Bajaj Avenger Cruise 220 price in Alibag

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.

About the Reviewer

Overall good package and probably the best yields on the term “value for money”. I have used it in the city and also used it as a single - one way 1300 km long ride; in plain as well as hilly areas; in traffic and on highway roads; always proved to be quite comfortable and reliable ( because maintained well). My love for this bike is always incriminating with each additional experience with it.

About the Reviewer

I am using the bajaj avenger 220 cruises for the past 4 years and have more than 30,000+ running km
The overall experience is amazing and if anyone asks for a recommendation, it's a good-to-go bike, whether it's daily use or long rides.
I am using it daily for commuting within Pune city & that too during peak traffic hours (the daily commute is around 60kms) it's very comfortable to use and overall mileage is around 35-40 km on an average
The maintenance cost is around 2500-3000 per servicing (all done to date at the bajaj service center only)
Had done a couple of long rides of more than 1000+ km in a go and it is perfect for long rides for sure, very comfortable, has good mileage on highways, and very stable bike for highway runs.
The only issue I face is the rear braking system, as the abs are only for the front tire (don't know if now days they have for both ), the rear tyre breaking system is not up to the mark, and within 15 of servicing goes back to the same and you most of the times have to be dependent on both the breaks.
But overall experience is amazing and I am totally satisfied with the product.
