On the sidelines of the launch of the 2024 Bajaj Pulsar N250, a senior Bajaj official has said that the Pulsar 400cc model (could be called NS400) will launch on May 3, 2024. We have been reporting about the imminent arrival of the new flagship model from Bajaj for a long time. In fact, it even kept automobile enthusiasts and digital rendering artists busy for years. There are innumerable virtual conceptualizations of a 400cc motorcycle from Bajaj by digital artists. But it somehow eluded us for the longest time. Finally, the two-wheeler giant has announced the arrival of its new top-of-the-line bike in May. Let us take a look at what it could offer.

Bajaj Pulsar 400cc Flagship Model
The fact that Bajaj is calling it Pulsar NS400 gives away certain elements of the design philosophy. NS moniker means that we will have a muscular motorbike, inspired by the NS200. Hence, the overall demeanour will be sporty and aggressive. We can expect sharp creases and a massive fuel tank with LED headlamps, an adventurous side profile and a meaningful rear section. Being a large NS product, it could feature a prominent exhaust pipe and large alloy wheels.
Features
In terms of features, it could come with an all-new fully digital display with Bluetooth connectivity. It will most likely feature the Bajaj Ride Connect app and the instrument cluster will show notifications and call/SMS alerts. Furthermore, there will also be real-time data with regard to fuel consumption, gear positioning, distance-to-empty, etc. As is the case with most modern bikes, it will get a USB charging port. More details will be revealed closer to the launch.

Specs
Even though there have been no official announcements about the specifications yet, there could be two alternatives. The Bajaj Pulsar NS400 could come with the same 373cc mill which powers the current Dominar 400. Alternatively, we could also see the new 399cc engine from the new-gen KTM Duke 390. We are leaning more towards the latter. However, it will be slightly de-tuned for a decent performance and not hardcore riding dynamics like on the KTM.
