Q. What's changed in Apache BS6 and when it will be launched?
  • The power and torque have been reduced in the BS 6 version. The look has been facelifted and gives more premium feel to the machine. Headlight is upgraded from halogen to full LED which has better luminance. There is no carburetor variant in BS6 as Fi is kept standard. Price for dual disc variant has got up by around 8000. Exhaust has been made more crispier which resembles to KTM. The electric start mechanism has improved, you hear almost no motor noise on pressing the start button.The engine is more tuned to race and RTFi (race tuned fuel injection) has been added. Overall BS6 variant is 30-40% better
  • The most exciting update for the RTR 160 is definitely the bump in power. While the current-gen RTR 160’s engine is the familiar 159.7cc air-cooled one, it now makes 16.04PS and 13.85Nm, 0.51PS more but 0.05Nm less than its predecessor. The new bike is also 2kg lighter than the outgoing model. TVS has replaced the previous-gen RTR 160’s semi-analogue cluster with a new digital unit that facilitates Bluetooth connectivity and also boasts TVS’ SmartXonnect tech with voice assist, a segment-first feature. Also on offer are features like turn-by-turn navigation, gear position indicator and shift assist, call and notification alerts and more. That said, only the top-of-the-line 2022 RTR 160 gets Bluetooth connectivity. The LCD console also has three riding modes: Sport, Urban and Rain, which can be changed on-the-fly, and alter the throttle mapping as well as ABS sensitivity. It has already been launched. Moreover, we would suggest you to take a test ride before making the final decision. Follow the link and select your desired city for dealership details.
  • It don't have any more change in bs4 you get blackish light in speedometer and now you will get the blue light the major change in the bike is it's bs6 engine and some little amount of cut and sketch to give the more sporty look to the bike and no more.

Q. Which is the better option for family bike between Honda unicorn and TV's Apache 160?
  • Among the two, if you are looking for a calm and comfortable bike with a reliable and refined engine, then the Honda Unicorn would be a good option. Unicorn has always been the go-to bike if you were planning to buy a 150cc commuter and with the BS6 update, the Unicorn now gets a larger 163cc fuel-injected, air-cooled engine. With the old-school styling, it still remains a well-rounded motorcycle. On the other hand, if you are looking for sporty motorcycle with bits of modern elements, then you may opt for the TVS Apache RTR 160. Given the RTR 160 2V BS6’s low pricing, it is a viable and relevant stepping stone into the 160cc segment. Moreover, we would suggest you to take a test ride before making the final decision. Follow the link and select your desired city for dealership details.Read More: - Honda Unicorn vs TVS Apache RTR 160

    Great power and torque 

    The seat of Bajaj Avenger 220 Street is most comfortable and the space is very good on the seat and the fuel tank design look different. The torque is really good and the initial and mid range gives great power but the top end is not good. The engine refinement is good but the top end gives very high vibration. The clutch of this bike is very light and the gearbox is very smooth and the seating position is very comfortable and the suspension is excellent also on the bad road with good stabiltiy.

    The Urban Cruiser 

    When I bought the Bajaj Avenger 220 Street, I was looking for a bike that could handle daily commutes and occasional long rides with equal ease. The Avenger 220 Street With its commanding street presence, low slung seat and a powerful 220cc engine, seemed like the perfect match. The cruiser's engine, producing 19.03 PS power and 17.5Nm torque has never left me wanting, whether navigating city traffic or cruising on the highway.However the journey has not been all smooth in terms of comfort.

Aesthetically catchy with roomy seating position offers the rider the opportunity to pick the bike from the rest of other cruisers. The low road 220 Street shows ​ ​how it delivers ​high-end satisfying rides along with nice handling ​ characteristics, this ​definitely brings back the feel of cruising joy. By releasing the power in an unhurried manner, the system is able to ensure that drivers on long trips enjoy a gentle and comfortable ride. Safety parts like the disc brakes will make rides more playful as now you would not have to worry about the brakes. The inviting seat and eye-catching styling only serve to increase the closet's attractiveness. Bajaj Avenger 220 street is indeed a classic car, a certainly new standard to the other cruiser cars when it comes to style and comfort."
