      As per the subject matter, the front alloy wheel has been broken while driving on a small dig present on the road. Very bad quality of alloy wheel in Unicorn is observed . We purchased 2 Honda bikes 4 months back , we are very disappointed with the quality of alloy wheel in Honda bike.

      Superbike for me. I am a college student and this bike is best for me. Maintenance cost is very low, hence it is under budget.

      Nice experience for this bike. I want to change the bike with Pulsar N160 Dual Channel ABS. I think this Pulsar N160 gives me best comfort for riding position and great performance with perfect BS6 engine. I think Bajaj has reduced the vibration from the bike so bike sound will also become good.
