Bajaj Pulsar NS200 vs KTM 390 Duke

The Bajaj Pulsar NS200 (2025) and the KTM 390 Duke (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 KTM 390 Duke is a naked bike with 399 cc, 44.4 hp and 165 kg. Power-to-weight with the rider: 103.6 hp/ton versus 184.9 hp/ton. On this measure the KTM 390 Duke is 78% ahead.

In the simulation the Bajaj Pulsar NS200 covers 0-100 km/h (speedometer) in 9.07 s and the KTM 390 Duke in 5.48 s; the KTM 390 Duke is quicker by 3.59 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 43.7 m for the KTM 390 Duke (with ABS). Calculated top speed: 111 km/h (GPS measurement) versus 167 km/h (test measurement).

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.
