      office going
      Best bike for office goings, not for day to day activities like shopping of stuff, buying milk, and monthly groceries, cylinder carrying is tough, but best for only going to office, gives the best mileage, costed me around 1500 for full month, i travel around 20-25 km daily.

      I love this bike
      I will buy this bike, this bike is my dream middle-class For people this bike style and colour comfort seat no.1 The Honda Unicorn 160 is not a bike that will win you over with its looks or features, but it's a bike that will win you over with its performance. It's the quintessential sensible commuter motorcycle. If your priorities are a battery smooth engine, exceptional comfort, low running costs, and unmatched reliability, the Unicorn 160 is one of the best choices you can make. It's a bike for the mature rider who values substance over style. However, if you're looking for a motorcycle that stands out from the crowd and is packed with the latest technology, you might want to consider its rivals.
