      The bike Is good. This bike has a lot of problems after a few years hence no one wants an old pulsar so the resale value is less. Design is good.

      The Bajaj Pulsar 125 Neon is a popular commuter bike known for its sporty design and fuel efficiency. Its 125cc engine provides a good balance between power and mileage. The neon accents on the bike add a youthful appeal. However, some users mention that the ride could be a bit on the stiffer side. Overall, it's a reliable choice for those seeking a stylish and fuel-efficient commuter bike in the 125cc segment.
