Bajaj Avenger Cruise 220

I have been riding bikes for the last 13 years and I can only compare my experience of biking. Previously I had 2 cruising bikes (Meteor and xpulse) but Avenger is the most comfortable bike with very low maintenance cost and performance. last month I went to Ladakh with this bike and trust me I had the best experience with this. I love this bike thanks, Bajaj. Best_Among_All.

Petrol overflow was not mentioned, and servicing charges were too much. The break light not working since the day I purchased the bike. The service center never checked and also didn't inform me. Will never recommend it to my friends and relatives.

About the Reviewer

This bike is essentially 100-125cc disguised as a 200cc. Above 60kmph it starts vibrating and that is painful if you're riding for a long time. The vibrations travel to the tailbone and result in highly sharp pain. Even after the suspension is set to the highest level the oscillations damp down but the overall result stays the same. Engine heats up like anything in traffic or even on a hot day highway ride. Servicing spares are somewhat cheap compared to re but still unexpected unresolved issues crop up. The fuel indicator shows it's on reserve but there are still 7 liters of petrol in the tank. I rode the Platina and it felt smoother in gear shifts and better performance-wise than this. Yes, you can overtake someone even when at 80kmph but the fact is due to vibrations you won't actually ride at 80kmph for longer than a few minutes.

1. Riding experience - it's a good bike to cruise on the highways. But for the daily commute, it's very difficult to handle and maintenance also increases.
2. Look wise it is very good and the performance of the bike could be better, again it is very difficult to shift gears within the city traffic but for highways it's fine. I had to bore the engine after 52000 kms and when asked in the showroom they said this is common in all the bajaj bikes. But I was not able to understand even after so good maintenance and all periodic services done on time, the engine boring to be done.
3. Riding experience- I have had this bike since Apr 2017 and I have completed 84000 kms. I have hit upto 135kms/hour in this bike and still it can be controlled when you are so used to it, but braking could be better, we need to struggle a bit by shifting the gears along with the brakes to control the bike when needed to stop it.
4. Maintenance- the spares for this bike is a little costly when compared to the other bikes in the same range, yes that is because they have used only heavy materials for this bike when compared with pulsar. If used more within the city then the maintenance will increase more.
5. Personal opinion - if you have a spare bike to commute to the city then you can go for this, else all your days will be very tough. This is a very good bike for cruising on highways. I have achieved 1680kms in a day riding it for about 18 hours continuously. You need to spend at least 3k to maintain this bike every 2-2.5 months. I didn't face any big problems with this bike since I didn't care about spending it. I used it mostly for highways and occasionally within the city.
