As far as bike performance is concern it good among price range of 1.15lacs...Pro are... Comfortable and lower seat. East to handle/after sale service. Cons- engineering is not as good as expected/gear box is not smooth/weird noise from chain set/ big radius .It could be improved by customized approach like handle could be given as in cruise model.

Comfortable bike

Bipin Mishra
The Bajaj Avenger 160 Street is a fantastic bike for city rides and comfortable cruising. Its stylish design, comfortable seating, and smooth handling make it a great choice for daily commuting as well as longer trips. The mileage is quite decent, and the bike feels stable in different road conditions. However, there are occasional issues with the battery performance, and timely service can sometimes be challenging. Despite this, the overall experience and value for money it provides make it a solid choice for anyone looking for a versatile and comfortable ride.

It's a good looking bike and the performance is also good when it's newly bought but after some time it shows real colour it starts stopping unnecessarily the fuel tank gets water out of nowhere and needs to be replaced every time it often gets switched off when not accelerated continuously, also the back seat is so uncomfortable.

A pseudo cruiser cum commuter bike.
13 weeks ago
Om Prakash Banerjee
I have been using this bike for the past 7 months and covered 3500+ km with this hence I think now it is sufficient time and usage before reviewing the bikeI bought this after testing it for barely 5 minutes, the soft suspension and less noisy exhaust note led me to buy this as I wanted comfort over performance. Overall bike is good for city rides and sometimes long rides. Smaller jerks it can handle but u can't take it to bumpy roads otherwise suspensions will hit (with pillion ride).Pickup is decent up to 60 but after that, it takes time to reach 80+.Smooth cruising is around 70kmph and vibration in the mirror can be seen from 60 itself but on the handlebar, it can be felt around 70+.I'm 5.7 and for me, the sitting posture is not comfortable which I started feeling just after a few days of buying.For a ride of 20+ km or 30+ minutes back hurting and tail bone hurting starts. Seats are not comfortable (less soft seats) more worse for pillion as those seats are extremely small.Seating postures are not comfortable (the angle between the spine and thigh bone is very low for the rider), which makes me slide back and forth to adjust the stress on the backbone. Apart from comfort, everything else is ok. Mileage I'm getting 40 to 45 something.Once tried to take it on hills where it struggled to climb (me with a pillion total of 150kg and no luggage).But I'll appreciate one thing about the bike is that it is running well without any issues till now with little washing cleaning and servicing (at the service center only) Just a few days back the starting motor started malfunctioning which should be replaced under warranty.As the front of the bike is too long which makes it hard to maneuver in city traffic, as well as for standstill traffic it becomes difficult to pass through smaller spaces as it takes more space to turn.Overall I can't say I am very satisfied with the bike as it failed the purpose of comfort for me. Otherwise, performance and mileage are ok for this range of bikes.

Long drive comfort
30 weeks ago
Gebi
It's a good comfort for long drives, much better than Royal Enfield because it's not shaking and overweight, good driving experience for long travel and no back pain for riders, really a good driving experience. Co-riders also get comfort for long driving good mileage and low cost for maintenance. I can travel 4530-kilometer travel for my last ride.

