                  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.

                  Overall I am totally satisfied by this bike
                  This is the best bike according to my experience as I am a student so I wish a bike by which cost me less fuel and less maintenance also other than this bike fix my requirement and also this bike is in my budget. Ride is very comfortable and as 160 cc bike in delivers the performance us expected. Sometimes it delivers more performance then you expect like the highway experience and the city ride are very comfortable. Yes, I will recommend this bike to the boys of my age who wants the bike in this budget like in this budget. This bike is a perfect bike to go for and I would specially recommend to the boys who go to their colleges.

                  KALA GHODA
                  I choose Honda unicorn because of refined engine. Comfortable wide seat, good suspension, good mileage. And it's reputation in market. KALA GHODA is not a just bike it's emotion.

                  The review of unicorn
                  First i want a bike to be comfortable and reliable for long distances and unicorn delivery it definitely. Because I go to work daily and i never felt back pain or anything it's very comfortable and i really love to ride it. The ride is very good and comfortable but I hate to say that the bike has very bad heating issue from engine. In summers your legs gonna feel the heat expect that everything is totally fine and overall good. I definitely recommend the bike but I know it's a little bit pricey than others at this range but it gonna deliver every ruppee you spend. If you someone like me who lives in a village i definitely recommend you to buy this bike because it handles every pothole or speed breaks smoothly and it goes very well in muddy road also. The suspension is good and the efficiency is good not very good compared to others but it's okay. The service is also good just go for it.

                  Unicorn review
                  Its a family friendly bike gives a very good mileage and also has a decent engine and the engine is also very reliable engine I have completed 2 lakh kilometres with this bike but the engine is still fine. The design of the bike is not that great should be launched in new stylish versions like the new editions of glamour it design should be made more sportier and stylish so that it can match today's market Demands. If you want good mileage for daily short rides inside the city or intercity rides you should buy this its a good choice for a normal corporate guy for going to office everyday and also a good choice for small families.
