Before I even start, I would like to thank Crazy driver, since it is only after having a look at his article today morning that I decided to also give in a long term ownership report of the first vehicle I purchased, Pulsar 150 DTSi.
BTW, it would also be fair enough for the people who are looking to buy 150 instead of 180. .Well I see more of 150s in Delhi/NCR than 180s
The Idea:
It was November 2003 and I used to travel about 40 kms everyday for 6 days a week, and my dad's scooter ( Bajaj Legend) though an excellent machine ( always gave me around 50-55 kmpl) was developing well known nags like clutch problem. In addition, my dad wanted it every now and then for his work as well. That was the time I decided to go independent and decided to purchase a bike. I wanted a CBZ, but the average was miserable, and FE was a concern for me, but I wanted performance as well. the Pulsar 150 fitted exactly.
