                  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।

                  The Value of the Durability and features & efforts
                  The unicorn bike was famous with the smooth touch and good performance, the mileage was good in the city area and also good for long ride in the highway, comfort and sitting is best for long ride.

My long trip with my best bike that is unicorn 160 cc around 1350 km, on road the performance is good, mileage increased with around 50 to 55 km per litre and pickup of the bike is to much wow with great features. I have been riding the Unicorn Honda bike for a long time. I love its comfortable ride accross the long drive or india tour, seating, mileage is good, smooth and performance with low cost maintainance.

                  Over all good bike and also it's all versions
                  Riding quality is too good. Very huge and look is too brilliant. Just 155 cc but still beat any 200 cc bike. Engine is too reliable. Average is very good compare to other bikes. It gives me 40km per litre mileage and this is too good because it's a sports bike and still it give 40 kmpl mileage. I like it.

                  A good sports bike
                  This bike is meant for our age group especially for age group between 18 to 25 years. Going for long drive on this bike will feel like participating in bike race as pick is so good and balance is also very good. Pick up of this bike is very good and you will not feel tired after having long drives. And balance of this bike is very phenomenal and due to which chances of skidding is very less even on slippery roads. Yes, I recommend this bike specially for youngsters who like to ride a racing bike. This has amazing pick up and drives smoothly even on mud and bumpy roads. Though the mileage is low and drives smoothly.

                  The best bike of segment
                  Its a stylish bike. Very good looking and powerful with a muscular body and heavy duty. I love the bike since beginning, my dream bike and very solid bike. Better in every aspect in mileage, great in looks and performance. It's very sharp looking and comfortable for long rides also a good mileage provider, good acceleration and pickup, fast, smooth, tension free riding and less maintenance bike for sure. In this price range, it's the best. The best bike. I would definitely recommend to young guys, not for old grandpa's, it gonna make you feel royal and elegant, very strong presence and that's why I am recommending this bike to all of my friends.
