Fast backward to 2012, when I was into the market in search of a best bike(in premium commuter segment) I was totally fixed onto Pulsar 180 because it ticked all the boxes for me like hassle free and cheap maintenance, good FE, usable Power for city rides and hi-way rides, comfortable yet stylish seating position coupled with rear-set foot pegs, 2 piece handle bars etc. As usual when I went to Bajaj Showroom they insisted me to take Pulsar 150 and tried to convince me that P150 is superior to P180 because it has a kick starter:p
But I was determined to take P180, in rare case P220 or P135 LS(Pulsar 135LS due to its funky looking style, refined engine and more FE). But couldn't buy a P180 because I was not given finance option. I came out of showroom disappointed but an idea of buying a used yet good P220 struck me. So headed straight to a used bike dealer, there I saw a shining new P220 with 4k odd kms on it with a third free service left. I was told that the owner wanted to leave to US of A and hence sold it. So I paid the money took the bike. From that day till today I'm very much happy with my choice.
We have taken up the task to make your decision wiser while opting out for the better Pulsar. Yes, you guessed it right the fight is between 2 family members, the younger, powerful, yet agile Pulsar 200AS and the bike of its own era the Pulsar 220F dtsi.
