Q. Which is better Avenger cruise or street 220?
  • Cruise 220 is best for city & Long Driving. I'm using this bike for the past one year. Its comfort is awesome. Its a better option for daily use & Long Drives. For the past one year I have traveled 6 long drives. Comfort and suspension is excellent.
  • Both cruise 220 and street are having same heart ,that is 220cc engine but 220 cruise is looking more classic with its lots of chrome inserts and additionally a wind shield but you should wait till 2019 for new govt. Norms for ABS mandatory for theses bike because I am riding 220 cruise and I am little disappointed with its braking . So as per me u should wait till 2019 for ABS version of avenger range.
  • If you're looking out for the 220cc engine, then its up to you w.r.t the looks. If you're more of that street rider, then look for the Street. Its got the handle bars designed for the streets. Cruise is got more of that highway riding posture. Its more comfortable on the highways and if you're from a place where you got good roads, less traffic, then go for the Avenger Cruise 220.

Q. Sir, which one bike is better between Bajaj Avenger 180 Street and Bajaj Avenger 220 Cruise in terms of mileage, looks, performance and comfort?
  • There’s no difference in terms of performance and fuel efficiency if you compare Street 180 and Cruise 220. Both bike fuel efficiency of 40 at the cost of performance.Major difference in Cruise 220 and Street 180 is in their looks. Street, having flat handlebar, has better handling experience in city traffic. On the other hand, Cruise gives better ‘cruiser like’ feel.
  • Sir mileage is better in 180 street because it have a less cc engine then cruise. Cruise have around 30-35 mileage.Looks make you royal in cruise and make you sporty tourer in street avenger.Performance wise avenger cruise is winner.Comfort wise no doubt blindly avenger cruise is best
  • On looks and comfort, 220 cruise is anyday a hands-on winner for me. On mileage, 180 cruise is reportedly better, naturally because of a lighter, newer fuel efficient engine.

Q. Which is better when you compare cruise 220 vs thunder bird 350?
  • I am an owner of avenger cruise 220 too and I also had some experience with RE. To be frank comparing avenger and RE doesn't make any sense. People with very little to absolutely no knowledge say that you should have bought RE. Don't listen to them, but think and be clear what really you want… Let me break down some points for you1. RE are OLD SCHOOL thumper. Since in every machine the product of SPEED and TORQUE remains constant. RE have a Huge amount of torque and thus they are not fast even with 350cc. On the other hand Avenger have same pulser 220 engine and yes they calibrated that to some extent to produce a decent amount of torque for avenger.We all know RE are slow. They have huge torque and that's why it feels more powerful but that's not true.. You know while riding on road some times people start racing just to show…. whatever… Well I had several these experiences when a RE rider tried to overtake me..lol.. And each n everytime, all I have to do is pull the throttle down just a lil and boom….. They NEVER had been able to overtake me…avenger may not be as fast as a pulser or Duke or any other sports bike but don't forget it's Soul is from one of the fastest bike in India(pulser 220)…its soul is sports and body a cruiser…so it's a quiet an interesting bike.2. Harley Davidson ,indian,etc are different class of bike and the true cruisers having all the physical features of what a cruiser is including high low end torque. On the other hand RE are NOT AT All a cruiser(I am talking about classic 350 and bullet standard,i don't even consider Thunderbird to be a bike… )Thunderbird is an experiment by RE, in my point of view , coz Thunderbird has blunders. Yes, Thunderbird looks AWESOME..I love that bike just for the look. Infact her looks counterbalance every other major or minor drawbacks of her.3. Our mind follow the facts but heart don't…my heart have a secret love for RE. Even though the vibrations are a hassle and it's a fact that they don't feels good to ride even at speed like 55 kmph , people still love it.So the overall conclusion it that you wanted a cruiser type bike and you got 40% genetic cruiser. That's all..be happy with that… Avenger is only cruiser available in such a low price… For a real cruiser , one must go to Harley , Indian, Intruder Suzuki,.4. So do not worry when people say that you sound have bought RE. Think that they are ignorant people who just blindly preach the name of RE without knowing the fact that Avenger is a far better cruiser than RE Thunderbird and much faster than any RE bikes(excluding 500cc).On the other hand RE classic and bullet standard are beautiful classic bikes which are legendary…and that doesn't make avenger inferior.
  • Even though the CC is more on Thunderbird, Cruise 220 wins the Drag. Both the bikes are cruisers and choose the one you like. I personally prefer the Cruise because i save almost 80K and both serves the purpose of being Cruise bikes. Maintenance is cheaper on the Cruise. Choosing one is upto you if you are a fanboy of one of these brands.
  • Well,the avenger churns out 19.5 hp so does the REthunerbird, but the RE has more torque than avenger. average of avenger is 40 and thunderbird below 30. braking of new RE is dual disc while in avenger the back is drum,so RE has an advantage there. the RE has a lot of vibrations and the avenger has negligible, price difference is about 60,000 between the two, and bajaj servicing is very cheap and the spare parts are also very cheap, so the BAJAJ AVENGER is a much more practical in my opinion,,. by the way i have ridden both these bikes a lot, and avenger best in terms of handling too.

