Pulsar 200 SS Vs Yamaha R15 - Comparative Review


In the previous article, you might have seen the two wheeler bike comparison between Pulsar 200 NS and Pulsar 200 SS. So in this article, I've compared the best and most popular bike models Bajaj Pulsar 200 SS and Yamaha YZF R15. Although the displacement(cc), max-power of Pulsar is more than Yamaha, people love to compare these two bikes when it comes to looks and speed in terms of pick up.

Undoubtedly, these two bikes are the most loved and popular super bikes of India. The look of Yamaha's older version wasn't so attractive and the sale wasn't so good until the new version(i.e R15 2.0)was launched.
