On top of the 150cc bike sales list for January 2021 sits the Bajaj Pulsar 150, defeating its rival from TVS by a considerable margin.
While the Pulsar found 32,460 takers, the entire Apache RTR series of motorcycles could only fetch 28,456 unit sales, and contend with second position in the list.
Honda’s Unicorn moves back to third place once again in January, after briefly falling to fourth spot in December last year. The Japanese motorycle found 25,799 takers.

Seventh position was bagged by Hero MotoCorp’s Xtreme, for it found 5443 takers. The exact contribution of the Xtreme 200S in this figure is not known.
