000 units in 2011, Pulsar claimed a 2011 market share of 47% in its segment.
By April 2012, more than five million units of Pulsar were sold. Before the introduction of the Pulsar, the Indian motorcycle market trend was towards fuel efficient, small capacity motorcycles (that formed the 80–125 cc class). Bigger motorcycles with higher capacity virtually did not exist (except for with 350cc and 500cc variants). The launch and success of in 1999 showed that there was demand for performance bikes. Bajaj took the cue from there on and launched the Pulsar twins (150cc and 180cc) in India on 24 November 2001. Since the introduction and success of Bajaj Pulsar, Indian youth began expecting high power and other features from affordable motorcycles.
The project faced internal resistance, reservations by and doubts on its effects on Bajaj's relation with. The project took approximately 36 months for completion and cost Bajaj ₹ 1 billion. 2003 Model bajaj pulsar 150 cc The second generation Pulsars featured Bajaj Auto's newly developed DTSi technology, which increased the power rating of both versions by 1 hp (0.75 kW) each and also increased fuel economy. This model also introduced a new headlamp assembly, 1,320 mm wheelbase, and standard twin-tone horn and trip meter.
2005 In 2005, Bajaj launched Pulsar 150. The bike was offered with 17-inch (430 mm) alloy wheels as standard option, and the stance was also lowered by about 12 mm. It was the first time any bike maker in India had offered 17-inch (430 mm) profile wheels at the rear. The fuel tank now had a capacity of only 18 litres.
The power output was now further increased to 13.5 hp (10.1 kW) @ 8500 rpm for the 150 while it increased to 16.5 hp (12.3 kW) @ 8500 rpm for the 180. The rear shock absorbers were now gas-filled Nitrox absorbers.
The LCD screen introduced with the UG-3 version of the Pulsar 2006 Bajaj introduced another version of Pulsar (UG III). New features included: pilot lamps separated from the main headlamp, turn indicators with clear lenses and amber bulb, self-cancelling turn indicator switch, flush LCD screen with digital read-out of key vehicle data, non-contact speed sensor, non-contact backlit switches, twin-stripe LED tail-light assembly and side panels altered for a sharp, tapering-towards-the-rear look. The engine had increased torque availability, reduced vibration and improved gear shift feel. The new headlamp design introduced for the entire Pulsar series in 2006 2007 In July 2007, Bajaj began selling the Bajaj Pulsar 220 DTS-Fi and Pulsar 180 DTS-i, the former featuring and oil cooled engines, a digital dash, and modern styling.
This bike has some features which are totally new to the Indian market, like the fuel injection itself, rear disc brake and (the first two only available in the 220 model). 2008 The new Pulsar has many firsts to its credit. It comes equipped with an oil cooler, which helps control engine oil temperatures at sustained high speeds and rpms, thus ensuring more stable engine oil viscosity. The new digital console is an advanced version of the latest Pulsar family.
Apart from the Digital Odometer, Digital Speedo Meter, Digital Fuel Gauge, Self Cancelling Indicators and two Digital Trip Meters, the console on the 180 cc Pulsar DTS-I has indicators for the air filter condition, engine temperature, battery voltage and oil level. 2009 Bajaj released the UG IV (fourth upgrade) versions of the Pulsar 150 and Pulsar 180 in April 2009. The upgrades for the Pulsar 150 included an all-black theme, tank scoops similar to those on the Pulsar 200, a 3D Pulsar logo, and a changed electrical system (full DC). Power also increased from 13.5 HP to 14.09 HP (at 8,500 rpm).
Electrical enhancements like auto head light switch-off after few seconds of turning the engine off to protect the battery, self-cancelling turn signals, icon illumination (horn icon, indicator icon, engine cut off icon, etc.), side stand warning light, duel digital trip meter, low fuel warning light (which also flashes when the engine is revved too hard), and low battery indicator are common features among all the variants and Auto Choke System in 220 Variant. The Pulsar 180 received upgrades like wider tyres, split seat, tank scoops, clip-on handlebars, 3D Pulsar logo, swing arm suspension borrowed from Pulsar 200, and thicker forks. The power was increased to 17 PS. Bajaj launched a carbureted version of Pulsar 220 on June 2009, tagging it as 'the fastest bike in India'.
