The Bajaj Pulsar 220F just won’t quit. Bajaj officially launched the 2026 version this week, and it’s basically the same “Fastest Indian” we’ve known for two decades—just with a bit more jewelry.1 The sticker price is holding steady at ₹1.28 lakh (ex-showroom).2
The big news? LED indicators. Finally. They’ve swapped out those chunky old bulb units for something sleek and modern. It’s a small touch, but it makes the bike look significantly less like a 2010 relic. And they’ve thrown in four new colors to keep things fresh.

What’s New (And What Isn’t)
The thing is, Bajaj knows better than to mess with the engine. If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it, right?
The Colors: You’ve got Black Cherry Red, Black Ink Blue, Black Copper Beige, and the standout—Green Light Copper. That green one is actually pretty bold for a Pulsar.
The Tech: It carries over the digital console with Bluetooth, turn-by-turn navigation, and the Ride Connect app.3
The Safety: Now, here’s the kicker. There were some rumors about Dual-Channel ABS, but let’s be real—it’s still sticking with Single-Channel ABS. It’s a bit of a letdown for 2026, but it keeps the price accessible. Or nothing.

What draws people to the 220F is that semi-faired look. It still offers that decent wind protection for highway cruising, and it’ll still hit 135 kmph without breaking a sweat.4 It’s an ongoing love affair for the Indian biker who wants performance without the “KTM” price tag.
The 2026 model is already hitting dealerships. If you’re looking for a bike that feels familiar but doesn’t look totally dated in the parking lot, this is it. Those too.
