I have an Avenger 220 cruise, No breakdowns yet. You can always use a sealant as a precaution for punctures. Also, the Cruise edition is more comfortable than the street edition(test drive and check it might be a different experience for y'all), the seating style and the handle are way better in cruise.. Also going on non-tarmac roads in mountains it is good to have a bike with spokes rather than alloy wheels. Also to everyone reading this when roaming in your city please at least wear helmets but when on the highway or outside your city please get all the protectors, at least get cheap protectors which have some kind of certification as something is better than nothing. A good video nonetheless.
For the last two years I use Avenger 150 Street, which never serviced in showroom or outside. I change oil 20w50 servo myself at every 3000km. Average 50km/l. Battary replaced at 20000km after 2yrs. My former bike was Splendor. So far no problem. The expected chain sprocket life is 25000km. Feel a bit heavy at courtyards. Easy to ride at normal speed.(50±10 km/h)

In the last 6months we have done 1) Vadodara - Kolhapur - Mahableshwar - Vadodara (1700+ Kms) 2) Rajasthan - (2800 Kms) 3) Vadodara - Mumbai & back + local (1000 Kms) In all the bike is SUPER all you need is some changes on the seat and extra lights along with a mobile holder for the long journeys. Guys there is no better bike in the Indian market.
Hi vaiyya.. I have an avenger street 220 bs4 and have ridden it for 30000 kms. I have the same model as yours and the colour variant is same too.. I love to ride it as it is too comfortable and it has a considerably good accleration when compard to RE classic 350. It has a good exhaust note too. But I had to change the back tyre once at almost 22000 kms due to leakages. And regular maintainence of this bikes chain is really important and I do it at around each 500 kms interval. I loved your video very much vaiyya, and appreciate your each points.
Thanks for your kind words brother, it means a lot. You guys keep me going, I am returning to TH-cam soon, maybe this month itself. Plz keep riding and keep in touch. Follow on Instagram for quick answers on dm. #doitallguy
Hi bro. I also bought the same machine on the same year i.e 2016 just 8,9 days before the demonitisation. And iam also from uttrakhand haldwani. And u solved my query once. And iam also satisfied with this bike. In the begining it was pain in the ass because it has a problem of missing ( when fuel is not reaching to engine) but eventually it was resolved with the help of your advice and by then it is running quiet well.touchwood. btw all the best with all ur good work . wish u will have 1M subs soon.
I hv Avenger 220 DTSI, 2012 make , almost 48k km done, oil change at 4000 km , and regular Service done. One of the best bike. I am experienced with JAWA , CRUSEDER 200, GF 125, SUZUKI ZEUS 125, YAMAHA, BAJAJ 135 DISCOVER. THUNDER BIRD 350. BULLET 350. BULLET 500. CONTINENTAL .ETC Avenger 220 performance is unmatched.
Oh.. you have experience with loads of machines. That matters. I am glad we have an experienced rider like you on our channel. Kindly stay with us. And keep riding.
My longest ride was from lucknow to khardungla,(4000km)on bajaj avenger street 220cc,bike performed well even on khardungla top. Same Nepal border maine bhi cross kiya tha, banbasa to gaddachauki.
I love ur video brother and I'm also avenger owner maine recently do month pahle liye hain just bcoz of u Main aapke video Dekh k liya hu I'm satisfied with my street 220 and I'm huge fan of avenger avenger justify their tagline #feel like god.. Thanq brother for video's keep it up my loves always with you..
Thnaks a lot brother. I am glad you liked it. So nice to know you will be making good memories off of this fine motorcycle. Keep riding and keep in touch.
I have a Bajaj Avenger Street 150, and on highway clear road went to 131kmph on gps. I am very light though only 55kgs and have taken a few parts off my bike to make it lighter(>~2kgs) and changed my spark plugs to pair of NGK IXs and changed my air filter to HKS superflow.
@@TheOnlySaneGuy take care of your chain. we dont realize how much diff does it make in bike's smooth functioning. about the brakes. make a habit of applying both the brakes at the same time during rainy season. & suspension can be adjusted according to your preference
Brilliant narration. Just like reading a classic write up. Kudos. Was planning to get one cruise 220. Now confused little. Since you are using street and exploring frequently , me too tend to drift. Is the street's ergonomics (specifically the handle bar ) good for long commute? Thanks in anticipation for a reply. Come to kerala once bro. I am sure you will love it.
First of all, thanks for the kind words. I really appreciate it. Now, coming to your query, the Cruise has the better ergos for long rides. I would invest on the Cruise one if I were you. And lastly, I am from Uttarakhand, a pahadi. But my wife is from South. Although I didn't get a chance to visit. I am planning to visit South for sure. Its heavenly there. God bless you and keep riding brother.
Bro, i won cruse 220, but i install tube tyre SELENT inside my tube , which will never makes your tyre puncture... so, cruse is better than street... One more disadvantage on street is for offroad ridding, alloys may get crush, where on spoke wheeles your spoke absorbe the shocks first before it hit your suspensions...
All true. But thats why I always ask whats the purpose of the motorcycle. If you have to do off-roading or if you just have to do long rides all the time. I always recommend the Cruise 220.
Hi buddy, I am planning to buy a new Avenger 180 Street. But, after reading reviews many are saying the oil cooled version - Street 220 is more reliable. My usage is mostly city ride as well as occasional 100kms highway runs. What I want is reliability and comfortable riding position. Has anyone tried increasing the height of the seat? Will that makes the drive a bit more composed. I had Royal Enfield Bullets and honestly does not have the patience to look after those motorcycles which are having too much problems (I had Electra 4S and Std 350). The only other option is Avenger, but when you ask anyone, the feedback is very poor resale value, braking problem, skidding problem, looks like a toy cruiser etc. This makes taking a final decision confusing. Your views please.
