User Review of CB Unicorn 160 by Sujesh.Kj

Very bad experience with unicorn BS6, it breakdown any anywhere at any time, frequently Maintenance come. In one year of completion, it gives more problems, The Battery went faulty in one year and has no warranty, the service centre didn't support it and they required 24 hrs to solve even if it takes 5 min resolution, I didn't recommend.

About the Reviewer

For any bike its engine is the core part, so here only Honda is lacking. This bike's engine cannot sustain a long time ride if the tachometer reading goes high. My bike's engine got repaired twice, first when it clocked 20k km and now again it's in repair after 31k km rides which actually shouldn't happen. Now it's undergoing a complete engine overhaul. Its crank and piston are not good I must say. Vibration sound happens which ultimately leads to engine damage.

About the Reviewer

Excellent bike. It's been 6 years and ran 73000 kilometers proudly. The riding experience is tremendous. Look like a sport bike and can go anywhere in the state. Need to do proper service once in 3 to 6 months. The bike suspension is smooth. Can get spare parts in the local garage also. Just ride and feel the nice riding experience.

About the Reviewer

The bike is a refined engine quite good while riding it is comfortable and very smooth. Performance is pretty good, & I have tested the exact speed on the highway within 17 sec, have touched 110/km last speed is 122, and one more thing the milege in the city gets 48/km. At highway 56km...My suggestion is please change the oil every 1000km.

About the Reviewer

The buying experience is not good: the waiting period is 30 days after booking.
Riding experience: good for first 3 months, after 3rd service feel bad and hate bike to drive (poor service).
Details look / performance looks not really good just ok.
While driving up to 60km good after that getting little vibrations under the engine & footrest 2 times footrest bolt fell off.
Service & Maintenance: services are worst ever seen. Try outside service, after free service or do it yourself.
Pros & cons: don't buy, try Indian brands like Hero, Bajaj, Royal Enfield, TVS, & etc.
Honda only concentrates on sales in the Indian market - not interested in service after sales.
My previous bike passion pro-2018 model disc - was a very good bike good service at all times and low maintenance.
Now feeling much, because I was exchanged for a unicorn. I really miss my passion pro.

2. Riding experience not good not comfortable
3.Looks are not a 160cc bike like 125cc, performance is good.
4. Not good maintenance is very bad.
5. First thing the mileage is very low, good to think about pickup it's first.

About the Reviewer

Very bad bike bs6 2021 model, a duplicate chain, the worst rpm meter and fuel indicator, duplicate battery. Honda showrooms also not providing proper service, why honda releasing such poor quality bikes? honda has value but now degrading its quality, and service from the company. Don’t release such a pathetic bike. I felt very bad for buying bs6 honda unicorn bike.
I don't recommend it to anyone.

About the Reviewer

I have a unicorn bs6 160 model purchased in march 2021.
Problems that I am facing with bs6 unicorn 160
I have completed almost 15000kms in my unicorn bs6 160 2021 model after 2nd service my bike started to give problems.
1. From day one of purchase I face starting problem, once started ( like an automatic choke) engine will raise noise and automatically gets heat then only engine noise will reduce it will take 1 minute to
Heat up, this happens every time after 1-hour break if I start again
I need to wait for 1 minute to heat and especially in winter it will take more than 2 minutes, for 25 minutes break. In the service center, they say it is bs 6 model so it will be like this only.
2. For every 2500 kms it gives a problem in brake shoe. Either front or back anyone break will give problems.
3. There is a gear shifting problem after 3rd service. Before that gear shifted softly now it is hard to bring from 2nd to 1st gear or many times it goes neutral.
4. Bike wobble problem was there from starting but not all the time, if I start the vehicle 10 times a day 5 times I face this jerk issue for nearly10 seconds. In the service center, they say this is bs6 model it will be there.
5. Issue with a kicker (the daily morning I use kicker) which feels uncomfortable, many times not starting in the first kick need to kick a few times.
6. Very very poor headlight illumination after finishing free service we need to change to led for better illumination. In the service center, they request to change to led.
The only one best part is engine smoothness, no noise even after 14000 kms.
