Whoops......Didn't come across this thread and posted a new one.....
Well, I own an avenger 180...06 model, I have modded it a bit, K&N filters...Performance exhaust.............Stickering...LOL
Overall I am Happy with the performance of the bike...
Happy coz it runs quite faster than the stock avenger when given the whip, And If ridden under sane frame of mind.....Gives 40 kmpl..

Not much happening on this thread. Is there some other thread where the Avenger 200 owners are having discussions on their motorcycles/ problems they face? If so, could someone kindly link me to that thread? Thanks.

well i've got my avenger since aug 2006... n its been a darling thru all these days... it's never given any serious problems.. just a few minor problems which i believe are common to all bikes... i've taken it on just three long trips till now.. once dehradun, then to musoorie via rishikesh n once to fatehpur sikri... i just wish if bajaj could have made it a bit more powerful.. u knw.. to get the real feel of a cruiser

Default Avenger ownership experience

Hi,

I have been using a silver coloured avenger with 180 cc engine for the last three years. Its a comfortable bike and returns an average of 38-40 Kmpl in day to day traffic. Unlike the comments i got when i purchased the bike, it is very easy to drive in crowded traffic except for taking U-turn!!

The back brake is not good enough for a bike of this bulk and low end torque is found wanting. But the gear shift has been a dream so far and on open roads its a very comfy, value for money cruiser. The rear shocks are not good enough esp when you have a pillion rider (who will no wonder curse you). The maintenance cost is also surprisingly low and the Bajaj probiking showroom in Kochi / Cochin where i am based out at the moment have been very customer friendly. Overall a good ownership experience. I am waiting for the Pulsar 200 FI to be launched so that i can graduate back to a sports bike.

My friend is planning to buy the Avenger 200. Please give me feedback on the following:
1. Ride quality for the pillion
2. Chain maintenance
3. Oil leakages
4. Most importantly silencer&other chrome parts rusting.
