The Bajaj Pulsar is one of the more popular motorcycle brands in the country and has a strong following among the masses. Introducing a common gathering for owners and enthusiasts of the brand, Bajaj Auto kick-started the Festival of Speed event, which now moves into it its third season. The first of the many public events commenced on December 23 in Gurugram and will be making its way to other cities including Hyderabad, Mumbai, Pune, Bangalore and Chennai. The event is open to all Pulsar owners and the entry is free.
The Bajaj Pulsar Festival of Speed is spread across two days and will be hosted in important locations in the city. Day one will be all about organising motorcycle clinics while day two will have fans participating in competitions and the festival.

The third season offers Pulsar fans with the introduction of India's First Stunt Championship. All the amateur racing and stunt enthusiasts will get mentorship from the ace champions and riders spread over two Day Pit Stop sessions to fine tune their skills.
