Bajaj CS400 spotted ahead of Its launch
The motorcycle was spotted without any camouflage in black colour which gives us quite an idea about the production version.
The highly awaited motorcycle, CS400 from the Indian manufacturer Bajaj has been under testing for quite a while. It grabbed a lot of attention during the 2014 Auto Expo. The motorcycle is expected to launch this month. Although, spied images of this motorcycle have appeared on the Internet which can satisfy your curiosity for the time being. The motorcycle was spotted without any camouflage in black colour which gives us quite an idea about the production version.
Looking at the spied images, it is clear that Bajaj has not made any major changes to the overall design of the motorcycle. The front fairing sports a LED headlight setup with a swept-back visor that has been blacked out, giving the bike an aggressive look. The concept model at the expo featured USD forks while the production model will come with conventional telescopic forks. Also, the seat on the spied bike is a split design instead of a single piece one. Bajaj has equipped the production-spec CS400 with the same alloy wheels that were showcased on the concept bike. The CS400 comes with a split instrument cluster with an LCD display located between the handlebars displaying the tachometer, trip meter, fuel gauge and other details. The other is mounted on the tank and will display the speed and gear position.
Powering the Bajaj CS400 will be a 373cc single-cylinder liquid-cooled fuel injected motor borrowed from the KTM 390 Duke. The engine will be tuned to suit the characteristics of the bike and is likely to develop around 35PS of power and 33Nm of torque. It will come mated to a 6-speed gearbox with tweaks done for more low-end power. Apart from the different engine covers, the engine of the CS400 will have Bajaj’s signature Triple-Spark Technology for improved performance and efficiency.
When launched, the Bajaj Pulsar CS400 is expected to be priced between 1.5 lakh and 1.7 lakh, ex-showroom, and will compete against the likes of the KTM 390 Duke, Mahindra Mojo and the Royal Enfield Himalayan.