    Feel with Extra Comfort 

    " The Bajaj Avenger Cruise 220 has been an excellent bike as it has successfully combined the old school cruiser looks with the new era technology without any hitch. Its distinctive profile and roomy driving style make it a great pick from the crowd. ""The Cruise 220's performance in movements and handling is so smooth that it redefines our understanding of free-flowing enjoyment of sailing. This is what I can strongly say after different tries. Future unit will not only deliver power linearly, this would guarantee smooth and soft ride over long distance. Security systems give the designer such as quick brakes quite a boost of confidence when on the path. The seat is cushioned for comfort and the design lends to overall beautification. Bajaj came up with one masterpiece with Avenger Cruise 220, making way ahead in this type of bikes. Regarding fashion and comfort, they have created a new benchmark."

    I purchased Kawasaki W175 

    I purchased kawasaki w175 after test driving it.It is a very smooth engine and is at its best when in the range of 40-70 kmph.Very good in city conditions easy to handle light weight.The chassis is durable and sturdy.The mileage is a decent 40-45 kmpl.The more you ride it, The more you love it.It’s not for speed enthusiasts, This bike is for the ones who like to cruise smoothly at 60 kmph enjoying the weather, Engine feel without worrying about handling tech and all just classic retro motorcycling experience.Pleasure to shift gears, Decent ground clearance, Accessible seat height, Low kerb weight, Decent shock absorbers decent braking capabilities considering that you won’t enjoy speeds more than 80 in this one and pure motorcycling experience.It’s great for a weekend rides of 50-100kms.Coming to negative tube tyres, Limited showrooms for sales and service, Lack of accessories (given the minimalist design there is great scope of adding accessories), Seat structure and cushioning (not great for very long rides).I am not considering cost of vehicle as negative because you have to try it to believe it… it’s that good a motorcycle.Lastly it’s a great motorcycle for those who enjoy a cruising and a no brainier for beginners to motorcycling.Thank me later after having a test ride.

    I purchased Jupiter 110 Classic 

    I purchased jupiter 110 classic model in 2021.This scooter offers a great driving experience with leather padded seat, The back person is also comfortable.The best thing which it offers according to me is that it doesn't feel like you are riding 110 cc scooter because it's engine feels quite powerful, Which is the trademark of tvs.The pickup is quite slow, It gives the mileage of 60-63 km/l.It body is made up of good quality steel due to which it seems powerful.It also produces a little more vibration but it is not a big problem.After sale services is also excellent you get some free services and some paid services at service centre of tvs.

    There is no doubt that kawasaki is ruling over all the best bikes in terms of looks and style as it actually retains the retro look apart, From, It has a 177cc engine with a five-speed manual gearbox and 12.8bhp which produces 13.2nm torque which rides an amazing.The riding is smooth and comfortable as well.I like all the models of kawasaki due to their engine performance.

    W denoted the modern 

    W denoted the modern range motorcycle with retro looks to give more definition to the bike.And kawasaki was able to pull it off very easily as the design and the looks are so stunning.I enjoy the dual color combination in which it is available.The knee spot over the fuel tank i think is copied from the re version of bikes.But overall, I’m hell impressed with w 175.
