Colombo Motor Show 2015 was held in Sri Lanka yesterday and it featured a couple of Transformers related items for the first time in the country’s history (Transformers movie franchise has been increasingly popular in the region during the last few years).
But we are not going to talk about the Chevrolet Camaro that was there. No, this article is about the new Bajaj Pulsar RS200 bike manufactured in India. KSI’s Pagani Huayra isn’t the only robot that is inspired by Bumblebee it seems. This 200CC engine bike which just launched few weeks ago, is designed after the Transformers: Age Of Extinction Concept Camaro Bumblebee. The front view of the bike features the face of the Autobot with the body color scheme and stripes from the Chevrolet Camaro. If you want you can also choose the red Stinger version inspired by the Pagani Huayra.
Much more powerful version titled SS400 will launch next year with a better 375CC Engine.
RS200 is priced at US$ 2000 while the upcoming SS400 is rumored to be priced at US$ 3000.
You can check out a commercial and photos courtesy of Raveen Lakmal & Dinesh Chandra Kumara from Sri Lanka, after the jump.

Wow! Very cool bike and really reminds Bumblebee! When lights are turned on, you just can see the upper part of his face Designers made an awesome job! I'm only feel the lack of Autobot Insignia Also I'm very glad to hear that popularity of Transformers increases in Sri-Lanka. I noticed that many hardcore Movie-fans come from non-North America, maybe because our mind was not affected by G1 and we perceive the Films with a fresh mind.

Wow! You've done quite a research on this. If RS200 is not coming to your country, see if SS400 is coming. It has the same styling as RS200.

I searched a bit, and the last Pulsar model is avaible in South America. I think its a problem of licenses, or something similar. Of course, this is by offcial ways, the second Market is full of bikes from Bajaj, but you know, broke one part and prepare the money …

Wow those look cool.
They should try to aim for the international market at some point.

Not just for Sri Lanka. It's for the South-East Asian market. Don't know whether it'll be shipped to other International markets.
