About the Reviewer

I bought this bike 5 years ago when I started earning. at that time it was a turner, I did daily commutes to the office and long trips on weekends. The riding posture of the bike is definitely great for the rider but the pillion may face some pain. I can take this bike anywhere without thinking twice. Now there are many memories I have with this machine. Me and my friend named it "BLACK PEARL". Apart from its front suspension and service center issue the bike is a must-have. I also met 2-3 minor accidents while riding but this is the machine you can trust while going for a ride again.

About the Reviewer

I have been riding a CB Hornet 160R since Mar'17 and haven't faced any issues yet. Had a trip from Noida to Jaipur once and it was not at all tiring. The bike was smooth and achieved its maximum speed of 115 on an empty stretch of highway around 5 AM. Even the high-speed bike was controllable and even today it touches 110 easily without much effort.
I loved its looks a lot as it has a very sporty look and Honda's trustworthy engine. After riding it for 25000, I changed its spark plug once as the mileage got dropped from 55 kmpl to 34 kmpl. But as soon as I replaced the spark plug with Honda Genuine spark plug, the mileage got increased to 57 kmpl as well. I use Motul's fully synthetic engine oil as it increases the mileage as compared to the Engine oil given by Honda service centers. I get this mileage also because I ride it at a speed of 50-55 km/hr only. And I don't perform harsh braking or harsh acceleration.
Pros:
1. Sporty Look
2. Powerful 160 CC trustworthy engine.
3. Handling is easy and not shaky at all.
Cons:
1. Vibrations may increase after some time and you can get rid of it if you get it serviced properly.
Tip: To get the best mileage out of it, ride it between 50-60 kmph and get it serviced on a regular basis along with Motul Engine oil and a cleaned spark plug.

About the Reviewer

The bike is good for touring purposes and for daily use. For Guys who like to travel at normal speeds around 90kmph, and filter traffic on a daily basis this bike is for them. And it's smooth, I have completed around 70,000 km till now, and it still gives mileage of 50kmpl. A few years ago companies didn't sell RSA because they knew that such bikes won't betray in between rides.

About the Reviewer

The buying experience was okay
The riding experience, with regards to ride, has been on the stiffer side with average damping from shocks. Handling is neutral-sticks to the line selected.
The engine is phenomenal with regards to fuel efficiency if ridden between 40-55 kmph, returning 60 kmpl, which is its USP. Looks good and is okay with regards to acceleration, service, and maintenance is a typical Honda with very low operating costs. It's a decent commuter bike that can be taken on the highway for short distances.

About the Reviewer

I am a proud owner of this champ from 2016, I was really excited to buy this bike. It was a stylish and yet practical bike. When I bought this bike in 2016 its design was pretty new, people stopped me many times and asked me about the bike. I have travelled 78000 km on this bike till now and m very happy with its performance and mileage. I am getting 50 to 55 kmpl mileage, I have taken this bike to the high mountains of Arunachal Pradesh 3 times from muddy roads to black ice I have ridden this bike everywhere.

About the Reviewer

At this cost, it's too smooth to ride
Looks like a sports bike but it's actually more satisfying than a sports bike. The size of this bike looks like a mountain bike and the seat is big as well more than 2 people ride at the same time.
I love this one!
I rate this 5 stars not for only my satisfaction I suggest you all buy a bike and get ownership
And Bikewale is a great way to a great bike with a great offer!
