                  Great bike but poor seats.
                  For fat tyres, good stability, economic good looking city commuter. Bought in 2020 still using it. Though modified the seat cushion as per usage. Great looking bike since launched till now. I loved the profile at first look. I have the fzs v3 version. It's good overall bike. Bulky body fat tires look great. Seating is average for both pillion and rider. I would put it as a good city commuter. But not made for long rides. If the seats were better it would have been a king. Try the seats and a long drive above 30km first to settle down with this bike. Everything except the seat cushion is great. Yes for city drives definitely recommend for performance safety & mileage. But check seats first.

                  Good vehicle
                  Everything is good, but not suitable for family due to rear seat is not comfortable for ladies, otherwise performance of vehicle is excellent. Vehicle stability is good, Tcs control is good, Abs is excellent, Tyres condition is good, DRL is excellent, electricals are good, driving comfort is too good. Service cost is reliable. Overall nice experience witht this bike.

                  Perfect family vehicle with 55+ mileage
                  The vehicle is very good, and it's mileage is also excellent. It gives 50+ kmpl in the city and goes upto 55 kmpl on the highway the maintenance cost is low and this vehicle has never given me any problem also the seating comfort is very good. For a family the vehicle is an excellent choice. The engine of Yamaha bike is also very good.

                  More than 10 K customers have bought this bike.
                  At this range, as compared to other bikes this bike is too good. The breaking at 100/120 is also too good. It does not wobble at that speed too while breaking. Bike also looks too good. That's why I choose this bike. The feel while riding this bike was better. As this was my first bike, it's very easy for the beginners to learn on it (if able to handle the weight of bike). Does not decrease the mileage after servicing. If ur cost range is 150 k - 170 k this is very good bike. The clutch is also not too hard too handle. Engine (149cc) is also smooth with Smart Motor Generator (SMG) assist. Handling is also good. I will always recommend this bike. If your expense is more than this bike I will recommend other bikes.

                  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.