Nice bike
31 weeks ago
Pradeep
I'm writing this after riding 6000 kms.I had Bajaj platina 1000 (2013), which was a nice decent family bik giving about 75-80 kmpl. As I rode 75000 km in it, I thought of changing it. I sold that at a decent price of 25k. I was searching for an alternative with a higher power, similar mileage budget bike. So I visited every showroom and took test drive of Hero Passion, Honda shine, Bajaj CT100, TVS Raider, Yamaha fascino etc. Though I made up my mind to Raider, My wife suggested I not to think about budget and mileage and at least now I have to think about my passion and pleasure. So my interest shifted to higher cc bikes. However, you know, a middle-class, middle-aged guy, earning a limited salary, can not leave the conservative mentality. I wanted a stylish, bigger bike that looked different from conventional bike designs, with more power but decent mileage. Hence I purchased Bajaj -Avenger 160 Street.I purchased the bike with a single down payment in cash. The showroom did not have this bike in stock. They took almost one month. That was the only glitch in the purchase. RTO has not given RC yet even after 3 months of purchase.Design and comfort:Design is different from conventional bikes. It grabs the attention of the crowd. The bike has less ground clearance. Though in twin humps it is problematic, for a person like me with an average height of 5'2'', it is very convenient as leg reach is good. The seat is wider, but a little harder. The back suspension is 5-step adjustable and very good. No bumps or jerks are felt from the rear suspension. However, due to the oblique placement of the front suspension, small bumps and jerks are felt on the hands. But it becomes soft after riding 2-3k km. A wide sporty handlebar is easy to manoeuvre, but for me, it leads to a bad posture for riding. This led to back pain for some time. But after getting adjusted to this posture and doing some stretching exercises, now I don't have back ache. Bajaj should give 2 options. The cruise handle is easy to reach and ride posture will be more comfortable than this. Now we can alter it by ourselves at the cost of about Rs.2500/-Riding and mileage:I ride app.75km daily in a 4 lane highway. In a single stretch, I rode about 180 km also. Every time I test the mileage. Till today I got 49km to 55km per litre at the speed of 60-90 km. Breaking is very good. It stops immediately without any drag/skid even at the speed of 80kmph. Front disc brakes with single channel ABS does this job. Rear drum break is also good. After strick running in for about 2k km, I rode once upto 110 kmph. After 80 km speed a vibration is felt in the handle. Initially, bike vibrates a lot so that you cant see any images in the mirrors. But vibration reduces after every service. Now after 2nd service, handle vibration drastically reduced. However not stopped. Bike feels very comfortable at the speed of 60-80. Road grip is excellent due to wider tyres. Gear shifting is smooth except first gear. We need to move the bike a bit (forward or reverse) to apply 1st gear. Since we can lift at 2nd gear, I usually skip applying 1st gear due to this inconvenience.Pros:design, look, mileage, ride quality, acceleration.Cons:Ride Posture, 1st gear shift, vibration.Overall experience:You will certainly love riding this bike. Mileage is also good for daily commutes. So I will recommend this bike for those who are upgrading from 100-110cc to bigger ones but are short at budget.

Great function and practicality make it a top choice among all, the Bajaj Avenger Street 160 is a total go-to two-wheeler model for absolutely all purposes. My buying experience at a nearby hero showroom was quite pleasing and smooth. The purchase range is also quite offering and is budget friendly in exchange for modern features that function very smoothly, providing hassle-free rides all along your commute. The ground clearance is good. This model comes with good fuel capacity and stunning looks as well.

Avenger Street Bike Review: Cruising with Style (A Rider's Perspective)
40 weeks ago
Nirmal Laxmanbhai Keshvani
1. Buying Experience:Walking into the showroom, the Avenger immediately grabbed my attention. The muscular stance and chrome accents oozed a certain attitude. The staff were helpful, explaining the features and offering a test ride. Finalizing the deal was smooth, and the bike rolled out gleaming under the sunlight.2. Riding Experience:The first thing that struck me was the comfortable riding posture. The wide seat and forward-set footpegs had me cruising in comfort. The engine, while not a powerhouse, provided enough grunt for city commutes and highway cruising. Maneuvering through traffic felt manageable, though the weight might be noticeable for shorter riders.3. Looks, Performance:The Avenger commands attention on the road. The muscular design, blacked-out elements, and chrome touches give it a distinct personality. Performance-wise, it's a cruiser, not a speed demon. It excels in relaxed riding, offering a smooth power delivery at moderate speeds.4. Servicing and Maintenance:Bajaj service centers are widely available, making maintenance hassle-free. The Avenger itself isn't complex to maintain, and parts are readily accessible. Regular servicing ensures a smooth ride and prolongs the bike's life.5. Pros and Cons:Pros:Comfort: Excellent for long rides due to the relaxed riding posture.Style: Stands out from the crowd with its bold design.Mileage: Offers decent fuel economy for a cruiser in its segment.Maintenance: Easy to maintain with readily available parts and service network.Cons:Power: Not ideal for those seeking powerful acceleration or high-speed riding.Weight: The heavier weight might be challenging for shorter riders to maneuver in tight spaces.Features: Lacks some modern features like a fully digital instrument cluster.Overall:The Avenger Street is a cruiser bike built for those who prioritize comfort and style over raw power. It's a perfect companion for relaxed rides, weekend getaways, and cruising around town. While it might not be the choice for adrenaline seekers, it offers a unique riding experience with a touch of old-school charm.

I've owned the Bajaj Avenger for years, and it has consistently delivered a great riding experience. The sleek design, comfortable seating, and powerful engine make it an ideal choice for long rides. Its fuel efficiency has also impressed me. Overall, the Bajaj Avenger has been a reliable and enjoyable companion on the road. In 3-4years the most I had to spend ever on one repair was 4k else my every service costs less than 1k.

