Trending Questions on Bajaj Pulsar N160 - Answered by Autocar Experts
I currently own a Hero Hunk Double Disc 2015 model with over 85,000 km on the odometer. I want to purchase a new bike. My daily run is about 60 km, mostly in the city (90%) with very limited highway use (10%). I’m confused between 125 cc and 150-160 cc bikes. My priorities are good mileage, strong engine life, smooth performance, reliability, durability, and low maintenance. I have shortlisted some bikes, but I am very confused. The shortlisted bikes are: in the 125 cc segment - Honda SP125 and Hero Glamour X; in the 150 cc segment - Pulsar 150 top model split seat dual disc and Yamaha FZS Hybrid; and in the 160 cc segment - Honda SP160 and Bajaj Pulsar N160 dual disc with dual channel ABS. I want a commuter bike that is sporty and stylish with mileage of at least 45-50 kmpl. Please advise.
Since you already own a 150cc bike, it would make sense for you to stay in this same category. Of the options you have shortlisted, the Honda SP160 and Bajaj Pulsar N160 are the ones we'd recommend you go with. Both are smooth, comfortable, stylish and reliable bikes that will give you the fuel economy you desire when ridden sensibly. Another great option in this class you should take a look at is the TVS Apache RTR 160 4V.
Make sure you take a test ride of these bikes to see which one suits you best.
I have been using a Honda Unicorn for the last 17 years, and its speedometer has already crossed 135,000 km. The bike still gives an impressive mileage of 47-59 kmpl. I am now looking for good 150 cc bikes that can deliver at least 50 kmpl and have a strong and reliable engine. Please suggest.
Since you already have a Unicorn, you could stick with Honda and get either a new Unicorn or its more stylish sibling, the SP160. Both are mechanically very similar, with the differences boiling down to features, seating ergonomics and a small price difference. These will return good fuel economy and also be reliable in the long run. It is an important thing to consider since your last bike is 17 years old.
If you want to look elsewhere, bikes like the Bajaj Pulsar N160, TVS Apache RTR 160 4V and Yamaha FZ models are worth considering. Of these three, the FZ has the best fuel economy but is the least engaging to ride. The Pulsar and Apache have slightly lower fuel efficiency but offer you more comfort, power and features.
A test ride should help you decide which is the right bike for you.
I currently ride a Bajaj Discover 125 and am now looking to upgrade to a 150cc motorcycle that is cost-effective and offers good fuel efficiency. My daily commute is around 35-40km. Please advise.
I am currently using a 2017 Activa 4G, and now I want to buy a bike for a daily commute of around 60 km. I am a bit confused between the Bajaj Pulsar N160 and the TVS Apache RTR 160 4V. Kindly suggest which one would be better, along with clear information on their specifications, and which one is more suitable for better mileage.
Hello Team! I commute daily to the office, around 30km round trip. My route includes a few rough patches and disjoints on flyovers. I currently ride a Meteor 350, but I am struggling with it as the rear suspension is absolutely pathetic. I am not planning to sell it due to personal attachment. I am now looking for a second, lightweight motorcycle in the ₹1.5-2 lakh range, which will be my primary commuter and used occasionally for single-day rides. Smooth gearshifts are a priority, along with excellent suspension, as I have started experiencing back pain. I am 5 feet 10 inches tall and weigh 75kg. I shortlisted the Xpulse 210 but dropped it due to concerns around quality issues and tube tyres. I really like the RTX 300, but it is out of my budget. I also like the CB300F Flex Fuel, but have heard that the rear suspension is stiff. The same concern applies to the Gixxer twins and the RTR 200. So, please assist me. At the moment, I am confused between the Hero Xtreme 160R Combat Edition and the Pulsar N160. I really liked the overall feel and sound of the N160. The Hero sales and test ride experience was not great, although the bike itself felt good. I also like the TVS Ronin, but did not find it as comfortable as the other two. Please help me decide.
I am 37 yrs old, with a serious back pain issue from slipped discs. Due to my job compulsion i need to commute 70 kms daily (30 km highway, 40 km city)on bike. While my old Unicorn is doing okay, i want to get a bike which has the most comfortable ride with least jerking (keeping my back pain in mind). I had earlier found the bullet classic 350 and avenger 220 to be mildly comfortable rides. Budget is not a constraint.
