                  Raider review
                  It is better than others in terms of looks and mileage. However, sometimes it feels expensive due to maintenance costs. Gear shifting can also be difficult at times, and the ground clearance is insufficient for two people sitting on the bike, especially when crossing speed breakers.

                  Bike is best for city riding but gets little aching for longer rides, above 70kmpl significant vibrations can be felt everything else is very good including mileage, maintainance, features, screen, maneourability, power, pickup etc i have tried this bike in almost all terrains and I am satisfied with whatever they are providing at this price point.

                  POWER PERFOMANCE
                  Yes ofcourse! I've used 3 Honda Unicorns one after the other over a period of 10 consecutive years and that itself reflects on my confidence and pride in owning a Honda Unicorn! Easily recommend it to bike lovers especially the younger set.

                  मुझे डेली आने जाने के लिए बेस्ट बाइक लगा
                  लंबे सफर के लिए बेस्ट है और पावर अच्छा मिलता हैं, कम बजट में 160 का इंजन है और क्या चाहिए, बढ़िया है भाई मेंटेनेंस का खर्चा कम, कही भी स्पीयर पार्ट मिल जाता है, कंफर्ट बढ़िया है, कीमत अच्छी है, दूसरे 160cc मुकाबले होंडा यूनिकॉर्न सस्ती है, कोई भी खरीद सकते है, फैमिली के लिए बेस्ट बाइक है, कोलिटी बेस्ट है।

                  Manufacturing defect, painting not ok rust within 1 year, noise issue, fitting not given proper, pickup issues,lots of maintenance for 160ccbike, cain sprocket, brake plate, clutch plate, tyre issue, suspension front fork conical set issue, suspension not ok for back pain, I took bike for suspension and speed but bike is very unstable not like unicorn, Honda have to improve thier quality.