Mileage I'm getting 40 to 45 something.Once tried to take it on hills where it struggled to climb (me with a pillion total of 150kg and no luggage).But I'll appreciate one thing about the bike is that it is running well without any issues till now with little washing cleaning and servicing (at the service center only) Just a few days back the starting motor started malfunctioning which should be replaced under warranty.As the front of the bike is too long which makes it hard to maneuver in city traffic, as well as for standstill traffic it becomes difficult to pass through smaller spaces as it takes more space to turn.Overall I can't say I am very satisfied with the bike as it failed the purpose of comfort for me. Otherwise, performance and mileage are ok for this range of bikes.

Long drive comfort
30 weeks ago
Gebi
It's a good comfort for long drives, much better than Royal Enfield because it's not shaking and overweight, good driving experience for long travel and no back pain for riders, really a good driving experience. Co-riders also get comfort for long driving good mileage and low cost for maintenance. I can travel 4530-kilometer travel for my last ride.

Nice bike
31 weeks ago
Pradeep
I'm writing this after riding 6000 kms.I had Bajaj platina 1000 (2013), which was a nice decent family bik giving about 75-80 kmpl. As I rode 75000 km in it, I thought of changing it. I sold that at a decent price of 25k. I was searching for an alternative with a higher power, similar mileage budget bike. So I visited every showroom and took test drive of Hero Passion, Honda shine, Bajaj CT100, TVS Raider, Yamaha fascino etc. Though I made up my mind to Raider, My wife suggested I not to think about budget and mileage and at least now I have to think about my passion and pleasure. So my interest shifted to higher cc bikes. However, you know, a middle-class, middle-aged guy, earning a limited salary, can not leave the conservative mentality. I wanted a stylish, bigger bike that looked different from conventional bike designs, with more power but decent mileage. Hence I purchased Bajaj -Avenger 160 Street.I purchased the bike with a single down payment in cash. The showroom did not have this bike in stock. They took almost one month. That was the only glitch in the purchase. RTO has not given RC yet even after 3 months of purchase.Design and comfort:Design is different from conventional bikes. It grabs the attention of the crowd. The bike has less ground clearance. Though in twin humps it is problematic, for a person like me with an average height of 5'2'', it is very convenient as leg reach is good. The seat is wider, but a little harder. The back suspension is 5-step adjustable and very good. No bumps or jerks are felt from the rear suspension. However, due to the oblique placement of the front suspension, small bumps and jerks are felt on the hands. But it becomes soft after riding 2-3k km. A wide sporty handlebar is easy to manoeuvre, but for me, it leads to a bad posture for riding. This led to back pain for some time. But after getting adjusted to this posture and doing some stretching exercises, now I don't have back ache. Bajaj should give 2 options. The cruise handle is easy to reach and ride posture will be more comfortable than this. Now we can alter it by ourselves at the cost of about Rs.2500/-Riding and mileage:I ride app.75km daily in a 4 lane highway. In a single stretch, I rode about 180 km also. Every time I test the mileage. Till today I got 49km to 55km per litre at the speed of 60-90 km. Breaking is very good. It stops immediately without any drag/skid even at the speed of 80kmph. Front disc brakes with single channel ABS does this job. Rear drum break is also good. After strick running in for about 2k km, I rode once upto 110 kmph. After 80 km speed a vibration is felt in the handle. Initially, bike vibrates a lot so that you cant see any images in the mirrors. But vibration reduces after every service. Now after 2nd service, handle vibration drastically reduced. However not stopped. Bike feels very comfortable at the speed of 60-80. Road grip is excellent due to wider tyres. Gear shifting is smooth except first gear. We need to move the bike a bit (forward or reverse) to apply 1st gear. Since we can lift at 2nd gear, I usually skip applying 1st gear due to this inconvenience.Pros:design, look, mileage, ride quality, acceleration.Cons:Ride Posture, 1st gear shift, vibration.Overall experience:You will certainly love riding this bike. Mileage is also good for daily commutes. So I will recommend this bike for those who are upgrading from 100-110cc to bigger ones but are short at budget.

Great function and practicality make it a top choice among all, the Bajaj Avenger Street 160 is a total go-to two-wheeler model for absolutely all purposes. My buying experience at a nearby hero showroom was quite pleasing and smooth. The purchase range is also quite offering and is budget friendly in exchange for modern features that function very smoothly, providing hassle-free rides all along your commute. The ground clearance is good. This model comes with good fuel capacity and stunning looks as well.

