I am riding avenger since 2009 200cc DTSi.
Advantages:
1) the only entry level option in cruiser segment,
2) good looks.
Disadvantages:
1) Very high maintenance( frequent parts breakdown like clutch wire, speedometer wire, indicators etc),
2) rear brakes never worked properly over last 4 years( even after changing break shoes etc) only managing with front brakes, service people say its like this only, so if you are driving at speed of 60+ and just using rear brakes will take miles to stop( I know its an exaggeration but still I would prefer saying this),
3) pillion rider seat is not comfortable at all,
4) chrome parts easily gets rusted(probably they are like that only), 5) not satisfied with service-almost every time I have to go again after service,
6) charge too much premium for insurance( Jai Bajaj) at the time of purchase( may everybody does that)
