                • Pros
                • Cons
                • Yamaha FZS-FI V3

                  • Muscular design and chunky tank extensions give the FZ a big bike appeal
                  • Despite looking big, the FZ is very lightweight and handles really well
                  • Engine is very fuel efficient and gives good mileage for a bike in the 150cc segment

                  Bajaj Pulsar N160

                  • Great handling - changes direction quickly, feels stable when leaned too
                  • Riding posture, although a bit sporty, is quite comfortable
                  • One of the few bikes in the 160cc segment to get dual-channel ABS
                  • Powerful and smooth engine
                • Yamaha FZS-FI V3

                  • Switchgear quality feels quite basic and not what you’d expect at this price point
                  • Misses out on features like turn-by-turn navigation
                  • Headlight doesn’t have the desired output and doesn’t do a good job of illuminating the road ahead

                  Bajaj Pulsar N160

                  • Looks very similar to the smaller Pulsar N150
                  • Rear suspension setup feels a bit uncomfortable, especially on sharp bumps

                  Comfort and strong service network
                  I chose this bike because I had a friend who had a different brand but recommended checking this model due to its comfort and service network. I liked that the service centres were many and parts likely accessible, so I felt confident. My experience has been positive. I have had no major failures and service visits have been smooth. I do regular maintenance and the bike has returned steady performance. One wet evening ride surprised me by how stable the bike felt. The ride continues to make me happy. Yes, I’d recommend this model if you value worry‑free ownership and good after‑sales support. It may not be the fastest out there but if you want a solid, comfortable, reliable bike for city and some open roads, this is a good bet.

                  Good showroom deal and color
                  I picked this bike because I wanted a brand new bike after years of renting and I liked the showroom deal. The colour I wanted was in stock and the dealer was friendly so I bought. It felt like the right moment. My ride so far has been joyous. I enjoy the novelty of new bike feel, the fresh paint, the quiet engine. I’ve taken it to weekend morning rides with friends and felt part of the biking crowd. The handling is nimble and the seat comfortable. It has been a pleasant upgrade for me. Yes I strongly recommend this bike to first‑time buyers or those upgrading from older bikes. It gives the feel of a new machine, decent comfort, good style and usable performance. If your daily ride is important and you want a bike that fits in easily, go for this.

                  Low vibration for smooth ride
                  I chose this bike because I once had bike that vibrated too much and made my arms sore after ide. I wanted smoother experience and I read reviews that this bike is refined with low vibration. That was important. Riding has indeed been smoother than expected. I notice less shake at moderate speeds and the engine hum is gentle. After a one‑hour ride I feel fresh rather than tired. I still respect it and maintain it, but so far the low vibration claim holds true for me. Yes I would say yes, purchase if refinement and comfort matter to you. It may not blast off like high performance bikes but for daily cruising and moderate trips it delivers. If you value comfort over raw power then you’ll be satisfied with this bike.

                  Comfortable for two riders
                  I picked this bike because I wanted something comfortable for two persons (me and my spouse) and this model offered a wide seat and upright handle. I saw an edition with a brown‑seat special version and that sealed the deal. I liked the pillion comfort too. My experience riding with my spouse has been nice. We did a 100‑km countryside loop and neither of us felt uncomfortable. The ride was steady, the wind didn’t buffet much and the seat did its job. In city rides the bike sits upright and is easy to ride. The motor runs smooth and I feel safe. Yes, I’d recommend this bike especially for those who ride with pillion regularly or for city plus weekend use. It gives space and comfort for two, runs reliably and looks decent. If you want a practical bike that also looks good, this ticks many boxes.

                  Smooth handling for city rides
                  I chose this bike because one of my neighbours had it and praised its smooth handling. I tested it and found I could manoeuvre easily in tight lanes in our city. That convinced me. Also the design looked tidy and not too crazy, so I felt it suited my daily use. Riding has been smooth, pleasurable and low stress. I avoid big highways but on whatever road I travel the bike performs well. Brakes feel responsive and gear shifts are light. I once took a turn on wet road and the bike handled it without drama. The ride quality is good. Definitely yes I would recommend to someone who uses bike for daily commuting and occasional weekend rides. It suits urban roads and moderate rides. If you expect top speed or racetrack style thrills maybe there are other bikes, but for everyday use this is a smart pick.

                  Comfortable, Safe & Value-Packed Choice
                  This bike clicks for me just after riding a test. It seems sophisticated and the seating area is not very aggressive which is good for long rides. Displays and characteristics are modern. I also liked dual AB as security matters. After checking some other bikes, it looked like the best value for money. Been riding the Pulsar N160 for 5 months now and I enjoy every ride. It is comfortable for long distances and does not heat much. The design is eye catcher and I often get praise. I think it is a value for money and good for both city and highway. I would recommend Pulsar N160 to those who want a sporty yet practical bike, it looks great and has decent power for both the city and the highway, I get a mileage of about 45 kmpl which is fine for me, gear shifts are smooth and the riding posture is comfortably using it every day and it does not seem to be boring every day.

                  Practical Sporty Bike with Reliable Engine
                  I went to Pulsar N160 because I was still looking for something practical sporty. It has a new form and a reliable engine. I first used Bajaj bike and they were always easy to maintain. The performance of this bike in both the city and the highway is really good and I had to go for it. I use N160 for daily office commute and sometimes weekend ride. The engine is refined and there is no vibration at even more than 80 speeds. The brakes work well and it looks safe. Honestly, it was not expected that it would be good. Happy with my choice. Yes, I would ask my friends to go for this that if they want a mixture of performance and style, I have taken it on long trips and also used it to come daily and it performs well that the seating place is comfortable and the suspension handles bad streets.

                  Balanced Performance with Modern Design
                  I chose this bike because of the way I felt this bike while riding its new design and riding. I drive some bikes, but N160 felt more balanced and smooth. The ride posture is comfortable for daily use and the engine has a good pickup. Apart from this, Bajaj has a good service near my area which helped in my decision. Recently bought N160 and I am really impressed. The handling is sharp and it also looks stable at high speed. The suspension for bad roads is quite soft. I mostly use it for daily rides and it never disappoints. Overall a very balanced bike. Definitely yes, I bought this bike 6 months ago and I am really happy that it gives a sporty feeling, but it is still easy to manage braking and the engine is also smooth. I ride most of the city and it has never given me any problem.
