Bajaj has unveiled the Avenger Cruise 220 and the Street 220 facelift in India. These 2018 models feature revised styling and dual digital instrument displays along with the customary new paint schemes.
While they are essentially similar under the skin, both the Avenger Cruise 220 and the Street 220 get completely different styling. The Avenger Cruise 220 gets flashy paint schemes and decals, a bunch chrome-embellished components and pullback handlebars to give it the look of a traditional American cruiser. The headlamp gets a new inverted triangular design while the tail lamp gets LED units. The Avenger Street 220 on the other hand, gets the blacked out look of an urban cruiser. It has been updated with a new headlamp design, a short flyscreen and the same redesigned tail lamp. Both motorcycles get dual digital displays, one above the handlebar and one the fuel tank.
The Avenger Cruise 220 is available in white and auburn black, while the Street 220 can specified in matte black and matte white. With this price tag, the Avenger siblings compete against the Suzuki Intruder, although there are other streetfighters like the Suzuki Gixxer, Yamaha FZ-S Version 2.0, Honda CB Hornet and the TVS Apache RTR 200 4V.
