Looking at the other hardware specs, the upcoming Pulsar 400 could share the same chassis as the Pulsar NS200.

And this competitive pricing will definitely going to play a major role in developing the much-needed hype. But if not Rs 2 lakhs, the most realistic price range would be around Rs 2.10 lakhs, but probably not more than that. This seems actually most appropriate, given that the Dominar 400 price in India starts at Rs 2.31 lakhs.

Thoughts on this Huge Launch

With the upcoming Bajaj Pulsar 400 launch, the entire Pulsar bikes by Bajaj will come to its full potential. But the moment Bajaj started planning to launch this 400cc bike, it actually had the option to use the Pulsar name. However, the Pulsar brand was naturally associated with commuter/lower-capacity bikes. This is why the decision was made to create an entirely different brand - Dominar. Now, the brand has come out with Pulsar 400, and we’ll have to see if it is capable of sharing a larger share in the sub-500cc segment.
