I bought my Pulsar 180 back in 2002

Ricky, quit bullshitting. I bought my Pulsar 180 back in 2002 and its been running well ever since. I’ve had very few problems with it, i’ve ridden it hard, going all the way to the redline@ 9000rpm regularly. The CBZ was not able to match the Pulsar in performance and appearance, and lost its appeal after only 3 years on the market. In contrast, the Pulsars both 150 and 180 have been good performers in all respects.
Bajaj have also built the Pulsar brand up quite admirably, updating the bike every so often, and so it is now approaching its 6th year on the market, and still whipping all the opposition. A good number of 150cc bikes from TVS, Hero Honda, LML, etc have all come and gone, having failed miserably in trying to usurp the Pulsars. Bajaj have translated their success in the premium bike segment to their lower level bike as well meaning greater market share in the entire motorbike arena.
The CBZ extreme has not brought anything new to the scene, and is unlikely to have much effect on the Pulsar’s dominance. Even as Hero Honda try to rekindle old glories, Bajaj are bringing in a new range of Pulsars, laden with technology. As it stands (including the CBZ xtreme) , the Bajaj stable is rock solid.
