User Review of Avenger Street 220 [2015-2020] by Sunny Maity

It's a very comfortable ride, the styling is like a Harley Davidson with a massive tank and long body for a comfortable ride, I love this bike - we've ridden it comfortably many times with 2 kids and 2 adults. It's low maintenance, nothing ever breaks, no kick-starts, so it's worth looking after if you use it occasionally.

About the Reviewer

1. Buying experience
i bought my bike on 12-apr-18, when I was in noida. Before buying the bike, I had watched multiple youtube videos about cruiser bikes and my love for traveling on a motorcycle. After all my research was done, I boiled it down to avenger. Called the bajaj showroom for enquiring about the bike and they said the bike is available and there is no waiting time involved. So, I packed my bag, printed all the relevant documents and visited the showroom on 12-apr-18. The salesperson in the showroom was very helpful throughout the process and explained all the technical specifications of the bike in detail. He was very patient as this was my first bike and I had lots of questions to which he took his time and answered all of them.
Within 3-4 hours all the paperwork was done and I even got a inr 5000 discount on the bike.
At 5pm in the evening, the key was handed over to me and I was now the owner of a brand new bajaj avenger 220 street.
2. Riding experience
avenger being a cruiser bike gives a very relaxing stance during the rides, be it a city ride or a highway ride. The 220 cc engine gives enough power to maintain cruising speeds of 80-90 kmph on Indian highways and can take the top speed of 125 kmph (this is the top speed that I have taken the bike, however, it may differ for other riders). You will feel little vibrations in the side view mirrors when you reach a speed above 100kmph but that's fine given the amount of power the bike generates. The bike being heavy is very stable during the rides.
3. Details
looks - 8/10 - the front headlight part could have been made stylish
performance - 9/10 - never had a bike break down in the middle of the highway, no major issues felt, but
felt little vibrations in the mirror when going beyond 100 kmph.
4. Servicing and maintenance
bajaj offers very satisfactory and genuine bike servicing. This is what I have observed over time, be it in Noida or Bangalore. Before servicing, whatever issues that I tell are resolved after the bike is handed over to me after the servicing is done. I have never crossed more than inr 5k in servicing to date. This excludes the extra parts and accessories which I have purchased from the service center. Bajaj being the market leader in 2-wheelers, original spare parts are easily available throughout the market.
5. Pros and cons
pros - engine packs a good amount of power
- built quality
- tyres
- exhaust sound
- riding posture (best for short heighted people below 5'7")
cons - brakes - my bike doesn't have abs
- riding posture (I'm 5'9", so when riding the bike tail bone pains and for longer rides, it becomes a
the problem, so I'd suggest using cushions
- headlights.

About the Reviewer

I owned this bike in Sept/2016. Totally dome 46000km. Doing great since bought it. Less maintenance cost. Only problem chain. Needs to adjust very frequently. But the chain problem I think arises due to quick acceleration. Too smooth to ride. I'm feeling the same pickup and comfort. Good bike. Breaking is too effective.

About the Reviewer

I own avenger 220 for the past 7 years. It's a pleasure to ride it and gives a great feeling on long rides. Power, breaking all is great. It looks royal and feels royal. Also, the backrest for the pillion rider gives very good comfort for long rides.
The only possible issues I found were:
1. Turning radius is a bit high (but that comes with the cruise look)
2. If you keep it unused for a long, the battery can get discharged and due to no kick start you have to get the battery charged.

About the Reviewer

Such a lovely ride and feel like a god it looks like a very different bike from other bikes, balancing is too good and I wanna change some modifications in our bike to look like a beast if you ride then you believe this bike compared to another bike this is awesome and soo looking for a bike as a rider.

About the Reviewer

Not suitable for daily use, that to in a city like Bangalore. High maintenance
Get back pain while driving in heavy traffic.
No kick start options, if there is a problem with self motor or battery, can't do anything.
Mechanic find it difficult to repair small problem, especially wiring problem.
Problem with chain sprocket

About the Reviewer

The main drawback is this bike doesn't have a kick start function, so if the battery is down you are gone. The balance is not good if you do a sudden break bike will be uncontrolled due to its length. If you riding at 40-50kmph then it's good. I won't recommend this after having my 4 years of experience with it.

About the Reviewer

Excellent bike with amazing riding position. Even I ride continuously for 350 km. The engine is very smooth. When I ride at 80 km speed, I enjoy the ride of this bike. The feel is like good. It's tag is perfect for a suitable bike. I think no other bike gives seating position and comfort like this. I rode 1200 km in one day, but no back pain. Awesome bike.

About the Reviewer

1. From jammu motors I bought this bike in moon white matte finish street variant. I took the test ride of avenger 220 cruise but decided to buy 220 street coz of tubeless tyres.
2. Good riding experience you remember you should choose that bike which you feel is comfortable not others user experience don't matter.
3. Look wise its elegant but make sure you wash it properly and clean.
4. Service cost is very much affordable. One breather pipe problem is there and indicators which are prone to get damaged. you should take care of that. Overall best bike ever.
