There is an unprecedented demand for the newly launched Bajaj Pulsar RS 200. The bike which is being billed as the fastest Pulsar, got 1,000 bookings in seven days of its entry into the market and still counting, according to a report by Zigwheels.

The Pulsar RS 200 can be booked with a down payment of ₹5,000 and the model is available in two colours - red and yellow.