Avenger Street Bike Review: Cruising with Style (A Rider's Perspective)
40 weeks ago
Nirmal Laxmanbhai Keshvani
1. Buying Experience:Walking into the showroom, the Avenger immediately grabbed my attention. The muscular stance and chrome accents oozed a certain attitude. The staff were helpful, explaining the features and offering a test ride. Finalizing the deal was smooth, and the bike rolled out gleaming under the sunlight.2. Riding Experience:The first thing that struck me was the comfortable riding posture. The wide seat and forward-set footpegs had me cruising in comfort. The engine, while not a powerhouse, provided enough grunt for city commutes and highway cruising. Maneuvering through traffic felt manageable, though the weight might be noticeable for shorter riders.3. Looks, Performance:The Avenger commands attention on the road. The muscular design, blacked-out elements, and chrome touches give it a distinct personality. Performance-wise, it's a cruiser, not a speed demon. It excels in relaxed riding, offering a smooth power delivery at moderate speeds.4. Servicing and Maintenance:Bajaj service centers are widely available, making maintenance hassle-free. The Avenger itself isn't complex to maintain, and parts are readily accessible. Regular servicing ensures a smooth ride and prolongs the bike's life.5. Pros and Cons:Pros:Comfort: Excellent for long rides due to the relaxed riding posture.Style: Stands out from the crowd with its bold design.Mileage: Offers decent fuel economy for a cruiser in its segment.Maintenance: Easy to maintain with readily available parts and service network.Cons:Power: Not ideal for those seeking powerful acceleration or high-speed riding.Weight: The heavier weight might be challenging for shorter riders to maneuver in tight spaces.Features: Lacks some modern features like a fully digital instrument cluster.Overall:The Avenger Street is a cruiser bike built for those who prioritize comfort and style over raw power. It's a perfect companion for relaxed rides, weekend getaways, and cruising around town. While it might not be the choice for adrenaline seekers, it offers a unique riding experience with a touch of old-school charm.

Bajaj Avenger 169 street review
42 weeks ago
Bikesh Singh
I've owned the Bajaj Avenger for years, and it has consistently delivered a great riding experience. The sleek design, comfortable seating, and powerful engine make it an ideal choice for long rides. Its fuel efficiency has also impressed me. Overall, the Bajaj Avenger has been a reliable and enjoyable companion on the road. In 3-4years the most I had to spend ever on one repair was 4k else my every service costs less than 1k.

Bipin Mishra
The Bajaj Avenger 160 Street is a fantastic bike for city rides and comfortable cruising. Its stylish design, comfortable seating, and smooth handling make it a great choice for daily commuting as well as longer trips. The mileage is quite decent, and the bike feels stable in different road conditions. However, there are occasional issues with the battery performance, and timely service can sometimes be challenging. Despite this, the overall experience and value for money it provides make it a solid choice for anyone looking for a versatile and comfortable ride.

It's a good looking bike and the performance is also good when it's newly bought but after some time it shows real colour it starts stopping unnecessarily the fuel tank gets water out of nowhere and needs to be replaced every time it often gets switched off when not accelerated continuously, also the back seat is so uncomfortable.

A pseudo cruiser cum commuter bike.
13 weeks ago
Om Prakash Banerjee
I have been using this bike for the past 7 months and covered 3500+ km with this hence I think now it is sufficient time and usage before reviewing the bikeI bought this after testing it for barely 5 minutes, the soft suspension and less noisy exhaust note led me to buy this as I wanted comfort over performance. Overall bike is good for city rides and sometimes long rides. Smaller jerks it can handle but u can't take it to bumpy roads otherwise suspensions will hit (with pillion ride).Pickup is decent up to 60 but after that, it takes time to reach 80+.Smooth cruising is around 70kmph and vibration in the mirror can be seen from 60 itself but on the handlebar, it can be felt around 70+.I'm 5.7 and for me, the sitting posture is not comfortable which I started feeling just after a few days of buying.For a ride of 20+ km or 30+ minutes back hurting and tail bone hurting starts. Seats are not comfortable (less soft seats) more worse for pillion as those seats are extremely small.Seating postures are not comfortable (the angle between the spine and thigh bone is very low for the rider), which makes me slide back and forth to adjust the stress on the backbone. Apart from comfort, everything else is ok. Mileage I'm getting 40 to 45 something.Once tried to take it on hills where it struggled to climb (me with a pillion total of 150kg and no luggage).But I'll appreciate one thing about the bike is that it is running well without any issues till now with little washing cleaning and servicing (at the service center only) Just a few days back the starting motor started malfunctioning which should be replaced under warranty.As the front of the bike is too long which makes it hard to maneuver in city traffic, as well as for standstill traffic it becomes difficult to pass through smaller spaces as it takes more space to turn.Overall I can't say I am very satisfied with the bike as it failed the purpose of comfort for me. Otherwise, performance and mileage are ok for this range of bikes.