Sorry for replying late brother, was unwell. And yeah I always suggest to go for the street 220, as there really is not replacement fot displacement. more CCs mean more peace. the motorcycle is known for its comfort whether its 180 or 220. you can try different aftermarket seats to increase the height, many like to do so. I have a classic 350 with me and I seldom ride it. my advice is to go with your heart. at the end of the day, they are not going to ride it, you will. so do what 'you' want. REs are known to make you a mechanic. Avenger has been good to me for the last 2 years. with occasional hick-ups. watch my other videos, you will be able to make a sound decision. cheers mate.
Proud owner of this amazing creation... Avenger 220 ...since Feb 2013. Do u have any idea what is the max age of an Avenger ? Mine looks well maintained till date.
Bhai mere 220 cruise ne 1.95 liter me matlab 150 rs ke petrol me current pune petrol rate .. i can't believe 116 km chali.. ha ideal setting or chain spocket change kiye hai.. love you cruise
I agree that everyone has to go in for the street as I had issues with the cruise when it was time to change the tyres. Plus my wife also rides and she does solo rides for 1000 Kms plus so its really nice to have confidence on tubless
Man you seem like my kinda guy. I appreciate your riding spirit and your passion (yours wife's too). Kudos to both of you. I wish you the best of everything. Keep riding brother.
This amazing legend motorbike Avenger. An amazing comfortable with a good balancing motorbike, specially for the low center of Gravity, at-least much better than Himalayan!! With a good acceleration pick up for a cruiser motorbike and a beautiful backrest, the best affordable long journey bike for common Indian riders.
Bro. Yeh toh fir 220 cc hai mein first time avenger 150 street hire karke dalhousie gya tha from amritsar... Aur dalhousie saara explore kiya chaugaan,chamera lake,khajjiar,chamba,dainkund peak meine around 600 km chalayi and bike is damn awesome... Average bhi achi di👌🏼
It's a beautiful review... And I see your meritorious nature you have even arranged the screws and bolts in lines and such attention to details. Keep up the work.
Nice review.... Have got my avenger cruise on last Feb have completed now 15000 kms. Covered mainly commuting to office and home. Long trip have been to Bangalore to Madikere. Awesome bike..... 😊😊😊
Congrats brother. Very good decision. Sorry to reply so late. I am very glad u bought this machine now plz consider buying some safety gears to protect yourself. A good helmet, good gloves and a jacket is must. It wont cost much.
If u know how to repair tyre, then no problem with that. specially the tube type tyre is better in rigidity, but I like the look of street that the cruise.
Very nicely done sir. I have just subscribed to your channel. Your in-depth analysis and attention to detail has made me a fan. Hats off to you Sir.!! 👍
In Baroda there is no issues of getting the back rest and the windshield. The back rest comes in four parts and I have installed it on my Street. (sold my cruise 2013 n bought an street in April). Plus I have also done the wrapping on the back rest. Your video was very useful on the same.
Riding 220street from past 2 years.. The problems I faced are not covered (may be difference in riding style/expectations) Bad breaks.. Stock tyres needs to be updated.. Higher RPM's have vibration.. 19BHP is not adequate for 220cc.. 😥..
Yeah, maybe coz of riding style maybe. Tyres are going good. And yes, power is low, coz of detuned engine. And thats a good thing. Coz bajaj makes the rough engines, thats why pulsars go harsh in time. A detuned engine is a bit relaxed. And vibes are almost not there on mine. But I do ride relaxed when on rides.
Try different engine oil maybe? And use NGK spark plugs, also when you change your plugs look at them, if they are white in colour then your carb is air rich, and if it's too black and dirty then fuel rich.
@@TheOnlySaneGuy Do you have any recommendations? I have heard good feedback from "Motul" (searching now) and hopefully that should give a smile on my face 🦸
@@ShubhDasgupta Si! Im using Motul 7100, because it's cheaper than 300v and I don't see much difference between them other than price 😂. It lasts for 2.5k to 3.5k Kms depends on your use, 300v will last ~1k more.
Hi @theXplorer, Awesome Video, you'r having a gr8 riding experience.I own Cruise 220 from last 1 year & covered 9k kms by having 3 long rides of approx 500 km (return) trips and a daily commuting, but yes as you said in this vid., I always have a fear in my mind of puncturing of my rear tire, because I had an 3 punchers till now (2 happened for long ride) and literally that sucks. Since then, I always carry extra tube with me because some puncher guys did not have 220 rear tube available with them. Actually I am planning to install Tubeless Tyre on my cruise 220. Is it possible to install Tubeless on my Avenger Cruise 220???
Yes man. It is doable. I had a friend who did it. Ask your mechanic or bajaj workshop. They will let you know. Otherwise there are lots of bike modification shops..try there.
@@ArkaRoyDA32 I have always talked about not messing with electricals of this bike as it is without any kick start. So I never use LED or fog lights. But people have done it successfully. So maybe in near future
This on rules the highways my man. With speedo indicated top speed of around 140. You can really cruise. I rode for 8 hours straight in a day as well. It does get hot but not exceptionally hot.
Hi ye bike pothole k.liye kaise I am living Mumbai suburbs and roads really sucks I have shine which is not good for bad roads I have back pain due to that will it be good option ? I was thinking of avenger 160 st and hero xpulse ? Which one is good for daily commute I ride 65km per day
The only problem to Install the windshield is you have no space left. We have bolt, black cat charger plus fog lights switch. I wanted to install is there any way I can that. If we change to cruise handle it will cost me 450 + 1200 to 1500 extra for getting the wires (clutch, brake, accelerater, disk brake). Plus on turns and traffic the street handle works better.
There is a solution for that as well. Get this type of handlebar mo wire change needed. Plus more mounting options. Here: th-cam.com/video/V6ATacvuLPg/w-d-xo.html
What is the difference between 220 Cruise and 220 Street? Which is best.? I’m planning to shift from Yamaha Enticer to BAJAJ Avenger 220 Cruise... Please Suggest me Brother...

