And if you’re someone who likes spontaneous rides, a reliable bike is a necessity. That’s where the Bajaj Pulsar N160 dual-channel ABS steps in. With the right mix of strength, control, and comfort, it’s built for riders who want more than just a way to reach their destination. It's for those who like the journey, even when the roads are rough.

Let’s break down why this ride might just be the one you're looking for.

What Sets Bajaj Pulsar N160 Apart From Others?

While the motorcycle market of Sri Lanka is thriving with countless exciting rides, Bajaj’s Pulsar range has a special place in the hearts of the riders. With the promise of quality and the reliability of Bajaj, models like the Bajaj Pulsar N160 dual channel continue to redefine performance.

Wondering what makes it stand apart from competitors? Here are all the features that contribute to its renowned status in Sri Lanka!

Engine Performance

The Pulsar N160 dual-channel ABS is fuelled by a 164.82 cc air-cooled engine that delivers 16 PS at 8750 rpm and 14.65 Nm of torque at 6750 rpm. This setup provides smooth acceleration and ample power for both city commuting and intercity cruising. The 5-speed gearbox ensures precise gear shifts, enhancing the overall riding experience.

Braking and Safety

Safety is a key feature of the Pulsar N160. It comes equipped with Dual Channel ABS, offering superior braking performance and preventing wheel lock during sudden stops. The 300 mm front and 230 mm rear disc brakes provide confident stopping power, essential for Sri Lanka's diverse road conditions.

Suspension and Handling

The bike features 37 mm telescopic front forks and a Nitrox monoshock rear suspension, absorbing bumps and providing a comfortable ride on various terrains. This setup ensures stability and control, whether you're navigating through city traffic or exploring rural roads.

Design and Aesthetics

With its aggressive styling and dual-tone colour schemes, the Pulsar N160 stands out on the road. From the front, the projector LED headlamp stands out immediately. It throws out a strong beam at night, so those long rides aren’t as tiring. The signature DRLs give it a sharp edge during the day.

From the side, the underbelly exhaust adds to its sporty feel. It also helps in weight distribution, so the bike doesn’t feel front-heavy or loose from behind.

And that dual-tone paintwork? It’s just enough to get noticed at a fuel station without screaming for attention.

Comfort and Convenience

The bike's ergonomic design ensures rider comfort, even on longer journeys. The seat is longer than it looks. Flat and wide, it doesn’t force you into a tight posture. If you’re riding with a pillion, they get enough room too.

The foot pegs are placed just right, so you do not need to fold your knees too much. You ride upright, but with a slight lean forward, which adds to the control and the comfort.

Tank and Mileage

The tank holds 14 litres, enough to skip a couple of fuel stops when heading out on a longer ride. You won’t feel the need to refuel every hour.

And if you ride steadily, the mileage sits somewhere around 45-50 km per litre in real conditions. Of course, it depends on how and where you ride, but it’s still pocket-friendly enough for daily runs.

Compact, Clean, Complete Digital Cluster

The console is fully digital, but it doesn’t try to impress you with too many numbers. It tells you everything about speed, fuel, gear position, and trip meter. There’s also a clock, so you don’t have to pull out your phone at a red light.

It’s bright during the day and readable at night. Even during sudden rain or dark turns, you’ll get clear readings.

Tyres That Run on All Surfaces

On many bikes, you will lose grip when the roads get tough. But the Bajaj Pulsar N160 dual-channel ABS is different.

The front tyre measures 100/80-17, and the rear goes wider with 130/70-17. Both come tubeless. Wide tyres build confidence. You feel like you're riding with more control and power every day.

Colours and Pricing

The Pulsar N160 Dual Channel ABS is available in several striking colours, including Brooklyn Black, Caribbean Blue, and Racing Red.

Priced at LKR 935,000 as of 2025, it offers a blend of performance, safety, and style, making it a compelling choice for riders seeking a reliable and stylish motorcycle. And truth be told, for what it offers, it still comes in as a Pulsar N160 premium choice that doesn’t burn your monthly budget!

Summing Up

Whether you're a young professional clocking regular city miles, a student looking for a stylish yet steady first ride, or someone who enjoys road trips to places like Mahiyanganaya or Ella, this bike fits right into your lifestyle.

What makes it stand out is its feel of a sports bike. It’s fast without being wasteful, smooth without being soft, and powerful without being heavy. That’s what makes the Pulsar N160 dual-channel ABS a smart choice for practical riders who still want that rush on the road.
