          Pros & Cons

          • Pros
          • Cons
          • Bajaj Avenger Cruise 220

            • The riding position is very comfortable and offers a good experience
            • Has a proper cruiser look and that too at an affordable price
            • Engine is refined and makes munching miles on the highway a good experience

            Jawa 42

            • Motor feels a lot more usable, with the torque spread evenly across the rev range. This helps in riding at moderate speeds at a gear higher, which wasn’t possible earlier
            • Improved overall quality, with good attention-to-detail elements like logo on the rim stickers
            • Is one of the lightest in segment, so moving around in traffic of tight parking spaces is easy
          • Bajaj Avenger Cruise 220

            • Misses out on modern features like smartphone connectivity and navigation
            • Brakes could have been better with more bite
            • The turning radius is massive due to the raked out front

            Jawa 42

            • The wide, low handlebars along with the high footpegs give off an unnatural riding posture
            • Stiff suspension results in the rider being thrown off while going over sharp bumps

            Overall review of Avenger
            If you're someone who loves to travel long distances then this bike is the king. Milaege :- 40kmpl average Comfort :- good comfort but with custom seat its even better. Riding posture :- it gives true cruiser riding posture , you wouldn't feel tired even after long rides. My dad has spinal and cervical issues but still he goes on long rides twice a year and this bike never makes your back hurt. Cons :- service of bajaj is bad , it depends on the service centre but i have visited 4 different S.c in delhi ncr and my experience was bad. So have an after market guy who can service your bike.

            About jawa42
            I'm loving the classic modern design of the Jawa 42! 🤩 The twin exhaust adds a touch of retro charm. Plus, the high pickup and top speed make it a blast to ride. It's perfect for long rides with its impressive mileage and reliable brakes. Anyone else a fan of this beauty? #Jawa42 #Motorcycle #ClassicModern

            Bike is in exceptional good condition as less driven by me. I had to move to banglore this didn’t get much time to drive it. I have full service record till date of timely maintenance. If you are looking for a bike which is very less driven than this is the chance to grab it as early as possible. Price is negotiable but not too much.

            Good looking and heavy performance , above average comfort, design can be modified, more dashing with double silencer and many more. Two people can comfortably sit. It have a good price but not so much features and exhaust note is also poor in comparison to hunter 350 still having double silencer . So it totally depends upon u
