Bajaj Pulsar Rs 200
De Bajaj Pulsar RS 200 werd in 2015 geïntroduceerd als de eerste volledig uitgeruste motorfiets in de Pulsar-serie, waarmee Bajaj zijn intrede deed in het sportkuipsegment in India. Het was opmerkelijk vanwege de vloeistofgekoelde motor met drievoudige vonktechnologie en brandstofinspuiting, wat een belangrijke technologische sprong betekende voor het merk. De RS 200 werd een referentie in het 200cc-sportsegment in India en concurreerde rechtstreeks met de KTM RC 200 voor een meer toegankelijke prijs.

Wat kopers moeten weten
Liquid-Cooled Performance Edge
The RS200 features a 199.5cc liquid-cooled, fuel-injected engine producing ~24.5 PS, making it one of the most powerful bikes in its segment. This cooling system significantly extends engine longevity compared to air-cooled rivals.
Watch the Fairing Vibrations
A known owner complaint is fairing rattles and plastic panel vibrations at high speeds, which can worsen over time if not addressed early. Inspect all panel mounts and clips carefully before buying a used unit.
Decent Resale Retention
The RS200 holds resale value reasonably well in the 150–200cc sports segment due to its strong brand recognition and limited direct competition. Well-maintained examples typically retain 55–65% of their value after 3 years.

Beoordeling van gebruikte kopers
"Best value full-fairing 200 if you maintain it properly."
$2,500-$4,000 usedThe RS200 is genuinely impressive for the money — a proper full-fairing 200cc that actually looks the part. Bajaj nailed the styling, and that fuel-injected single pulls cleanly from low revs without fuss. On used examples, budget 2018-onwards if you can; earlier bikes had some throttle body gremlins that dealers quietly fixed under warranty. Check the rear suspension linkage bearings — they wear faster than they should and replacement isn't cheap. Also inspect the fairing tabs obsessively; previous owners love dropping these at slow speed and those plastic clips are fragile. Daily riding is surprisingly comfortable for a sports-styled machine. The seating position is aggressive but not punishing, and highway cruising at 90-100 kph feels composed. The brakes are adequate rather than inspiring — ABS-equipped variants are worth the premium on the used market, full stop. For the price bracket, nothing touches it on spec sheet value. Just don't expect Japanese reliability and keep up with the 5,000 km service intervals religiously.
