Bajaj Avenger Cruise 220 Summary

Bajaj Auto has updated its flagship cruiser motorcycle, the Avenger Cruise 220 to comply with the newest emission norms. The BS6 upgrade on the Avenger Cruise 220 is limited to mechanical upgrades. The styling cues, on the other hand, remain unaltered, and the Avenger Cruise 220 BS6 continues to feature a typical cruiser motorcycle design with low-slung saddle, rear-swept handlebar, a windscreen at the front and a long wheelbase. The 3D logo, chrome treatment to various parts and wire-spoke wheels add a premium touch to the overall package. Similar to the styling, the hardware on the BS6 model remains similar to the BS4 motorcycle. Thus, shock absorption duties are handled by telescopic forks with double anti-friction bush at the front and five-step adjustable twin springs at the back. Anchoring power comes from a 280mm disc at the front and a 130mm drum brake at the rear. The safety net on the motorcycle includes single-channel ABS. Mechanical upgrades bring a fuel-injection system to the 220cc, single-cylinder, oil-cooled, twin-spark, SOHC motor that now produces 18.7bhp of power at 8,500rpm and 17.5Nm of peak torque at 7,000rpm. The engine is linked to a five-speed gearbox. The closest rival to the Bajaj Avenger Cruise 220 is the Suzuki Intruder, which retails at Rs 1,20,000 (ex-showroom Delhi). The Avenger Cruise 220 BS6 packs better performance numbers while retailing at a relatively lower price tag than the 155cc Suzuki cruiser motorcycle.

I want to sell my bike because I have already 2 more two-wheelers that's why the bike's condition is very good only 10700 km driven. I am the first owner of the bike. The bike is very comfortable for driving in the city and on highways. The only cons I felt were that height is quite low for tall people otherwise it's a good package.

Avenger 220, 2011 model. Almost 12 years of experience daily riding. Sometimes long tour. The Longest tour was about 880 km. Awesome experience. Never made me down. Still running well and in good condition. Change Oil every 5000 km to 8000 km or 6 months. And regular service. Look awesome. Best for short-height people.

Overall good package and probably the best yields on the term “value for money”. I have used it in the city and also used it as a single - one way 1300 km long ride; in plain as well as hilly areas; in traffic and on highway roads; always proved to be quite comfortable and reliable ( because maintained well). My love for this bike is always incriminating with each additional experience with it.

Time to time maintenance from authorised dealer will help in maintaining reliability and comfort as new.

Pros: Value for money. Avenger never breaks your trust. Comfortable for pillion riders and older people. Pocket-friendly in terms of mileage and bike cost. For long tours, it is super comfortable. Cons: Steering in mountain curves. Spoke wheels and tube-type wheels are a discomfort. Missing the kick start as in between a tour if the battery gets dead. It's tough to start if you are on a solo trip.

I will suggest to change the spokes to alloy and have a tubeless tyres where I suffered the most.

Bajaj Avenger 220 Review

Detailed review by maxabout team.

The Bajaj Avenger Cruise 220 has established itself as one of India's most reasonably priced cruiser motorcycles. One of the most distinguishing features of the Bajaj Avenger Cruise 220 is its comfortable seating posture and powerful yet reliable engine, which is backed up by Bajaj's extensive service network. Bajaj recently updated the Bajaj Avenger Cruise 220 with a BS6 avatar to comply with India's strict emission norms. Except for mechanical upgrades, the BS6 version of the Avenger Cruise 220 has brought some significant changes to the cruiser bike.

Bajaj Avenger 220 Cruise Design and Style

2024 Bajaj Avenger Cruise 220's styling is inspired by large cruisers such as Harley Davidson. It has a vintage Cruiser vibe to it and has a symmetrical body. Its large windscreen is appealing and because of its telescopic fork at break angle, it has a cruiser appearance. The radiator, horn, exhaust, front and rear turn signals, mirror, and area near the pillion seat all have a lot of chrome on this Avenger Cruise 220. It's so shiny in the sunlight because it's made of so much chrome. The fuel tank contributes to the cruiser look; the way it flares out forms a teardrop shape, and it is topped with a large chrome piece that includes a tell-tale light, a fuel filler cap, and a minimalistic instrument cluster that is fully digitally situated above the chrome piece. It has a single-piece long seat with a backrest for the pillion seat, which is comfortable and adequate.

