Bajaj Pulsar 180F

  • The ergos are accessible for riders of all heights
  • Braking performance is brilliant.

Honda Unicorn

  • Fairly light for an old-school 150cc motorcycle
  • Gets lots of ground clearance
  • Features a longer seat for improved comfort

Bajaj Pulsar 180F

  • The console feels dated with essential data like range/distance to empty indicator and gear position indicator still missing.Lacks modern features like LED headlights and slipper clutch.Too expensive for a 180cc motorcycle.

Honda Unicorn

  • Dated looks
  • Honda hasn’t provided the start-stop function or a silent starter
  • Commands a considerable premium over the BS4-compliant version

Q. Between Unicorn 160 and Avenger 160, which one is good?
  • Selecting between the Honda Unicorn and Bajaj Avenger Street 160 would depend on certain factors such as preference of the segment, budget, features required and usage of the bike. If you are looking for a daily commuter with a much refined engine and old-school styling then you may opt for the Unicorn. Honda Unicorn has always been the go-to bike if you were planning to buy a 160cc commuter. On the other hand, if you are looking for a comfortable mile muncher and an affordable cruiser, then the Avenger Street 160 would be a better pick. For a better understanding of compatibility and riding comfort, we would suggest you to take a test ride. Follow the link and select your desired city for dealership.

Q. I am planning to buy a bike in this month, I daily commute 75 km's in rough road, I want good mileage and better suspension to handle rough road, In my mind I have three options Honda Unicorn 160, Apache RTR 160 4V, Yamaha FZ Fi V3 price is not a constraint to me. Please suggest which one is better?
  • As per your requirement, we would suggest you opt for the TVS Apache RTR 160 4V. With the BS6-compliant iteration, TVS has made sure it is still as sprightly as ever despite the slight drop in power and torque figures. Still, Apache RTR 160 4V is a brilliant offering from TVS stable and offers great ride quality, good handling dynamics, a performance-packed engine and a feature-rich instrument console. The suspension setup soaks up undulations with ease while providing a calm and composed ride. Moreover, we would suggest you take a test ride before making the final decision. Follow the link and select your desired city for dealership details.

  • Honda Unicorn
  • The Pulsar 220F competes with the Hero Xtreme 200S. The Xtreme 200S is the most affordable 200cc faired motorcycle, it also has an impressive features list, which works in its favour. The Pulsar 220F, doesn’t boast a long feature list, but it has always remained a proper value-for-money motorcycle for someone looking for a sporty motorcycle.It still comes in two colours: blue and red
