As Bajaj Auto further claims, the particular Bajaj Pulsar NS200 model used to set the record was in original showroom stock condition and a special waiver was requested for and obtained from the steward for removal of the number plates and the rear mudguard to avoid scrapping the tarmac during the wheelie.
Commenting on successfully performing the wheelie and setting the record with the Pulsar NS200, Hrushikesh Mandke said that he learnt to stunt on the first-generation Bajaj Pulsar, and delighted to perform the wheelie into the record books with the Pulsar NS200. "I have always trusted the Pulsar to deliver the performance and safety to enable extraordinary motorcycle stunts and it is fantastic that Indian stunt riders are now gunning for the record books, with made-in-India motorcycles," he further added.
