I bought a used 2004 model Bajaj Pulsar 150 DTSi even though people advised that Bajaj bikes are not tough or well built like HH bikes. I have been using this for more than 9 months. It is working OK and I do not have any major problems. Are people biased against Bajaj. It is a fact youngsters get brand new Pulsars, ride it roughly in any way and if there are problems they complain.  I do not know why bike makers are putting bucket seats. For tall guys like me it is a problem sliding back and forth whereas on the older Honda CD 100 with a straight flat seat it was fun even on long runs. Wish I could modify this seat matter and get a straight flat seat allowing me to slide back and forth! The pick up is good  and it does zip even though 3 people ride it. Fuel efficiency is not bad at almost 50 km/ltr.