If you want to stay in the same displacement range as your Unicorn, you can look at the Bajaj Pulsar N160 and the TVS Apache RTR 160 4V. Both have great suspension, peppy performance and will return similar fuel economy to your Unicorn.
If you want to make a step up, then bikes like the Royal Enfield Hunter / Bullet / Classic 350, TVS Ronin, and Honda CB350 trio will make for good commuting partners. These are bikes with upright, neutral ergonomics, plush suspension setups and torquey, smooth engines. Expect lower fuel economy in comparison to your Unicorn, however, by virtue of its larger displacement.
Lastly, the Hero Xpulse 210 is a wonderful do-it-all machine which will have the best suspension comfort of all the bikes listed here.
A test ride of all of these bikes will help you determine which one is best for you.
I'm looking to buy a new bike, currently I'm using activa 125 to commute daily to my office. The total commuting distance is 63 kms so I'm looking for bike or scooter which is comfortable and doesn't cause body pains. I'm 5.10ft and around 90kg. Open for any vehicle upto 160cc. Please advise.
In the 150-160cc commuter bike space, you have a good variety of options from different brands to choose from. Among the straightforward, simple commuter options, bikes like the Honda Unicorn / SP160 and Yamaha FZ models will be a good fit with their excellent fuel economy as well as comfortable ride and seating position.
If you want something a little sportier, you could even consider the Bajaj Pulsar N160, which will also give you some features like a USD fork, which isn't found in most other bikes in the class. The TVS Apache RTR 160 4V is also a great option, but it can feel a little cramped, especially in the leg region. So we would recommend a test ride for all of these bikes before you decide.
Since you have a longer commute, with its longer suspension and bigger wheels, a motorcycle will be more comfortable than a scooter, so we recommend going with a bike only.
I’m currently riding a 2013 Honda Trigger and planning to upgrade to a new bike, mainly for daily city commuting to the office. I want something with good suspension, decent mileage, and enough power to overtake and filter through traffic easily. I am also confused between the 150 cc segment and the 350 cc segment - some 350 cc bikes look great but seem to lack quick pickup in the city or require frequent gear shifts. Which segment and specific models would be best for my needs?
The 150/160cc commuter segment is a great one to be shopping in for city duties because it is packed with excellent products that are comfortable, decently powerful and quite fuel efficient. Bikes like the Bajaj Pulsar N160, TVS Apache RR 160 4V, Honda Unicorn / SP160 and the Yamaha FZ models would be our top recommendations in this class.
The 350cc segment - while much larger - is geared to provide a more laidback, leisurely riding experience, and this is why you might think that these bikes "lack pickup." You should ask yourself what sort of riding experience you resonate with first before you start shortlisting vehicles.
Some bikes in between these two segments that also warrant consideration are the TVS Ronin, Bajaj Pulsar N250, Honda CB300F and the TVS Apache RTR 200 4V.
A test ride of everything you're considering will help you decide.
I am 52 years old and have been riding a Glamour bike for 10 years. Now I want to upgrade my bike. Which bike is best for me within a budget of 2 lakh?
Depending on what sort of bike you want, there are many different options to choose from. If you want a sporty commuter, then bikes like the TVS Apache RTR 160 / 200 4V, Bajaj Pulsar N160 / N250, Honda CB300F and the Suzuki Gixxer models will be good options to consider.
If you want a neo-retro bike, then bikes like the Royal Enfield Hunter / Bullet 350, Yamaha XSR155 and TVS Ronin will be the ones we recommend.
If you want an ADV, then the Hero Xpulse 200 / 210 will be bikes that deserve your attention.
Take a test ride of everything you shortlist before making a decision.
Hi, I am an office goer planning to purchase a new bike in 2026 and want to upgrade from a 125 cc to a 150/160 cc bike. I commute about 60 km daily, with roughly 50% on decent roads and 50% on broken roads. Can you please suggest a bike in the 150/160 cc segment that offers both comfort and good mileage?
In the 150/160cc category, your best bets for a comfortable and fuel-efficient machine would range between the Honda Unicorn / SP160, Bajaj Pulsar N160, TVS Apache RTR 160 4V and Hero Xtreme 160R 4V.
Depending on your physique, each bike will fit you differently. So, we would recommend a test ride of all bikes on both good and bad roads before you make a purchase.
