Honda CB Unicorn 160 Speed User Reviews

The bike is comfortable enough for City rides & Daily Commutes. I have also gone to the long rides up to 450 KM in a day. But still, this is one of the most pathetic bikes that I have ever driven. I am not really satisfied with this model of Honda Unicorn, cause other than the seating comfort this bike has no other positive attributes. It only has a bunch of drawbacks. If I make a list of drawbacks that I have experienced, it will literally never end. Just trying to shortlist a few of them which will give you a clear idea about the negative points of this bike.1. The headlamp of the vehicle is not powerful enough for night driving on highways.2. The default battery is not capable to handle the additional lights.3. The bike is not sturdy and it has a body vibration when you ride it above 70-80 KMPH speed on highways.4. Disc brake's life is as short as just 12-13 K Kilometers. Had to change it at 12,500 KMs and again at 25,000 KMs.5. Spare parts are very costly.6. In less than 2 years (19,000 Kilometers) the engine has started making horrible Tappet Noice which is not being resolved.7. In recent days I have taken the mileage worth 45 but soon after 20,000 Kilometers the bike's average has fallen below 35 and it's not even generating enough power in stiff roads like ghat sections.Note:I have always made the bike service at the Authorised Dealers.I don't recommend this bike if you love to go on long rides.

Pros: the bike is good for long rides.You wont get any lower back pain.Engine can withstand long rides comfortably.I am owning unicorn 160 cbs for 4 years.The braking is excellent as it is combi brake.We can easily filter in traffic.Engine is amazing, It is eager to rev.Honda 's reliability is great.In highway i get 46kmpl and in city i get 44kmpl.My average riding speed is 80kmph - 100kmph in highways cons: headlight and horn are pathetic.Definitely need an after market modification.Engine k**l switch not present is a big con.One major disadvantage of this bike is the stability is zero if the road is windy.Even if a truck cross over you the bike will wobble.Sometimes while moving in 70 - 90 kmph in highways due to wind my bike moves from first lane to third lane.

I switched from passion to unicorn, And the change in pick up that i felt was amazing.I mostly use my bike to travel within the city.Considering the traffic conditions in mumbai, The bike still goes up to 90kmph, And stops safely(not speeding much in the monsoons) quite satisfied with the build.We can get a couple of more features now like the digital speedometer.It's a solid build, And will last longer with proper maintenance.Mileage can be a better.I get on an average a 35-40 on highways and 30-35 in city.If you understand your requirement and travel goal, Honda unicorn is the perfect city bike which is a mix of style Comfort and performance.

I have old unicorn dazzler 150 cc bike for 4 years almost driven about a lakh KM then am looking to buy new vehicle in Honda is my only choice because of it's quite engine performance but Honda give this unicorn 160 cc as a faulty Engine or else very noisy engine on my view . even they have service the engine but the is not satisfied for me .if I go about 80kmpl it's ok if I cross above 80 km speed the engine get noisy . even my old Dazzler still remain soft while I go above 80. so I don't trust the 160 cc bike in Honda .now I buy again 150 cc unicorn after 2 years .

Daily running of around 250 km, 52 km to 50 km average of above 75 speed.Very comfortable and if you run bike speed is 60 to 55 km the average get you around 58 above, I give 5 star.

It is good and smooth even after 5 years of use.The top speed has reduced as the bike has already run for nearly 55000 kms.Still getting around 45km of mileage.

Great for short rides-mid rides(200+ kms). City ride is super, with 160 cc it have great acceleration but don't expect top speed (maximum 85-95 km/h).