One of the best review i've come across Avenger Street 220 so far. Please do let me know your experience on off road, I'm planning to go with Avenger 160 street BS6, as you know 220 street is discontinued. I Hope ill get reply on this
Thanks fir your comment. And as far as off road is concerned, the performance can be termed as Decent. Not something to be proud of but also not something to be ashamed of. I did a little bit of off-roading at my hometown and it was okay, plus when I took it to Nepal, I had to save my life so I travelled through a lot of fields and forests, and it was okay. But do keep in mind that it is not meant for that. So you have to just wing it. Keep riding and keep in touch brother.
Good content, good information, especially about the diff in cruise and street version. Planning to buy one, already booked a Jawa but already got a 2017 Avenger street 220 on trial. Concerns? I'm 6'2. Anyways, good work!
At 6'2 you might have a little trouble on avenger. Basically the knees come in the way of handlebars. Thats the issue. But if you are considering, I always propose to have a long test ride. To get the wheel of the bike.
theXplorer Hey, Yes you’re right the handlebar was bothersome but I got it turned a little upwards and all is well now. Fuel meter is incorrect most of the times but the motorcycle is kinda growing on me as I have it for a few weeks that does for a long test ride. Jawa showroom opens on 31 Jan here. If I don’t like it I will go for the Avenger with ABS, not sure if I’ll get a street or a cruise.
@@kunalarora5145 To get the most out of Avenger go for Cruise, you will be sacrificing on tubeless tyres, but it is a better ride in terms of comfort. on street you get tubeless tyres. but please do a long test ride on Jawa too, if possible. Cheers mate.
Awesome video buddy. I have 220 cruise, can you just suggest some specific service refinements that can increase the performance? Mine is already 12k and running.
Well these are the basics: 1. Use good Engine Oil. 2. Keep the bike clean. 3. Learn a little bit of mechanical works. 4. Change your air filter foam on every service. 5. Use engine flush every 5000 kms. 6. Park mostly on the Center Stand. 7. Do not park directly outside in case of rain etc 8. Clean and Lube your chain every 500 kms. 9. Wear as much as riding gear as you can. 10. For 1 kms or 100 kms, Helmet is a must.
Well, let me put it this way. It all depends on how you ride and why are you getting it? If Highway Rides are your thing and you will be spending more time on the highways than in the city then go for 220 Cruise. You will only lose a bit of mileage over the Street 160 but the ride comfort is unmatched. On the other hand, if you mostly want to ride in the city with only weekend rides on the highway than the Street 160 is more than capable of doin so. Plus it will be lighter on the pocket too. Also, a key point to consider is what you are riding as of now and how is the riding stance? For instance, I was riding a Honda Stunner and it was pretty committed for a 125CC, when I switched to the Street 220... My mind just exploded, I thought it was the best posture for a bike. Fast Forward to August 2020, I sold the Avenger and got a Benelli leoncino 250, and it is more committed than the Stunner 125, it iwas awkward for a while, now I love it. So it also matters what you are switching from. Hope I helped. This is the longest reply I have ever given, in the hindsight it would have been better to just shoot a video. Anyway, let me know if you have any doubts and plz consider SUBSCRIBING. Bless you.
Can it easily maneuver in city? Cz my mostly rides will be in city only? And long rides in weekends. And most imp. Que .. will pillion be comfortable on long rides? Say 300- 400 kilometer rides?
Not too easy but yes, fairly easy. You get used to it. for city riding, take street 220 and not the cruise. you will be fine. pillion will be fairly comfortable compared to any other motorcycle. just get the backrest for more support and widen the seat a little. check the mods for more comfort in this video: th-cam.com/video/bO_oByUUFFs/w-d-xo.html

