This new variant boasts several enhancements, most notably the addition of gold-coloured USD front forks, which adds a distinctive touch to its design. Safety features have also been upgraded with the inclusion of dual-channel ABS and an assist and slipper clutch, improving both safety and riding experience. Despite these updates, the motorcycle retains its familiar styling, which includes an LED projector headlamp, a USB Type-C charging port, and a single-piece seat setup. The digital instrument console remains unchanged, providing essential ride information, while higher variants offer Bluetooth connectivity and multiple ride modes. Mechanically, the Pulsar N160 continues to utilize the same 164.82 cc, single-cylinder, oil-cooled engine that generates 15.7 bhp and 14.65 Nm of torque, paired with a 5-speed gearbox. It rides on 17-inch alloy wheels and features disc brakes at both ends. The updated Pulsar N160 is available in various color options and is positioned against competitors such as the TVS Apache RTR 160 and Hero Xtreme 160R 4V.
