      A Real Cruiser - Bajaj Avenger Street 160 Cruiser
      The bike is very stable on during high speeds of 80-90 kms. Have driven to outstations close to 450 kms in a day and have never experienced any issues. Bajaj Avenger Street 160cc BS6 is an excellent option for those who wish to cruise in the busy City traffic conditions. The seating is very good for both the rider and pillion.