Sir I like avenger 160 street so I am thinking to buy but I am being refused just because of kick starter , so I asking from ur side can I buy it , do I get problem many times
Brother, I feel you. Let me provide you my 2 cents. Motorcycling is both Passion and a way of transport. If you are passionate rider, follow your heart. I have seen people buy old pulsar (first gen) coz it has a significance over the new models. Its all about passion that way. If you feel connected to the motorcycle in any way, you will decide for that motorcycle only. Coming to your case, If your heart is set on Bajaj Street 160, go ahead. The kick issue wont bother you too much. Its not always that it creates a problem. Just take good care of it. On the other hand if your heart tells you different, go with it. In case of a motorcycle, heart always wins.
Yes. Why not? Take a test ride. Ride for a little long. See if there is any unnecessary vibration. Also, check the service record. If everything is working fine then 40K is decent for a 3 year old bike.
Yes my battery was down, and my mechanic advice to get it push the bike in 2 nd gear and like old time fiat one man push my bike and in few try it started. Then I replaced battery

Well, its funny, coz just today I got my bike serviced and I put Waxpol Engine Oil in it (pretty lame right?). But someone wanted to know about a budget engine oil under 400/-. Anyway, if you want to play it safe, stick to 3100 (20W50). But if you want to experiment, Motul 5100 is really good.

Nice Man. thats awesome
I have an Avenger 220 cruise, No breakdowns yet. You can always use a sealant as a precaution for punctures. Also, the Cruise edition is more comfortable than the street edition(test drive and check it might be a different experience for y'all), the seating style and the handle are way better in cruise.. Also going on non-tarmac roads in mountains it is good to have a bike with spokes rather than alloy wheels. Also to everyone reading this when roaming in your city please at least wear helmets but when on the highway or outside your city please get all the protectors, at least get cheap protectors which have some kind of certification as something is better than nothing. A good video nonetheless.
Completely agree with this. Everything is spot on.
Keep riding and keep in touch.
For the last two years I use Avenger 150 Street, which never serviced in showroom or outside. I change oil 20w50 servo myself at every 3000km. Average 50km/l. Battary replaced at 20000km after 2yrs. My former bike was Splendor. So far no problem. The expected chain sprocket life is 25000km. Feel a bit heavy at courtyards. Easy to ride at normal speed.(50±10 km/h)
Thats an awesome review.
Hope you ride it hard and hearty.

@@naturefriend9362 Avenger brother.
most comfy bike for long drive
Hi vaiyya.. I have an avenger street 220 bs4 and have ridden it for 30000 kms. I have the same model as yours and the colour variant is same too.. I love to ride it as it is too comfortable and it has a considerably good accleration when compard to RE classic 350. It has a good exhaust note too. But I had to change the back tyre once at almost 22000 kms due to leakages. And regular maintainence of this bikes chain is really important and I do it at around each 500 kms interval.
I loved your video very much vaiyya, and appreciate your each points.
Thanks for your kind words brother, it means a lot. You guys keep me going, I am returning to TH-cam soon, maybe this month itself. Plz keep riding and keep in touch. Follow on Instagram for quick answers on dm. #doitallguy
This bike is very capable.
My family also owned this bike and the top speed test was 130 to 132 top end in a long run. ☺☺
Great 👍
I own a 220 cruise 2015 model i have hit 140kmph, use motul and installed Barell exhaust.. it's truly a FLG
During my ride from Delhi to Shirdi, I also touched the 140 kmph mark. But was not recording it.
Hi bro. I also bought the same machine on the same year i.e 2016 just 8,9 days before the demonitisation. And iam also from uttrakhand haldwani. And u solved my query once. And iam also satisfied with this bike. In the begining it was pain in the ass because it has a problem of missing ( when fuel is not reaching to engine) but eventually it was resolved with the help of your advice and by then it is running quiet well.touchwood. btw all the best with all ur good work . wish u will have 1M subs soon.

Cruise 220 for long trips, always. The comfort is unmatched.
I have a Bajaj Avenger Street 150, and on highway clear road went to 131kmph on gps. I am very light though only 55kgs and have taken a few parts off my bike to make it lighter(>~2kgs) and changed my spark plugs to pair of NGK IXs and changed my air filter to HKS superflow.

