This bike deserve everything right to me.The Bajaj Avengers have grown in strength. This family of urban cruisers from Bajaj Auto now includes the Cruise 220, the Street 220 and the new Street 150. The last two add city riding dynamics to the cruiser range. We rode the Cruise 220 and the Street 150 to check out what these bikes had to offer.
The Bajaj Avenger gets styling cues which are true to its name, with a new handlebar with the new Avenger badging on the fuel tank’s sides and some shiny chrome all around. The 17-inch front and the 15-inch spoke wheels in the rear add to the bling quotient and there’s even a new chrome cover for the oil cooler. The contoured seats look comfortable with the extra foam but I do wish it was a bit wider for more under-thigh support. The cruiser look is complete with an optional large windshield on the front and a pillion backrest.
Smartly priced at ? 75, 000 for the Street 150 and ? 84, 000 for the Cruise/Street 220, the new Avengers are now bigger, stronger and a tad bolder with the overall package better than ever before. No wonder Bajaj’Feels Like God’ in this urban cruiser segment.
