About the Bajaj Pulsar 180F

Overview

The Bajaj Pulsar 180F is a sports naked motorcycle from Bajaj Auto. It was launched in 2019 and has since been discontinued (production ended around 2021). Mechiee still services it at your doorstep. Naked and roadster bikes pair a lively engine with an upright riding position and little or no fairing, which makes them easy to live with every day. With a 178.6 cc engine it sits in the 150–250 cc class.

Engine and performance

Power comes from a 178.6 cc single-cylinder air-cooled fuel-injected engine that makes 17.02 PS at 8,500 rpm and 14.22 Nm of torque at 6,500 rpm. Its bore is wider than its stroke (63.0 x 56.0 mm), a short-stroke layout that generally favours higher revs. Divide power by kerb weight and it has about 117 PS per tonne; by that measure, there is enough go for confident city riding and relaxed highway cruising. The claimed top speed is 108 km/h. It has electric start.

Gearbox

It has a 5-speed manual gearbox, and a chain carries drive to the rear wheel. It uses a wet multi-plate clutch.

Chassis, brakes and tyres

It is built around a double cradle frame. Suspension is by telescopic with anti friction bush forks at the front and 5 way adjustable, nitrox shock absorber at the rear. Braking is by a 260 mm disc at the front and a 230 mm disc at the rear, with single-channel ABS. Single-channel ABS works on the front wheel, which does most of the stopping. It rides on 17-inch alloy wheels with tubeless tyres — 80/100-17 at the front and 110/80-17 at the rear.

Size, comfort and range

The seat is 790 mm off the ground, which is about average and suits most riders. It weighs 146 kg ready to ride. Ground clearance is 165 mm — enough for most speed breakers. It is 2,035 mm long, with 1,345 mm between the axles. It carries 15 L of fuel.

Features and equipment

Equipment includes an analogue and digital instrument console and a halogen headlamp. Safety equipment includes engine kill switch and low fuel indicator.

Maintaining the Bajaj Pulsar 180F

  • Routine servicing

    Follow the schedule in the owner's manual for your exact variant and year. A regular service is the cheapest way to catch small problems before they become expensive ones.

  • Engine oil & filter

    Engine oil is the single most important consumable to keep fresh. Top up between services if the level drops, and change it on schedule.

  • Brake inspection

    With Disc, 260 mm and Disc, 230 mm brakes, check pad or shoe wear, lever and pedal free play, and braking feel at every service.

  • Chain cleaning & lubrication

    A clean, correctly tensioned and lubricated chain lasts longer and wastes less power. Check slack regularly, especially after riding in rain or dust.

  • Air filter & spark plug

    A clogged air filter or worn spark plug shows up as hard starting, weak throttle response and poorer fuel economy. Both are checked at a regular service and replaced when worn.

  • Disc brake fluid

    Brake fluid absorbs moisture over time, which lowers its boiling point. Have its level and condition checked and change it on the interval in the owner's manual.

  • Tyre inspection

    This bike runs 80/100-17 / 110/80-17 tyres. Check pressure, tread depth and sidewalls, and replace tyres that are worn or cracked.

  • Battery & electricals

    The battery is listed as 12V Full DC MF. Weak starting, dim lights or a flickering console are early signs the battery or charging system needs a look.

Bajaj Pulsar 180F specs explained

What the technical terms on this page mean.

ABS
Anti-lock braking system. It stops a wheel locking up during hard braking so the rider can keep steering. A single-channel system works on one wheel, usually the front; a dual-channel system works on both.
OHC / SOHC / DOHC
How the engine's valves are operated. OHC and SOHC mean one overhead camshaft; DOHC means two, which usually allows higher revs and more power from the same size.
Fuel injection
Petrol is delivered by an electronically controlled injector instead of a carburettor, which helps with easy starting and steady fuel economy.
Air cooling
The engine is cooled by air flowing over its fins. It is simpler and needs no coolant, which keeps upkeep straightforward.
Tubeless tyres
Tyres with no inner tube. A small puncture usually loses air slowly, which makes roadside repair easier.
Kerb weight
The weight of the bike ready to ride, with its fluids and fuel, but without a rider or luggage.
Bore x stroke
The cylinder's width and the piston's travel. A larger bore relative to stroke tends to favour revs; a longer stroke tends to favour low-speed pull.
Compression ratio
How much the fuel-air mixture is squeezed before it is ignited. It is one of the factors behind an engine's efficiency and power.