Bajaj Avenger 220 Cruise Engine and Gearbox

2024 Bajaj Avenger Cruise 220's engine is comparable to that of the well-known Pulsar 220F. The Bajaj Avenger Cruise 220 is powered by a 220cc DTS-i engine with fuel injection that produces 19.03 HP at 8500 rpm and 17.55 Nm at 7000 rpm. The Bajaj Avenger Cruise 220's BS6-compliant engine is mated to a five-speed gearbox, which is the same old five-speed unit gearbox. It travels in a straight line with ease, but it does not lean quickly or change directions smoothly.

Bajaj Avenger 220 Cruise Suspension, Brakes and Tyres

The tubular double-cradle frame supports the new Bajaj Avenger Cruise 220. It has telescopic forks with double anti-friction brushes at the front and hydraulic type 5-step adjustable twin shock-absorbers at the rear for suspension duties. The Cruise 220 has a single-channel ABS system with a 280mm disc in front and a 130mm drum in the back. The travel of the rear suspension has been increased by 12% for 2018, resulting in better ride quality on Indian roads. The 17-inch front and 15-inch rear spoke wheels are fitted with 90-section and 130-section tyres, respectively.

Instrument Console of Bajaj Avenger 220 Cruise

The instrument cluster is a fully digital unit that displays the speedometer, odometer, trip metre, and a slew of other useful data. The Avenger Cruise 220 lacks a few features for a motorcycle that looks as poised as this one. The primary instrument cluster is circular and fully digital, and it contains a wealth of data that allows the rider to make informed decisions while on the road or at a stop. The lack of a tachometer makes it impossible for the rider to determine which RPM he or she is currently at, which is inconvenient. There is also a secondary display panel with warning lights (indicators, high beam, neutral, ABS, and low battery warning). However, its functionality is jeopardised due to its disorganised placement on the fuel tank.

Key Features of Bajaj Avenger 220 Cruise

2024 Bajaj Avenger 220 Cruise is designed in the same manner as the other members of the Avenger bike family. Because this is the Cruise model, it has a large windshield, a lot of chrome, and spoke rims. Unlike the Avenger 160, the Avenger 220 Cruise has a fully digital instrument cluster with an odometer, trip metre, clock, fuel gauge, and service due reminder. There are a few telltale lights on the tank's panel. Even though it has LED DRLs, the headlight is still a bulb unit. However, the included braking mechanism works well and gives the rider confidence. For improved stability and control, there are front disc brakes with single-channel ABS, anti-friction tubeless tyres, and a wide rear radial tubeless tyre.

Top Speed and Mileage of Bajaj Avenger 220 Cruise

2024 Bajaj Avenger 220 Cruise has a top speed of 120 km/h and a mileage of 40 km/l. In terms of performance, it can accelerate from 0 to 60 km/h within 5 seconds approximately and 0 to 100 within 13 seconds approximately.

Bajaj Avenger 220 Cruise Colour Options

Bajaj offers the new Avenger 220 Cruise Bike in 2 different colours namely Moon White and Auburn Black.

Bajaj Avenger 220 Cruise Competitors

The Top competitors for Bajaj Avenger Cruise 220 are Royal Enfield Bullet 350, Bajaj Avenger Street 160, JAWA Forty Two, Kawasaki Z650 RS, BMW R NineT Scrambler, Benelli Imperiale 400, Royal Enfield Meteor 350, Honda Hness CB350, and JAWA Perak.

