Rs 2,003
Depending on the model, the price hikes seem to vary between Rs 1,000 and a little over Rs 2,000. The only upside, if you could call it that, is that Bajaj reduced the price of the Pulsar 125 Neon by Rs 506. So, you now pay Rs 71,616 instead of the previous Rs 72,122.
The RS 200 retains its current price tag of Rs 1,52,179. However, we anticipate an impending hike on it as well.
Here’s how Honda’s sporty commuters fair in comparison.
Interestingly, the new price makes the NS200 Rs 152 more expensive than the TVS Apache RTR 200 4V dual-channel variant. While such a marginal difference may sound irrelevant, it makes the RTR 200 a compelling proposition. That’s because the latter is not only cheaper but offers more bang for your buck. You get ride modes, an adjustable front suspension along with adjustable brake and clutch levers none of which is present in the NS200. So if we were you, we’d take a long, hard look at the 2021 RTR 200 4V.