Golden words man. made my day. Thanks a lot.
Brilliant narration. Just like reading a classic write up. Kudos. Was planning to get one cruise 220. Now confused little. Since you are using street and exploring frequently , me too tend to drift. Is the street's ergonomics (specifically the handle bar ) good for long commute? Thanks in anticipation for a reply. Come to kerala once bro. I am sure you will love it.
First of all, thanks for the kind words. I really appreciate it. Now, coming to your query, the Cruise has the better ergos for long rides. I would invest on the Cruise one if I were you.
And lastly, I am from Uttarakhand, a pahadi. But my wife is from South. Although I didn't get a chance to visit. I am planning to visit South for sure. Its heavenly there.
God bless you and keep riding brother.
Bro, i won cruse 220, but i install tube tyre SELENT inside my tube , which will never makes your tyre puncture... so, cruse is better than street...
One more disadvantage on street is for offroad ridding, alloys may get crush, where on spoke wheeles your spoke absorbe the shocks first before it hit your suspensions...
All true. But thats why I always ask whats the purpose of the motorcycle. If you have to do off-roading or if you just have to do long rides all the time. I always recommend the Cruise 220.
Hi buddy, I am planning to buy a new Avenger 180 Street. But, after reading reviews many are saying the oil cooled version - Street 220 is more reliable. My usage is mostly city ride as well as occasional 100kms highway runs. What I want is reliability and comfortable riding position. Has anyone tried increasing the height of the seat? Will that makes the drive a bit more composed. I had Royal Enfield Bullets and honestly does not have the patience to look after those motorcycles which are having too much problems (I had Electra 4S and Std 350). The only other option is Avenger, but when you ask anyone, the feedback is very poor resale value, braking problem, skidding problem, looks like a toy cruiser etc. This makes taking a final decision confusing. Your views please.
Sorry for replying late brother, was unwell. And yeah I always suggest to go for the street 220, as there really is not replacement fot displacement. more CCs mean more peace. the motorcycle is known for its comfort whether its 180 or 220. you can try different aftermarket seats to increase the height, many like to do so. I have a classic 350 with me and I seldom ride it. my advice is to go with your heart. at the end of the day, they are not going to ride it, you will. so do what 'you' want. REs are known to make you a mechanic. Avenger has been good to me for the last 2 years. with occasional hick-ups. watch my other videos, you will be able to make a sound decision. cheers mate.
Proud owner of this amazing creation... Avenger 220 ...since Feb 2013. Do u have any idea what is the max age of an Avenger ? Mine looks well maintained till date.
It depends on how you maintain it. It will probably outlive you if you maintain it the right way. Kudos to you for the care.
Meri ko 5 saal 20k km hogaye . Abhi bhi charm h bro
My Street 220 did 120 kmph max on a highway...........my weight is 90 kgs. However it's a brilliant machine for both commuting & touring
Indeed
Bhai mere 220 cruise ne 1.95 liter me matlab 150 rs ke petrol me current pune petrol rate .. i can't believe 116 km chali.. ha ideal setting or chain spocket change kiye hai.. love you cruise
I agree that everyone has to go in for the street as I had issues with the cruise when it was time to change the tyres. Plus my wife also rides and she does solo rides for 1000 Kms plus so its really nice to have confidence on tubless

In Baroda there is no issues of getting the back rest and the windshield. The back rest comes in four parts and I have installed it on my Street. (sold my cruise 2013 n bought an street in April). Plus I have also done the wrapping on the back rest. Your video was very useful on the same.
Riding 220street from past 2 years.. The problems I faced are not covered (may be difference in riding style/expectations) Bad breaks.. Stock tyres needs to be updated.. Higher RPM's have vibration.. 19BHP is not adequate for 220cc.. 😥..
Yeah, maybe coz of riding style maybe. Tyres are going good. And yes, power is low, coz of detuned engine. And thats a good thing. Coz bajaj makes the rough engines, thats why pulsars go harsh in time. A detuned engine is a bit relaxed. And vibes are almost not there on mine. But I do ride relaxed when on rides.
Try different engine oil maybe? And use NGK spark plugs, also when you change your plugs look at them, if they are white in colour then your carb is air rich, and if it's too black and dirty then fuel rich.
@@TheOnlySaneGuy Do you have any recommendations? I have heard good feedback from "Motul" (searching now) and hopefully that should give a smile on my face 🦸

Hi @theXplorer, Awesome Video, you'r having a gr8 riding experience.I own Cruise 220 from last 1 year & covered 9k kms by having 3 long rides of approx 500 km (return) trips and a daily commuting, but yes as you said in this vid., I always have a fear in my mind of puncturing of my rear tire, because I had an 3 punchers till now (2 happened for long ride) and literally that sucks. Since then, I always carry extra tube with me because some puncher guys did not have 220 rear tube available with them. Actually I am planning to install Tubeless Tyre on my cruise 220. Is it possible to install Tubeless on my Avenger Cruise 220???
Yes man. It is doable. I had a friend who did it. Ask your mechanic or bajaj workshop. They will let you know. Otherwise there are lots of bike modification shops..try there.
Very good video brother. 🙏
I've been riding on my street 150 for more than a year and my experience does also agree with you.

