बजाज एवेंजर स्ट्रीट 220 [2015-2020]

Very useful and comfortable Bajaj Avenger. Good mileage and good load capacity for working in business. Number one Bike of other company.
Comfortable ride and smooth driving experience. I've enjoyed riding it the mileage is good for this price point, and the pickup and breaking also felt good. Drive experience is best and safety is good.

समीक्षक के बारे में

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.

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.

समीक्षक के बारे में

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

समीक्षक के बारे में

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.

समीक्षक के बारे में

Worst bike to drive within city, will have horrible back pain, driving since 4 years, almost driven 15000 km. Suggest not to buy at all. I switched from honda shine to this, but it was my wrong decision. Waste of money, better to go to choose some other bike. The reason of back pain is, bikes length.
