            Review after a year.
            Excellent low cost maintenance and powerfull engine bike. Bought 160 4v Mate black special edition a year ago. So many long rides on. Vijayawada to Kodaikanal non stop ride 1100km almost and Kodaikanal to Vijayawada non stop almost 1100km. 24 hours with short breaks. And also drove from Andhrapradesh Vijayawada to Mumbai 1050km non stop 21 hours and Mumbai to Vijayawada same hours with short breaks. Peak performance, perfect balance, best milage with. Not even change tyres till date almost 15000km run. Not even one puncher for tyres till now powerfull tyres. I will definitely recommend it for long rides. One negative is its mono channel ABS at front. When I purchased this TVS did not even release Duel ABS in 1604v very disappointed after it's released in Duel channel ABS. It released 3 to 4 months after my purchase. Very very disappointed. TVS need stop this kind of things. If they release Duel channel ABS in 160 4v at the beginning the sale of this bike will be sky rocketing.

            Awesome bike looks and comfort. Riding experience nice but some need to change in pulsar like chain set not good of bajaj bike after 20000 km need toh change and also service centres not good not provide any kind of support. After sale service not good if you mentain bike without service center so it's a nice bike
