Aprilia SXR 160 Price in Ilkal

I bought this bike from EESH Motors Mangalore and the experience was great we did'nt have to wait much and also asked me to try the SR too. In terms of riding experience it's really nice where I live, as it's tarmac every where. If there is an occasional pothole it does take it well. I had many instances where I had to break hard and it did that with ease. I took this to the hills and also cornering was easy. You feel lazy in traffic, I have a Honda Dio which I feel I get cheaky with and just make it out of traffic really quick. With this I don't even feel like doing any of those. Looks are a head turner alway and I am really waiting for the GT200 and from my showroom visits I know alot of other customers are waiting too. We have an access 125, Dio both 2013 models at home my wife also loves riding especially how reassuring this is. I dint think she would like this at all. But some where I feel this should be a 200cc engine with liquid cooling as this where all the cons start. This bike does 100 kmph + on the odo but I don't think it's comfortable there its happy at 75 -80 for longer journeys . I had a phase when I rode between 4000 to 5000 rpm I got 45 - 50 kmph. The instrumentation is amazing nothing is missed out. Servicing is on the higher side and it is expected like the vespas of the world. I had a day when I covered 360 kms on a hot sunny day it dint heat up too much. The biggest pro is desirability, performance being a scooter. It's good with mileage if you are careful enough yet this is great for those trips to places close to your town or city. But once you ride this you will not feel like riding any other scooter that you have at home. Biggest biggest con is the boot becomes quite hot you can't keep electronics like camera etc in there. Also if you bring take aways home they remain very hot 🔥. But it's a bummer 😕 to be honest. Is why a 200 cc with liquid cooling GT 200 from Aprilia if launches will go for it.

Good, but service centre not doing well, every vehicle required correct lubricant accordingly, this service centre people not maintaining a proper stock of certified lubricant, after every service, I go nearby mechanic and replace the engine oil gulf 20w40 which is mentioned in manual book, after that my Aprilia rocks, I request Aprilia company to check this errors in all service centre, and maintain fine lubricant mentioned accordingly, my vehicle gives me mileage of 40km, I am happy...

Now almost 1 year is completed and I ride above 20k km. I am using it for my daily work. The riding experience was super. Given mileage of 50.5 kmpl. Servicing cost is slightly higher. But performance-wise super. The riding experience on the highway was excellent. But required to rear tyre change after 18500 km. Another bike will shake.
