    3 years ago


    Aashish

    Drawback points

  • 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.

  • Bajaj Avenger 160

    40 weeks ago


    Santosh Singh

    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.

  • Total love accepting all failures

    1 year ago


    Manoj A

    The buying experience was great. I’ve been driving this vehicle averaging 50 KM every day. The driving comfort is excellent and the handling is smooth and exciting. It gives me a mileage of 50 KM per KM if I fill 5 liters. And if I fill for Rs 500 the mileage will be 45 KM. I have been using this since 2018. Every bike has its drawbacks too. Avengers make a lot of fuss in the morning. And while applying brake one should be careful to use the hind break first else you will fall. The bike gives a missing frequently which could not be rectified. But above all, I love this bike so much

  • Comfortable budget bike but requires improvement in build quality.

    1 year ago


    Bhupender

    Avenger 160 street is a superb bike. It is quite comfortable
    But
    They should have raised the handlebar a little more because you have to lean a little forward while riding.
    The build quality also needs to be improved. Most of the material used is fibre. The look of the bike is awesome. People just stare at you when you pass by.
    Rest is okay.

    Try to ride in a steady mode. More gear shift loosens the chain. It is quite common with almost all bajaj bikes. Abs works quite okay. Still don't run over speed as it has only single abs.

  • 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.

  • Bajaj Avenger 160

    40 weeks ago


    Santosh Singh

    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.

  • Total love accepting all failures

    1 year ago


    Manoj A

    The buying experience was great. I’ve been driving this vehicle averaging 50 KM every day. The driving comfort is excellent and the handling is smooth and exciting. It gives me a mileage of 50 KM per KM if I fill 5 liters. And if I fill for Rs 500 the mileage will be 45 KM. I have been using this since 2018. Every bike has its drawbacks too. Avengers make a lot of fuss in the morning. And while applying brake one should be careful to use the hind break first else you will fall. The bike gives a missing frequently which could not be rectified. But above all, I love this bike so much

  • Comfortable budget bike but requires improvement in build quality.

    1 year ago


    Bhupender

    Avenger 160 street is a superb bike. It is quite comfortable
    But
    They should have raised the handlebar a little more because you have to lean a little forward while riding.
    The build quality also needs to be improved. Most of the material used is fibre. The look of the bike is awesome. People just stare at you when you pass by.
    Rest is okay.

    Try to ride in a steady mode. More gear shift loosens the chain. It is quite common with almost all bajaj bikes. Abs works quite okay. Still don't run over speed as it has only single abs.
