The semi-faired design of the legendary Pulsar 220F will be maintained in the 2023 version. It has similar components to the previous generation's projector headlamp, halogen turn indicators, telescopic front forks, and more up front. This semi-faired bike is distinguished by its unusual headlamp, engine cowl, shoulder fairing, large windscreen, and clip-on handlebars.
New decals, graphics made to seem like faux carbon fibre, and a split seat arrangement are all added to the bike's side profile. The bike's overall design is enhanced by the black engine casing and the upswept exhaust. An iconic split LED tail lamp design with halogen indicators is featured on the bike's back. It rides on 17-inch tubeless alloy wheels and has disc brakes with single-channel ABS at both ends.
