Dude, i bought my 220 DTS-i just 5 months back. Cost was Rs 77,000/- (complete on road price). One day wen i was riding from collg to home, someone on R15 showed me the so called “finger fuck”. He Challenged me to race 10km on Highway.

You wont believe that from starting to end, he was behind my ass!!! Not even once he was able to overtake my Pulsar 220. Finally i reached 145km/hr n he was completely fucked that time…

!!!Hats Off!!! to Bajaj Pulsar 220 Dts-i as it kept in exceeding to 155 & on. Finally i cut the throttle. Since then i never saw that fool(Rider+his R15) again… 220 aka THE FASTEST INDIAN.

R15 is undoubtedly a good bike as per the technology is concerned but when it comes to real testing its way behind pulsar 220.I hv just owned the 220 after undergoing full testing of Pulsar220,R15 & karizma ZMR.But seriously pulsar is a value 4 money bike.it has better cornering than both the bikes & due to higher torque it has higher acceleration at top gear with lower rpms tht make it better than others.As per the vibrations are concerned u gonna feel tht after notching up 130km/hr.
Also as per the battery problem it has xenon headlamps & u need to switch off the lights before starting the bike otherwise no problem.

i agree that the dtsi is the fastest,but it has got the most famous problem,BATTERY PROBLEM!

its been just 1 1/2 months i got ma new 220dtsi,but now i have the starting problem already!

i changed ma battery(in warranty) and got it replaced by a new one,but the new one too sucks,the headlamp sucks all the power out of the battery!

i recommend go for something economic,as 220 is not!

You get Lemons in all Makes be it a BMW Mercedes or even a Bajaj.
Overall i have found the Pulsars very rugged for my style of abuse. My BIL’s Pulsar 150 inspired me to buy the 220 and its a great machine for the price. I was infact inclined for the Bullet until the 150 made me change my mind about Pulsars.

have patience and get the problem sorted it certainly is less time waiting if you were to buy a Bullet and visit the service center thrice a week. just a comparo.

one of my fren have p220fi his pick power is so blact that i can’t say but p220dtsi pickup power is not satisfied power n it is said that p220dtsi produces one horsepower more than its fuel inject predecessor what does it mean i think 200 is better then p220dtsi isn’t it?

Anil if this was the case, then I suspect that the bike you test rode, had some issue with the rear brake. I have had the pleasure of riding quite a few Pulsar 220 DTSi and DTS-Fi and I haven’t yet faced this issue.

As for pickup of 220 DTS-Fi being better, well it is true to a certain degree, as the fuel injection provides better throttle response and in gear acceleration.
