Bajaj Pulsar NS200 vs Honda Africa Twin

ESTIMATED SIMULATION

Run the comparison →

The Bajaj Pulsar NS200 (2025) and the Honda Africa Twin (2025) are compared with the same Moto Kıyas physics model under identical conditions: flat dry asphalt, no wind, a 75 kg rider and no passenger. The Bajaj Pulsar NS200 is a naked bike with 200 cc, 24.1 hp and 158 kg; the Honda Africa Twin is a adventure bike with 1,084 cc, 100.6 hp and 244 kg. Power-to-weight with the rider: 103.6 hp/ton versus 315.3 hp/ton. On this measure the Honda Africa Twin is 204% ahead.

In the simulation the Bajaj Pulsar NS200 covers 0-100 km/h (speedometer) in 9.07 s and the Honda Africa Twin in 3.02 s; the Honda Africa Twin is quicker by 6.06 s. In the 100-0 km/h brake test, braking distance without the 0.3 s reaction time is 43.7 m for the Bajaj Pulsar NS200 (with ABS) and 41.4 m for the Honda Africa Twin (with ABS). The Honda Africa Twin stops 2.3 m shorter. Calculated top speed: 111 km/h (GPS measurement) versus 199 km/h (manufacturer claim).

All values are an estimated simulation, not road-test measurements. Technical data comes from the sources listed below; the model uses model-specific parameters calibrated against published road tests for both.

Data sources and calibration

Specifications: the sources below (manufacturer pages, plus road-test or spec sites where the manufacturer gives no figure). Acceleration, braking and top speed: Moto Kıyas physics simulation (power/torque curve, gearing, drag, traction and wheelie limits, ABS assumption), calibrated against published road tests where available. Estimated, not measured.
