Racing edition
The bikes are perfect of this varient but its racing addition can also come in glossy black edition as users also want it in glossy black because it shines and gives a macho look but with the matte black it looks so shuttle and dim there is also one upgrade tvs should give in it is a 6 speed gear box

That was a amazing bike
That was a amazing bike as a model but in reality the initial pickup was not on that level and the top speed also not on that level. I love the safety system like abs. I was so curious about the braking system of the bike and it satisfied me . The look of the bike is so amazing in that price segment

Worth for money...
The best stylish variant bike. Very stylish and good safety level. Low maintenance cost bike which had used.Good mileage and good pickup in sporty look..The white colour is looks classy like older and the modes of riding is useful in city traffic. The LED lights are good to visible in night time in traffic also.

All About Mileage
There are too much controversy on the mileage of n160 .I am a owner of that bike it's give me 38 - 40 kmpl .. milaga which is not decent cause showroom claim that the coustomer have 50+ mileage on that bike so that's very disappointing. And on the the highway the mileage goes down below to the 30 approx.

Good for City Riding.
Good for City Riding. Mileage is decent, pillion seat is not that much comfortable, initial pickup is slightly low, sensors are good, Bluetooth connectivity with mobile is only active if the app is running, Bike Service is not much good, not suitable for those who want to speed, both front and rear tyres are good

Perfect for this price but seat is a little hard.
The seat is not that soft and not that comfortable for long ride but overall performance and looks are great worth buying, breaks and suspension of KYB is also great.
