I have a 2017 Bajaj Pulsar 150, and recently it developed an engine-related issue. I took it to the Bajaj service centre, and they’re quoting around ₹22–25k for the repair.

Considering the bike is almost 10 years old, I’m not sure if it makes sense to spend that much on it.

Are there any reliable local mechanics/workshops in Bengaluru who are experienced with Pulsar engine repairs and can do the job for a more reasonable price?

I’m currently around Bellandur, so preferably somewhere around Bellandur, Marathahalli, HSR, Sarjapur, Whitefield, or nearby would be ideal.

Also, for anyone who has dealt with a similar issue:

Is ₹22–25k a reasonable estimate for a Pulsar 150 engine repair?

Would you recommend getting a second opinion from an independent mechanic?

At what repair cost would you personally consider selling the bike instead?

Any recommendations for a trustworthy mechanic would be really helpful.
