                  Go for it , It's a good bike
                  Good pickup, stylish design as the colour combination looks futuristic. TVS is a big brand, so service is very good and easy to find. Built quality is also one of the good reason to pickup this bike. It gives great experience. The range is a big concern while going to college. Except that, everything is very good like the pickup while overtaking vehicles, durability during pot-holes and a suspension works good. Yes, If you are looking for good service, take a look of this, may be the price and range doesn't match but the service and experience is very good. So I recommend this bike for short range travellers who don't want ot take risk.

                  My Orbitor experience
                  I just wanted to reduce my fuel cost which was about Rs.2500-3000 per month, Navigation feature of this machine as I can track my son's position while he is driving. Its suspension gives the great comfort ride. I have riding Orbitor almost 1000Km in one month, its cruise mode is good, because of accelerator sometimes hand suffer a lot but cruise mode make rides really easy specially on highway. CITY mode is powerful but quick battery consumer. Yes, I have recommended many of my friends, one of my friend daily travel around 100km range and I told him to buy this as it will cut down his fuel cost. Moreover, now we need to shift in green because of harm to environment.

                  ORBITER - The Best scooter to buy in 2026.
                  Motor and looks are very impressive. This is my first electric scooter and I am very much satisfied. Got a good assistance from showroom as well. Scooter ride is very smooth and tyre size looks good as well. Ride is very impressive till today, I took v1 version and sometimes facing problem with range of I have to ride for long. Handling is very impressive and colours combination is very funky. Love this bike till now. Yes I will definitely recommend this scooter looking at the price bucket and the features. A big competitors of rizta and I think this would be on the higher side to that. Better go for version V2 for better range.

                  This bike is from a highly reputed brand which is the main reason for it to be choosen. Secondly, I have also bought TVS IQube earlier so I came back, And best part is the mobile charging slot nearby. Highly comfortable and smooth ride with perfect speed hold and pickup as required. Felt like in air with no jerks or bumps. Very easy handling and can be fixed by anyone easily without any complexity. Highly recommended as it is highly price effective and nature efficient also. It's lights look awesome and it's spacious under seat storage and display screen make it so special as compared to others.

                  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.