One Question Performance Of Headline on Highway
This on rules the highways my man.
With speedo indicated top speed of around 140. You can really cruise.
I rode for 8 hours straight in a day as well. It does get hot but not exceptionally hot.
Hi ye bike pothole k.liye kaise I am living Mumbai suburbs and roads really sucks I have shine which is not good for bad roads I have back pain due to that will it be good option ? I was thinking of avenger 160 st and hero xpulse ? Which one is good for daily commute I ride 65km per day
Thanks
The only problem to Install the windshield is you have no space left. We have bolt, black cat charger plus fog lights switch. I wanted to install is there any way I can that. If we change to cruise handle it will cost me 450 + 1200 to 1500 extra for getting the wires (clutch, brake, accelerater, disk brake).
Plus on turns and traffic the street handle works better.
There is a solution for that as well. Get this type of handlebar mo wire change needed. Plus more mounting options. Here: th-cam.com/video/V6ATacvuLPg/w-d-xo.html

One of the best review i've come across Avenger Street 220 so far. Please do let me know your experience on off road, I'm planning to go with Avenger 160 street BS6, as you know 220 street is discontinued. I Hope ill get reply on this
Thanks fir your comment. And as far as off road is concerned, the performance can be termed as Decent. Not something to be proud of but also not something to be ashamed of. I did a little bit of off-roading at my hometown and it was okay, plus when I took it to Nepal, I had to save my life so I travelled through a lot of fields and forests, and it was okay.

Good content, good information, especially about the diff in cruise and street version. Planning to buy one, already booked a Jawa but already got a 2017 Avenger street 220 on trial. Concerns? I'm 6'2. Anyways, good work!
At 6'2 you might have a little trouble on avenger. Basically the knees come in the way of handlebars. Thats the issue. But if you are considering, I always propose to have a long test ride. To get the wheel of the bike.
theXplorer
Hey,
Yes you’re right the handlebar was bothersome but I got it turned a little upwards and all is well now. Fuel meter is incorrect most of the times but the motorcycle is kinda growing on me as I have it for a few weeks that does for a long test ride. Jawa showroom opens on 31 Jan here. If I don’t like it I will go for the Avenger with ABS, not sure if I’ll get a street or a cruise.
@@kunalarora5145 To get the most out of Avenger go for Cruise, you will be sacrificing on tubeless tyres, but it is a better ride in terms of comfort. on street you get tubeless tyres. but please do a long test ride on Jawa too, if possible. Cheers mate.

Amazing review bro...👍
Thanks man. Honored. Keep riding and Keep in touch.
Awesome video buddy. I have 220 cruise, can you just suggest some specific service refinements that can increase the performance? Mine is already 12k and running.
Well these are the basics:
1. Use good Engine Oil.
2. Keep the bike clean.
3. Learn a little bit of mechanical works.
4. Change your air filter foam on every service.
5. Use engine flush every 5000 kms.
6. Park mostly on the Center Stand.
7. Do not park directly outside in case of rain etc
8. Clean and Lube your chain every 500 kms.
9. Wear as much as riding gear as you can.
10. For 1 kms or 100 kms, Helmet is a must.
How will Avenger 150 abs for City ride as well as occasionally long ride.
Good for city rides plus occasional long rides. Go for it.
@@theXplorerRS thank you
Hi I wanted to buy Avenger but confused to buy 160 or 220 cruise, pls guide on...
Well, let me put it this way.
It all depends on how you ride and why are you getting it?
If Highway Rides are your thing and you will be spending more time on the highways than in the city then go for 220 Cruise. You will only lose a bit of mileage over the Street 160 but the ride comfort is unmatched.
On the other hand, if you mostly want to ride in the city with only weekend rides on the highway than the Street 160 is more than capable of doin so. Plus it will be lighter on the pocket too.
Also, a key point to consider is what you are riding as of now and how is the riding stance? For instance, I was riding a Honda Stunner and it was pretty committed for a 125CC, when I switched to the Street 220... My mind just exploded, I thought it was the best posture for a bike. Fast Forward to August 2020, I sold the Avenger and got a Benelli leoncino 250, and it is more committed than the Stunner 125, it iwas awkward for a while, now I love it. So it also matters what you are switching from.
Hope I helped. This is the longest reply I have ever given, in the hindsight it would have been better to just shoot a video. Anyway, let me know if you have any doubts and plz consider SUBSCRIBING. Bless you.
Can it easily maneuver in city?
Cz my mostly rides will be in city only? And long rides in weekends.
And most imp. Que .. will pillion be comfortable on long rides? Say 300- 400 kilometer rides?
Not too easy but yes, fairly easy. You get used to it. for city riding, take street 220 and not the cruise. you will be fine. pillion will be fairly comfortable compared to any other motorcycle. just get the backrest for more support and widen the seat a little. check the mods for more comfort in this video: th-cam.com/video/bO_oByUUFFs/w-d-xo.html
You cleared all the doubts.
Thank you for this.
42.!!??? And 50.! Really.
I'm planning for an avenger, but confused between 160 and 220
Actually, that is a one time occurrence. Practically, you will get around 38 in city and 45 on the highway. IF you drive sensibly (slow).

