Test mules of the updated 2026 Bajaj Pulsar 125 have been spotted undergoing road testing in India ahead of its official debut. The spotted test bike showcases major mechanical, visual, and technological changes aimed at modernizing the entry-level commuter sportbike segment.
Key Feature Upgrades
-
TFT Instrument Console: The standout feature is a fully digital TFT display—similar to the newly launched Pulsar N160 SS. The cluster is expected to support Bluetooth connectivity, enabling turn-by-turn navigation, along with call and SMS alerts.
-
Monoshock Rear Suspension: Departing from the traditional twin gas-charged shock absorbers, the 2026 model transitions to a rear monoshock setup, likely improving overall ride stability and aesthetic appeal.
-
Redesigned Front & Side Profiles: The motorcycle gets a redesigned LED headlight assembly, a revised front fender, a repositioned high-mounted license plate holder, and a windscreen with rounded edges. The fuel tank receives sharper shrouds and updated body graphics.
-
Ergonomic & Hardware Revisions: Key updates include a toe-only gear lever replacing the traditional heel-toe shifter, a light plastic chain guard, larger split grab rails, revised pillion footpegs, a dual-tone exhaust muffler, and a revised rear taillight.
-
Added Practicality: The updated test mule features a Type-C USB charging port and hazard lights.
