                  Honda SP 160 – Honest Review after 27000 kms
                  Well i wanted a bike for commuting which offer a reliable engine with little sporty looks and good mileage, which can offer a smooth suspensions on highways and city. The bike offers a good value of the price in segment Travelled around 27000 km in 2 .5 years the suspension seems to be good until now but the bike surely feels under power for the 160 segment, handling is good. Even as a commuter bike it still performed very well on off-road and gave a smooth ride across my long tours with pillion. But as I got the first slot of bike it seems after some time some parts of bike have been changed and a throttle seems little on harder side . So overall being commuter bike it performs fantansic but just being under power for sure If ur purpose is just to go and fro from office it's an wonderful bike , but as 160 cc is having multiple options, if ur looking for more power u must avoid it , and if ur looking for reliable engine with low cost maintenance surely go for it

                  Bike comfort is good .
                  160 unicorn reliable same engine with fuel pump upgrade.. I don't need to look another bike I have drove 85k my last bike unicorn 160... Now I upgraded to sp160.. it's a powerful then previous model looks are good... I think distance between handle and rider is a little far for this segment... when I'm starting mostly taking while to get ready after a break. Last speedo meter has been updated.. i like the bike.. mileage is cool Engine it's a good, comfort is good.. Head light is v poor i suggest honda should give 160 a halogen or powerful headlight it's a request... I love riding this bike both on highway and city as well...

                  Honda sp160 after 30k+ KM
                  I choose sp160 because little sport look with more comfortable for family rides and within a budget. And I wanted more reliable Engine. I thought this comfortable and fit in the budget. And also in the consideration of mileage. Till now it was a good bike and more comfortable. But the service from the honda is not up to the mark. Just wasting the money on service center. Apart from service bike provides reasonable power and smooth riding. If you're considering a bike for family and also for a little long rides it is good option. For the engine and power with 160 cc it's a good option. No need to worry much about the comfortable this provides a smooth ride.

                  splendor is the first choice of every indian middle class family.
                  After owning this bike for than 3 years , I feel that its very good about mileage, comfort, and riding posture . It's a very low maintenance bike , service costs are also very low. If you get full tank petrol in this bike you don't have get petrol for 1 month it take out a massive mileage. In India this bike is first choice for the middle class families. I also own this bike and doesn't have any complaint about it.

                  Everyday Reliability with Hero Splendor Plus XTEC
                  A friend’s night ride idea made me plan the same, and it actually felt nice. This bike handles city roads calmly, doesn’t feel tiring, and keeps short trips easy. Weekend outings feel more relaxed, and even small store runs stay smooth. We wanted something steady for city lanes and small weekend plans. This bike feels comfortable and doesn’t trouble you in traffic. Quick turns, short breaks, and small detours all feel natural. Good for couples who like short peaceful rides. Great option for people who want a practical ride for daily movement. Works well in tight streets and doesn’t feel annoying on short trips. Weekend outings stay simple, and every ride feels manageable without extra effort or stress.
