Recently Asked User Questions

Q. I am looking for family bike under 200000.which is the best option Pulsar 150 or Unicorn 160 or sp160 or apache 160r 2v. also looking for long term ownership.
  • This bike is so smooth and comfortable to sit in that bike
  • Unicorn
  • All the vehicles have their own strengths in their respective segments. The Bajaj Pulsar 150 is a dependable and affordable choice with a wide service network, though it feels slightly dated in terms of features. The Honda Unicorn 160 is appreciated for its refined engine and comfort, making it an excellent option for long-term family use, though it comes with fewer modern features. The Honda SP160 offers a well-balanced package with updated styling, reliable performance, and good comfort. Meanwhile, the TVS Apache RTR 160 2V is better suited for those who prefer a sportier and more performance-focused ride, though its running costs may be a bit higher. Ultimately, the decision depends on your individual preference and requirements, so we recommend visiting your nearest authorized dealership for a test ride before finalizing your choice
Q. Is it good for long rides or ronin is better because both have same crusing speed and seat of ronin is very small , And which has the good pillion comfort?
  • Both the Honda Unicorn and TVS Ronin offer comfortable riding experiences suitable for long journeys. The Unicorn features an upright seating position and well-tuned suspension, enhancing comfort during extended rides. The Ronin provides a relaxed riding posture with a well-padded seat. We would like to suggest you to take the test ride.https://www.zigwheels.com/bike-comparison/honda-unicorn-vs-tvs-ronin
Q. Which is a better choice: TVS NTORQ 125, Suzuki Acess or TVS Jupiter?
  • All three vehicles are good in their own forte. The latest variants of the NTorq offer something for everyone - the base model for the budget conscious, the Race XP for those who crave performance, and the XT for those who value tech. Truly one of the best scooters in India. On the other hand, the competition offers much more than just an LED headlight, an external fuel filler, an eco-assist indicator, and fuel injection. But being liberal with features wasn’t one of Suzuki’s strengths in the first place; its sweet little engine is what got people hooked on to it. The sheer eagerness and refinement of the motor along with its ease of use put other scooters to shame, thus setting a new benchmark in the 125cc family scooter segment. And the TVS Jupiter 125 is an excellent scooter when it comes to comfort and practicality. Its performance and fuel efficiency are also decent for a scooter in its segment. However, its high price tag is a bit of a bummer, as you find more features in its rivals at the same price point. Moreover, we would suggest you to take a test ride before making the final decision. Follow the link and select your city and brand accordingly for dealership details.
