            Over all good at performance
            It's good bike with good efficiency and mileage. You can use this for long time use. Proper air cooling. Best bike for long drive. It makes you feel so comfortable. You will enjoy the throttling. Feels smooth. Premium category and very under rated one.I suggest everyone to buy this bases on my experience

            Apache rtr 180 review
            Overall experience good but city mileage very low only 35 in chennai. 80k run in native salem i achieved 46 mileage but in chennai it is very low. Plastic bodies get dull after 50k.Overall looks and bike looking good. Small size bike and riding feels vibration after 50 speed. Double disc feels good compare to drum.

            Best for City rides
            Apache RTR 180 is a powerful bike for city traffic and quick pick up while overtaking other vehicles. Pickup performance is good even in high speed. In lower rpm the bike vibrates a bit. Braking is also good. For long rides it's not suitable. Best for city commute and short trips within 100kms. For long rides it will be pain in the ass, need to stop at every 50kms

            I’ve been using the Honda
            I’ve been using the Honda Unicorn for a while now, and it’s been a solid ride. It’s not a super bike, but it’s perfect for a family person like me. The comfort level is great, especially for daily commuting and family rides. The mileage is good, and it handles well on both city roads and highways. If you’re looking for a reliable, practical bike that’s easy to manage, the Honda Unicorn is definitely a great choice.

            Premium Economy
            Honda unicorn has been popular choice for riders in India for many years. It is very fuel efficient. Its smooth and powerful engine is too good and is as required. The suspension is well tuned according to Indian roads. It is an very economical option for daily use. But one problem is with design and it also don't have digital instrument cluster.
