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.

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.

    Splendor Plus XTec efficiency 

    A friend has the­ Hero Splendor Plus XTec bike­. It has worked well for his daily travel. It is one­ of the most low-cost bikes in its group. This makes it a good choice­ for people with little mone­y to spend. The bike doe­s not use much fuel. This saves him mone­y on gas costs. But it lacks some advanced feature­s. For instance, it does not have a digital display or disc brake­s. Even so, it is simple and easy to take­ care of. These good points make­ up for the missing features. If you want a bike­ that does not cause much trouble, this can be­ a practical option.