Sir I like avenger 160 street so I am thinking to buy but I am being refused just because of kick starter , so I asking from ur side can I buy it , do I get problem many times
Brother, I feel you. Let me provide you my 2 cents. Motorcycling is both Passion and a way of transport. If you are passionate rider, follow your heart. I have seen people buy old pulsar (first gen) coz it has a significance over the new models. Its all about passion that way. If you feel connected to the motorcycle in any way, you will decide for that motorcycle only.
Coming to your case, If your heart is set on Bajaj Street 160, go ahead. The kick issue wont bother you too much. Its not always that it creates a problem. Just take good care of it.
On the other hand if your heart tells you different, go with it.
In case of a motorcycle, heart always wins.
Bro is it ok to buy a second hand 3 yrs old avenger 220 at 40k. please reply.... what point do I need to check
Yes. Why not?
Take a test ride. Ride for a little long.
See if there is any unnecessary vibration. Also, check the service record. If everything is working fine then 40K is decent for a 3 year old bike.
it doesn't have a kick starter.....so have you faced any problems??
Yes, once.. here: th-cam.com/video/VVs3sH0XMGs/w-d-xo.html

But i am little bit confused between avenger 220 & dominar 400. What do you suggest bro?
Well... thats a little tricky. I would suggest you to go try both of them. Ask a friend.
and take a long test ride. then decide
Bhai meine aajtak apache zplusar vghra sports bike chalai hai,kal meine avenger chalai mujhe maza sa nahi aaya chalane m zaada.Chalaunga to aadat pd jaaegi?
I am confused in buying Apache 4v or avenger. And planning to go on road trips
Yes, aadat pad jaati hai. Try to ride it for a little long. 1 ya 2 din chala ke dekho. And if you are serious about long rides then go with Avenger. Apache 4v bhi achchi hai, nothing wrong with it.
ITs a good vehucle but no good provision given to carry bag or luggage. my bag was burned while on travel. silincer is too hot. no enough gap or cover on silencer.
Can u please tell us which motul oil is preferrable ?
Well, its funny, coz just today I got my bike serviced and I put Waxpol Engine Oil in it (pretty lame right?). But someone wanted to know about a budget engine oil under 400/-.
Anyway, if you want to play it safe, stick to 3100 (20W50).
But if you want to experiment, Motul 5100 is really good.
After seeing the entire video, I don't see you taking about the head light performance in the night! Plz review about that as well
Hey buddy... Amazing video I would compliment you by giving a video a name "Biopic of legend - The Avenger"
Whoa man... that is a great honor to this video. Thanks a million. Keep rocking brother. And keep riding.
@@theXplorerRS could pz do me a favor. I request you to do review on Dominar. The similar way you did for Avenger.
@@ashwinhatkar3523 i wish i could man. But i dont have a dominar. Will find a channel for u for sure though.
@@theXplorerRS thanks
Thank you so much my Brother for very valuable information shared 🙏😊
Nice review plz advice where u bought the handle bar if u purchased online
Sorry man, got it locally. I have a video on that too. Check that out for issues and info. And Happy New Year.
Please provide link/name of Wax that you are using for the rusted parts or to protect them.
I use different brands man. And to be honest, I just go to amazon and xBhp and read about the product and then i order it. Thats my way. Lol.
Hi. Bro
Mere pass bhi ye bike hai. But maine long ride abhitak nahi ki hai ispe.
Jyada long ride karne se specially is bike pe taqlif hoti hai kya ?
Muze spondilycis ka problem hai. Isiliye maine ye bike purchase ki thi.
No man. If you have back problem this is the beat bike in the market. And what do u mean by long rides me problem? This bike is made to go long. I have done Nepal and Maharashtra on it. Trust me, you made a great choice.
Bro , I have bajaj avenger 220 street , I have a problem the fuel indicator shows 3or 4 levels , but bike stops with giving" jhatka 'type is it I have to put on reserve , I am new to this bike , please guide me .
Empty you fuel tank completely and fill petrol from a reliable petrol pump. Get the carburator checked. and also the air filter.
Sir,, i want to buy avenger 220,,i am waiting for abs model in my nearest show room..but me decide nahi kar pa raha hu ki cruise ya street le,,,my choice is white ccruise due to its wind shield & chrome look.....but it has no tubelessssss.......please hints.....
I have discussed this in my channel, watch the Street vs Cruise video.
I thanks you to make a correct decision to buy Avenger.
You are welcome buddy. You made a really good decision. Now just take good care of this machine and you both will be very happy together.
Keep riding brother.
Bro street or cruise......I like cruise...but I am buying for maximum city and weekend long drives...I worry about tubed tyres on cruise too.. will it be a problem
@@monishkumardurairaj3038 Go with Street man. I think its worth it. You will be riding in the city a lot, for that, Street is golden. You can also do some weekend riding.
What to use for cleaning and get the shine on bike?
Any wax. Carnauba works great.
@@theXplorerRS Thanks.
U r right. No tuneless on long rides is big headache.
I m also planning to buy one on my B.day.
I m confused between thunderbird or Avenger?🙄
Bro how abt 160 cc Street bcz m planning to purchase one ...
Good machine. you can go for it.
Sir I'60cc what would be the maximum special you suggest