It also discontinued the production of Pulsar 200 on July 2009. Bajaj also introduced a new Light Sports version of Pulsar named as Pulsar 135LS. It is the first bike in India to contain 4-valve DTS-i technology. It consists 4 smaller valves rather than 2 standard bigger valves, styling also is changed and looks become more aggressive. The bike is ARAI certified for 68.5 km/l and weights only 122 kg. 2010 Bajaj released the UG 4.5 versions of the Pulsar 150.
The upgrades for the Pulsar 150 included an clip-on handlebars like those in Pulsar 135LS. Power also increased from 14.09 HP to 15.06 HP (at 9,000 rpm).
The model badge was redesigned and did not feature 'DTS-i' as in the previous models. A naked version of Pulsar 220 is also launched, named as Pulsar 220S (Street Fighter) which retains everything from Pulsar 220 except the front fairing. Front fairing is similar to Pulsar 180/150. The former Pulsar 220 was renamed as Pulsar 220F.

It was launched in April 2012. Claimed fuel economy is 58 kilometres per litre (140 mpg ‑US) when ridden under 60 kilometres per hour (37 mph). Design of the 200NS was by Bajaj lead designer, who left Bajaj to become head of design in mid-2012. 2014 At the February 2014, Bajaj announced two new 375 cc Pulsar variants: the CS400, an unfaired 'street-naked' compared stylistically to the, and the SS400, with a full fairing. Models shown were described by press as 'near-production prototypes.'
Later in the following year the a bike looking similar to the SS400 came into production with a 200cc fuel injected engine derived from the NS200, completely new aggressive look with twin projector headlamps and was named as RS200. It also is the first Pulsar to get Single Channel ABS as an option. This is the most powerful pulsar yet. 2016 The CS400 concept from the 2014 Auto Expo, went through a series or rebranding before release (Pulsar CS400, Pulsar VS400, Bajaj Kratos 400). Finally, It was separated from the Pulsar range and spawned as the Bajaj Dominar 400. 2017 The 200NS, which was temporarily discontinued in favor of the AS200, was reintroduced as the NS200 with an updated color scheme.
Later in the year, NS200 received a Single Channel ABS Variant. The entire Pulsar lineup (135LS, 150, 180, 220F, NS200, RS200) receives compliant engines and AHO (Always Headlamp On) as well as a new Laser Edge color scheme. The digital display on received newer graphics and a Blue back light instead of the previously Orange back light. The Pulsar 150 received mechanical changes to conform to BS4 norms, leading to a loss of 1 Ps of power.
The Pulsar 180 received a 230mm rear disc brake instead of a drum brake. A new model named the Pulsar NS160 was released soon after.
It shared most of its styling and design with the NS200, but used a smaller 160cc Oil Cooled DTS-i engine producing 15.5 Ps of power at 8500 rpm and 14.6 Nm of peak torque at 6500 rpm. It also features a skinnier rear tire and doesn't offer a rear disc brake. The NS200 and RS200 were rebadged and sold in the Malaysian market as the Pulsar NS200 and RS200. Technology DTSi DTSi stands for Digital Twin, a Bajaj Auto trademark.
Bajaj Auto holds an Indian patent for the DTSi technology. The Alfa Romeo Twin-Spark engines, the which was sold in India from 1995 to 1997 also had a twin-spark plug technology, and the Rotax motorcycle engines, more recently Honda's iDSI Vehicle engines use a similar arrangement of two spark-plugs. However very few small capacity engines did eventually implement such a scheme in their production prototypes. Patent infringement In September 2007, Bajaj Auto filed a claim accusing that the development of was in violation of their patent for DTS-I. Decided to sue Bajaj Auto for libel.
On February 2008, the in Chennai restrained TVS from launching it with the twin spark plug technology. TVS appealed against this decision, claiming that crucial evidence was not taken into account and in March 2008, launched the Flame with a modified engine containing one spark plug. The DTSi idea is a simple one to understand – it involved usage of two spark plugs (instead of one) per engine cylinder. On 16 September 2009, the permitted to manufacture and sell the 125 cc with Twin Spark Technology till the pendency of the suit before the Madras High Court, but it shall maintain accurate records of its sales all over the country. ExhausTEC ExhausTEC stands for Exhaust Torque Expansion Chamber, a technology patented by Bajaj.

The technology involves use of a small chamber connected to the exhaust pipe of the engine to modify the back-pressure and the swirl characteristics, with an aim to improve the low-end performance of the bikes. The ExhausTEC technology is claimed to be highly effective in improving the low and mid-range torque.
