                • Cons
                • 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

                  TVS Ronin

                  • Top variant is packed with features
                  • Solid build and attention to detail
                  • Strong low-end torque that suits city riding
                  • Comfortable ergonomics for extended journeys
                • Bajaj Pulsar N160

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

                  TVS Ronin

                  • Highway performance
                  • Braking could use more bite
                  • Some design elements don’t blend seamlessly
                  • Doesn’t offer the thrill of TVS’s sportier bikes

                  Best bike in this segment..
                  Bike is very smooth in city as well as highways. It has very comfortable seat and posturing with a good mileage and smooth and refined engine. Bike is overall good by looks and performance in the segment of 160cc. I ride the bike 400km in once and it is very smooth and no vibration in handle and refined engine with soothing performance. I only stop bike for half an hour after crossing 250kms and bike is overall perfect for far journey by bike. I would like to recommend this bike to office employees who want a stable bike also mileage, performance, and good engine with a genuine budget and for family bike, it is good. This bike has it own craze in youth who want sporty bike in low budget as it is a fast commuter bike.

                  superb bike in this segment
                  Best cc bike in this segment. it has nice pickup. its a horse, exhaust note is just amazing, best bike for college students. Public reaction is crazy after seeing this bike. It is 225 cc bike but it gives mileage of 40 kmpl is crazy man, the pillion seat is more comfortable and specially the riding posture after all, best bike by the looks and features.

                  TVS Ronin: Style Meets Struggle
                  Looks comfortable for daily commute of 140- 150 km. TVS Ronin offers 225 cc engine with good mileage of 40 kmpl, stunning looks which makes the heads turn, royal and comfy feel without compromising on city ride quality and oil cooling for better engine efficiency. Ride is smooth, punchy, confident and feels agile, makes you confident while riding but struggles in corners because of TVS tyres which lacks grip, comfort and art of cornering. The whole setup looks balanced for the price hence can't complain for that. Yes, I would recommend this bike if you are a person who can spend more on cost of ownership, the service center work is little bad, if you can tackle them thats on you because I have been doing the same, just to put your point, you have to complain otherwise they do not take you seriously specially the centers in small cities like Dewas, MP.
