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.

    Smooth and refined engine 

    It can easily give mileage around 35 to 40 kmpl and everything feels good and now it comes with the modern features. It gives good power in the initial and mid range and is very good for both city and the highway and it is a commuting style powerful bike. It is a good enough bike and there is no problem with this bike and the seat of this bike is large and comfortable but the top end performance is not good. The engine refinement is very good without any vibration and is very smooth.

    The N160 is a beast 

    After clocking over 5,000 kilometers on my Bajaj Pulsar N160, it’s time to tell the story. The N160 is a beast, with an engine that delivers 15.7 HP and a torque of 14 Nm making it an absolute joy to rev. Its fuel efficiency is commendable too, standing at around 45 kmpl striking a fine balance between performance and economy.The bike's handling and agility in traffic are top notch all thanks to its lightweight frame and responsive brakes. Riding it feels secure and exhilarating at the same time.

    the most attractive thing on road 

    The Bajaj Pulsar N160, with its 164.82cc engine, offers a slight power boost over the N150. It is decent for city rides with good , though not ideal for high speeds. It delivers around 45-50 kmpl in the city and comes with features like LED headlamps and digital instrument clusters. Comfort-wise, the split seat and handling are satisfactory, but some feel the suspension is stiff on rough roads. Safety features include disc brakes with optional ABS. While it's stylish, affordable, and fuel-efficient, it might not suit highway enthusiasts extreme power or high speeds.
