PROS
Some of the convenient features I found in the bike are:
Kick and Electric start with auto choke: No starting problem in cold weather.
Digital Speedo Meter: A unique feature of Bajaj’s bikes in this segment.
Pass Switch: Giving easy dipper& flash to the vehicles while overtaking.
Engine Kill Switch: Easy turning off the engine for short intervals at the signals.
Battery charge status indicator: Tells when the battery comes to a low charged condition.
Trip meter: Can be used to check the mileage of the bike or distance between two places easily.
CONS
I’ve said a lot about the cool features of this bike but now is the time to tell about some difficulties I faced with my Pulsar 135LS:
Colour choice: I didn’t have much choice of colour while selecting a color for it as its available in just 2 colors. But I am happy with the midnight black which looks good.
Fuel tank capacity: Its fuel tank capacity is 8ltrs in which 2.5ltrs is reserve. So the fuel tank capacity is low as compared to other bikes. But I guess the good mileage it gives compensates for that.
Engine Vibrations: Its engine starts vibrating at the speed of about 50kmph. But I’ve heard its normal for an engine to vibrate when its stressed. So its not actually a bad thing about the bike.
Fuel meter: Its fuel meter sometimes shows a slightly wrong fuel information. The reserve sign sometimes appear even when the bike can go about 25km without using the reserve.
Gear shifting: I initially faced some problems with its downshifting& the gearbox sometimes seemed to be hard. But everything was resolved after the first service& the gearbox is really smooth now.
Pillion seat: Some people found its pillion seat to be a bit uncomfortable .