SUPER MAN...that was a genuine motto vlog...Enjoyed it...informative indeed!
That means a lot brother. Thanks for taking the time for this. Stay in touch.
I'm also planning to buy this bike that's why I'm watching your video 👍..
How comfortable is the driver's seat on long rides (like 500-600 km)?
Brilliant seat. In fact, it's the best seat amongst all motorcycles (Indian made).
@@theXplorerRS thanks for the prompt reply! 👍
@@theXplorerRS is the handle lock separate like on a Royal Enfield Classic or is it in the same place as the engine off switch? Do you have to lock the handles separately after turning the bike off and taking the key out?
@@dudesayingthings Yes, You have to lock the bike and lock the handlebar separately.
@@dudesayingthings Always my fellow motorhead. And anytime. Keep in touch and keep riding, Also, something new and big is coming, follow on insta to be in constant reminder. instagram.com/doitallguy/
How is Avenger 220 cruise in comparison with 220 Street in terms of touring comfort and handling?
WoW!! The way you said everything is really nice. It's a details update of everything i want to know. I also ride 150 street and it's quite satisfactory except some cons. And i believe you also realized it.
Good day.
Glad you liked it brother. Thanks for the comment. Check out other videos as well. This whole channel is about Avenger and long rides.
@@theXplorerRS Thanks man!! I want to know how i can order kits for Avenger 150 street? & from which site? I am from Bangladesh.
@@fzaentertainmentnetwork6751 what do you mean by 'kits' brother?
@@theXplorerRS Like you said about the front glass shield...
@@fzaentertainmentnetwork6751 well, if you are taking about the wind shield, you can get the official one from Bajaj Showroom near you. For aftermarket, you need to find a nearby motorcycle market.
130+ touch kiya hai maine mumbai me, mere pass bhi 2016 model hai
Wahi toh, maine bhi around 140 mark kiya hai touch, but on open highways when I was on Shirdi trip. Yahan traffic speed pakadne hi nahin deta.
Hi I have avenger Street 220 5000 KM's done after riding 15-20 kms my bike heats up alot and I can smell the burning heat fumes is that the case with all the avenger models I have check all the things which are required to reduce heat engine and all
Thanks ... 1st time i see the best details about avenger....
Mera hight 5'3ft hai ,main r15s chala ta tha or mujhe spine main problem aa gaya 57000km drive karne ke baad or main use sell kar diya abhi main soch raha haun iss bike ke barren main kya ye mere liye perfect hoga mere spine problem ke liye bhi kya ye comfortable rahega plz reply bhai mere life ka sawal hai so plz reply i am waiting ......🙏
Pehle toh sun ke bura laga aapki spine ke bare mein, I hope you recover soon. aur jahan tak bike ki baat hai, avenger is the most comfortable bike for people with bac problems. But aapko test ride karke dekhna padega, kyuki 100 me se ek banda zaroor hota hai jo avenger par bhi back pain kar leta hai. isliye ek baar zaroor try kar ke dekho. ho sake toh apne circle me kisi ki chala kar dekho.
You said right for windshield and backrest
Thanks man. Appreciate your comment.
Windshield and backrest are necessary.
Please speak a bit fast. Please note down your thoughts before making the video. Aap bohut slow jaa rahe the, it's as if you were talking to me face-to-face, making the video long.
Also, thank you for the information. Appreciate it. (y)
Duly noted. Will try to improve. Thanks for the info. Keep riding and keep in touch.
18000 long term hai..to lagbhag 100000km (my bike) se jayada kya hoga... long very long term review
Bilkul. Very Very Long Term Review.. 😀
Motul 7100 1ltr or 1.5ltr mein ata hai aap kaunsa kharidte ho please batao
I buy Motul 5100 1 ltr(2 cans). Then I use 1.2 ltrs and keep the rest for next time.
If you want to use 7100 get the 1.5 ltr bottle.
Broken roads pe bike skid hota he breaks lagane pe, so ABS and rear disk was must needed for this bike......otherwise for good road it's great
yes man. you said it. its almost necessary. lets see in 2019 version, what they provide.
Change the rear tyre to a 140 section Ceat or Ralco, no skidding after that
@@reetabratabhattacharya4748yes those who already bought that is the option, but for new version company should address this problem.
@@reetabratabhattacharya4748 You know what, I actually was planning to go for a 140 section tyre back when I bought it.. I will think about it.. wider the tyre the better it looks as well.
Exactly
I am a new rider, 5'6", need to travel 100 km per day (mostly village 2 lane state highway). Which one is better choice for me? Avenger 160 bs6 or fzs bs6
Go with Avenger 160. But plz, do take a test ride of both the bikes. Then only you will be able to make a clear choice.
सर 15 हजार किलोमीटर के बाद अवरेज कम होता है क्या ..? अगर हम 100 के उपर के स्पीड से चलया तो ..अवरेज मे फरक पड सकता है क्या याने कम होगा क्या ..?
No. Don't worry. But try to ride sanely.
Bhai bike papers kaha rakh saktae hai avenger ma?
keep 2 copies. 1 in your mobile phone (download m-parivahan app) and 2 in your bag. Never keep bike papers on your motorcycle, in case of theft, your bike papers are also gone. Also, in case of any accident, heavy rain etc. the bike papers get damaged.
My bike is Avenger 150. It gives more than 55 km/L
Great
Need your advise in general ,I am about to buy avenger 220 Street which is almost 2.5 yrs old and has run about 17000 km ,what do you suggest so I will be sure that I got the right deal .
anywhere around 50k, depends on the condition and history. how is the engine. take a mechanic with you.
