                        Chetak the reliable option for Indian
                        Affordable price of chetak and get many colour options with a durable frame and comfortable ride and cities with a good posture for average height people it might look a little bit different from other Chetak. It gives a mileage of 80 to 100 according to your driving style and with I catching looks and a good design and is easily handle because its weight is very less and have a balanced riding poster and have a special thing which is the word Chetak means reliable. I will recommend this for the people who ride it only in cities and want to ride a little bit for office and all and have a daily running of 20 to 50 km and get a 55 top speed which is slightly less for many people.

                        Good bike for youngsters
                        Good handling and medium breaking, medium performance for short time city and highway riding, good sharp stylish looking naked bike, good road presence, low service charge with medium mileage 30 to 40 kmpl. Long ride comfort is not good after 100km. Wrist pain and shoulder pain, good handling bike. It's give you confidence to flicker very easily. Front break is good stopping power but too much abs kicking problem, rear brake is not good, no stopping power. Top speed after 2nd service 124 highest, mileage not that good 40 km after simple riding. If you ride aggressively, mileage can drop upto 30-25 kmpl. Can recommend this bike to the youngsters who go to college and those who want to explore many places on bike. Short time riding and some time aggressive riding and those who want naked sports bike in low cc and low service charge bike, this is good for them.

                        Excellent bike
                        My pulsar NS 160 is still in excellent condition with all documents and riding experience is awesome and bike is also fast and reliable. It also offers dual channel Abs and it has less maintenance cost and it gives immense pleasure to ride. Bike mileage is about 40 kmpl and full tank costs nearly 1k only and this is the best bike, I have ever rode in my life.

                        good bike but need some improvements.
                        The bike is good handling and performance but the mileage is not that good, it gives me 30-35 kmpl mileage. Meanwhile, the other 160 segment bikes give more mileage and it's not that smooth at higher revs, feels too much vibration. Design is good and handling is good but not so comfortable feels pain in back and shoulder after long ride as it's sports bike.

                        Review of my 6 years old NS160
                        I got this bike when i was 18 back in 2019, after almost 6 plus years and 30 thousand kilometres. I personally see this bike as the best value for money one can get. Apart from that this bike is still relevant after all these years. The one thing i like the most about this vehicle is its handling. If maintained well this bike gives a smooth and comfortable ride be it in city or highway. Mine is twin disc variant with single channel ABS, break bite is quick enough to react in emergency breaking situations. The only con I have noticed so far is bajaj's parts durability. Though they offer parts at cheaper rates comparatively but still it becomes a headache when you need to replace them more often. Will recommend this bike any day. For me this is a perfect package of commuter, adventure, long riding basically everything. I have done 500 kms in a single day stopped at every 100 kms for nearly 30 mins and the bike performed very well. This is a perfect bike for those who look for a all-rounder bike with low maintenance.

                        Unbeatable 3.5hours charging time with100 km range
                        I choose this because I felt it's design is best among all the electric vehicle. And I also didn't find any other vehicle which has 100 kms of range, top speed 94 km and the best part charging time was only 3.3 hours. My ride was far better then expectations. I'm glad to use this for everyday work and trust me that 3 hours charging time with 100 kms range is unbeatable for now. It made my life so easy. However, I would expect better shocker, seat and hand buttons to easily reachable. Highly recommend vehicle for everyone those who had to commute daily should must choose this bike. I daily put it for charge in the morning for just 2 hours and I'm ready to go for whole day. Being the best, this vehicle needs marketing,

                        after my two months research I found my required bike Thank you ampere
                        Technically, very good with lfp battery and not using hub motor, build up quality superb and looks great. Looks totally different. I personally went to showroom and I feel that it is same as shown on mobile as compared to other top brands at this price, it is good, let me share some more reviews after two three months.

                        Well-rounded everyday electric ride
                        A relative recommended this model when I was looking for an EV. I had already seen ads on Facebook, so I checked it out. The modern LED setup, wide seat, and smart console give it a premium feel at a good price. The ride has been reliable and comfortable. I'm getting close to 110 km per charge with mixed city riding. It accelerates smoothly, has an excellent digital interface, and the lightweight feel makes it easy for anyone at home to use.
