Pros	Overall build quality is very good Engine performance is fast yet economical Sharp handling makes it fun to ride motorcycle Bluetooth-connected tech comes in handy on the go Suspension is very comfortable for the city	Stylish look with sharp design Refined 125cc engine with good mid-range performance The fit and finish of the motorcycle is top-notch Comes with single-channel ABS The handling of the motorcycle is quite good The NVH level is well-maintained It offers a well claimed fuel-efficiency of 66 kmpl	12.1 PS and 11.4 Nm give it an impressive performance focus for a 125cc motorcycle. The 5-inch TFT brings navigation, connectivity, and useful information to the segment. The stiffer frame and monoshock should improve handling and stability. Road, Rain, and Sport modes add versatility to everyday riding. Competitive pricing makes the technology and mechanical upgrades particularly appealing.
Cons	Design has now started to look old Not as feature-loaded as rivals Sitting posture is not very comfortable due to its sporty character	The styling is a bit too sharp for some consumers The rear seat is high which might create difficulty for ladies and old people Braking could have been better The suspension on the softer side Single-channel ABS is not standard	The impressive 5-inch TFT with navigation and connected features isn’t available across the range, making the lower variants feel considerably less premium. Even the top-spec Pulsar 125 continues with a 130mm rear drum, which feels dated given the motorcycle’s otherwise modern hardware. Maneuvering in tight spots or making U-turns on narrow streets requires more road width than a typical light commuter.
