Bajaj Avenger Street 160
The Bajaj Avenger Street 160 is an entry-level cruiser motorcycle aimed at riders looking for relaxed ergonomics and distinctive cruiser styling at an affordable price. It immediately stands out for its comfortable low-seat riding posture and easy rideability, while also offering good fuel efficiency and simple, commuter-friendly mechanics that enhance everyday usability. The overall package feels accessible and lifestyle-focused for city riders. That said, its performance is modest and better suited for relaxed riding rather than quick acceleration. Overall, the Avenger Street 160 makes the most sense for buyers who want an affordable cruiser primarily for comfortable city commutes.
Bajaj Avenger Street 160 Latest Update
Last Updated on 13th Nov'24: The Avenger Street 160 replaced its 180cc sibling back in 2019, and has largely been unchanged since then. The 160cc mill is shared with the Pulsar NS 160, and it also comes equipped with single-channel ABS. However, it is due for a major upgrade.
The Bajaj Avenger Street 160 offers a stylish and comfortable cruiser motorcycle ride. While there haven't been any recent updates on this model, Bajaj is set to launch the 2024 edition of the Pulsar F250 in the coming months. The new version will feature an updated instrument panel, enhanced features, and other improvements while keeping the familiar engine.

Bajaj Avenger Street 160 Detailed Review
The Bajaj Avenger was designed to be a cruiser bike from the beginning. Customers who seek a cruiser bike with a powerful and fuel-efficient engine were catered to by the low-slung design. However, the compact shape of the Avenger Street 160 offers more convenience of riding in cities as well as improved fuel efficiency. It has many wonderful qualities, including a contemporary street style appearance. It has a stylish headlamp and LED DRLs, which shine brighter and light up 0.2 seconds quicker than incandescent lights. It also has a low, long seat that gives it the impression of a star. It has extended handlebars for street control. Additionally, it has alloy wheels. Alloy wheels are less demanding on the engine because they weigh less than spoked wheels. They require less energy to move because they are light, which enhances the performance of the engine.
Summary
It's a cruiser bike with a stunning design and appearance. It features a good finish and a long seat for additional comfort, but the look is comparable to the previous model. In addition, the build quality isn't great. It does not come with a windscreen.

The Bajaj Avenger Street 160 engine was created with city riding in mind. The 160cc engine has enough power and torque to allow for comfortable riding both inside the city and outside. Unexpectedly, this engine is also fairly fuel-efficient. This motorcycle is propelled by a 4-stroke engine, which is cleaner and more effective. In addition, 4-stroke engines feature an efficient lubrication system that enables them to operate very cleanly and at low power. It sports a 160cc engine and a fuel injection system with controlled FI. It produces higher power while using less fuel. It enhances throttle responsiveness and increases engine longevity. It benefits the environment as well. It is a fearsome street bike with a maximum power output of 14.7 bhp at 7500 rpm and a maximum torque production of 13.7Nm at 5500 rpm.
It is powered by an air-cooled engine with a simple design and is lightweight. It requires less attention and upkeep. Because it does not have cylinder jackets or radiator water tubes, it also works in harsh environments when there is even a scarcity of water. This is also why there is no chance of frost damage. It features a twin-spark, which means it has a higher performance as well as good fuel efficiency because the combustion is at an optimal level. Also, in this type of engine, the problem of engine locking, backfire and vibration is resolved. They are a good option in extreme weather.
Summary
It has a tuned engine that is environmentally friendly, which is one of the most significant features nowadays. Additionally, the fuel efficiency is excellent. It also has a twin spark, four-stroke, air-cooled, two-valve engine, demonstrating that the bike's engine is extremely powerful and capable of working in difficult conditions.

A 280 mm front disc brake and a 130 mm rear drum brake are responsible for stopping the vehicle. Less heat is needed to break the torque because disc brakes offer more stopping power with less effort. They cool down rapidly and are easy to maintain. In dangerous situations, they are also more secure. Drum brakes are simpler to make and last longer than disc brakes. Additionally, they have affordable maintenance costs. Comparing the Avenger Street 160 to the larger Avenger 220, the Avenger Street 160 has smaller tyres. However, the brakes are faultless and let the rider feel more confident while moving.
The size of the front tyre is 90/90-17 49P, and the size of the rear tyre is 130/90-15 66P. This bike has tubeless tyres on the front and back. For turning performance and stability at high speeds, it has a large rear tyre. Furthermore, it improves grip and offers comfort over long distances. Due to its alignment in a straight line with the front tyre, the rear tyre aids in the bike's smooth handling and increased stability.
Let's take a look at the bike's comfort level now. It has curved seats made of premium material that gives comfort for both the rider and the pillion passengers. It also has a low and long seat, which contributes to the bike's overall comfort. It also includes telescopic front suspension, which improves ride comfort and stability at greater speeds. It's also simple to maintain and soft-driven. It also boasts a 5-step adjustable twin shock absorber that eliminates wheel bouncing on uneven surfaces and absorbs minor road bumps for a comfortable ride.
Summary
It boasts both disc and drum brakes, as well as an excellent suspension for a safe and enjoyable ride. It provides a smooth ride for both the rider and the pillion passenger. More stability is provided by the wide back tyre.
