After so much research work on the 160cc segment, i have selected this bike and my selection never regrets me till now.I have got this bike in spicy red (bs-vi) color with 1,23,500/- on-road price in kolkata. The total process of buying was smooth enough. I'm writing this review after one and a half months of riding experience (1560 km).Pros. Of this bike-1. The riding of this bike is very comfortable for a daily commute as well as a long ride and its complete fun. 2. The bike is a well balanced, stable, and awesome suspension. 3. This bike is absolutely suitable for daily commute as well as occasional long ride. 4. I'm getting mileage around 48kmpl-50kmpl after 1st service. 5. Though i was thinking that i can't drive it above 100 kmph but i was wrong, this bike can catch the speed of 120kmph very easily.6. The seating posture of this bike also very good.Cons.1. Gear position shifting problem(sometimes)2. Drum brake on the rear wheel which gives a disturbing sound during breaking,3. Visible metal joints on the chassis blow fuel tank. So, if you are a cruise bike lover and you want to buy a cruiser bike in budget then you definitely go for it.

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.
