Bajaj Avenger Cruise 220 price in Badlapur

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.

I had an avenger 180cc 2006 model. Last year I bought avenger 220 cruises because 180 had a good run. 220 cruise bike is still an old technology bike with single-channel abs.
I'm a 6ft guy and my daily commute is 45-50 km and my occasional rides like 200-300km long.
This bike chain sprocket is replaced within 10 months at 3200rs cost at bajaj service center. The service center is also expensive. Free service was also costing around 2000rs. The break pads changed twice. Too much engine vibration. You can literally feel your leg shaking. After 1 year above 80km the bike becomes a vibrator. Suspension is not that great. Also, it's a tubed tyre so if it is punctured by a nail and dragged for a while you will have to change the tube. That’s expensive as hell. 400-500rs for tube and outer tyre patchwork. The fuel indicator is so bad it displays low when you still have 5-6 ltr of petrol.
Bajaj, I think it's time to upgrade the technology or close this bike production.
I regret that I bought it.

About the Reviewer

One of the most budget-friendly cruise segment bike in all bikes in this segment. The best bike which can be affordable for the common man and youngsters. Classic great looks, colour, handling and average, best for daily purposes and also very comfortable for long routes.
It can be driven by every age group and the height of a person doesn't matter on this bike, a person with a less height can also drive it very comfortably and safely as compared to other bikes. And one of the best of them is a bajaj product, one of the best Indian companies in the two-wheeler segment with no tension of service and parts if we are having bajaj bikes. Avenger is my dream bike I love it most and I will like to have it.
My favorite long-distance bike forever.