2024 Avenger Cruise 220 is the ideal motorcycle for a daily city commuter who enjoys getting out on the highway on the weekends. In the city, however, this motorcycle is not the easiest to manoeuvre in tight spaces, but the comfort it provides more than compensates. The Avenger Cruise 220 is also a capable family motorcycle with excellent pillion comfort. The low cost of service and ease of maintenance add to the appeal of purchasing this motorcycle. This motorcycle's generously slathered chrome and impressive fit and finish give it a premium look that's sure to draw attention wherever you go.

Totally Actual Review About Best Cruiser Bike Under 1 Lac Budget

Version Reviewed - Avenger street 150 Purchased As - Brand new (01-01-2016) Distance Covered - 5538 Km till date (26-28-2016) Fuel Economy - 50 kmpl (Totally run in city traffic) Good - Looks, performance, handling, comfort, safety. Bad - No rear disc brake. No kick. I purchased my brand new avenger 150 street in 1st jan 2016 and till date I already clocked It around 5500 km done total running in Kanpur city Only. Exterior Aggressive front look and cool side look although rear tyre is small but decent could use a day light running lamp. Engine Performance: 14 PS power is good you can feel it when you accelerate it easily takes pick up (Not great as Apache, Gixxer) but even after you have reached triple speed figure effortless easy to drive in traffic and fun to cruise on highway. I tested the top speed of my avenger 150 twice on highway. at first it clock 112 km/hr and after second service it clocks at 115 km/hr. Fuel Economy: This is the best feature of this bike. and the only reason to submit my review also. before 1st service I got an average of around 35 kmpl in city. after 1st service mileage increased to 40-45 kmpl. But after 2nd service it reached to 55 kmpl in the hard city traffic. Guys believe me currently it giving me a healthy 55 kmpl mileage in a tight city traffic. I also tested mileage 3 times after 2nd service from reserve to reserve I take 100 rs fuel each time and my bike covered 78km, 81km, 80km on the three testing while the price of petrol in Kanpur is 65 Rs/ltr. Ride Quality & Handling: Ride Quality is very good you don't get tired even after long city driving. Handling is very good very reactive and cornering can be done with confidence. only the turning radius is too large compare to other. it creates some problem in city traffic. Final Words: Overall a very very good package for a fair price deal under the 1 lac segment.

Best Features: Look, comfort, mileage, uniqueness

Pros: Looks, ride comfort, mileage

Cons: No disc brake in rear wheel, no kick, no storage

Solid & Hardcore

I bought the Avenger 150 model last week. The bike as a whole is absolutely fantastic. I found the short pick-up to be a bit less, but that's not what you are looking for in this bike, & in no way that is a disadvantage. Comfort level, top notch .. balance, top notch. Also, the problem with a big turning radius owing to much wider handle-bar for the Cruise model has been largely taken care of in the Street models. In short, if you want to go for speed, you have the Pulsars .. for everything else, you have the Avengers.

Best Features: Suspension, comparatively lighter chassis, back wheel-base.

Pros: Power, comfort, balance.

Cons: Absence of kick.

Totally very good. But only colour where I disappointed. Bike has amazing seat comfort and looks. While riding the bike really I feel like king.

Best Features: Seating Position

Pros: Amazing Looks

Cons: I expected more colours but only colour in Street 150 which makes me nervous

2021 Bajaj Avenger Cruise 220 review, test ride

The bigger Avenger 220 Cruise is the one that stays true to the brand’s tag line, but has its own little flaws.

Published on May 19, 2021 07:00:00 AM

38,216 Views

Unlike the Avenger Street 160 that debuted only in 2019, the Cruise 220 has been around for a while. Sitting at the top of the Avenger line-up, the Cruise differs from the Street in some functional aspects that make a world of a difference. 

FEEL LIKE GOD

It’s a pretty bold tag line, but this Avenger Cruise 220 does make an impressive attempt at living up to it. For someone looking for a proper taste of what a cruiser has to offer, there isn’t an entry-level motorcycle that does it as well as the Cruise 220. The Cruise model is characterised by its wire-spoke wheels, generous amounts of chrome and long, low stance. The ergonomics, as well, are in line with what you’d expect from a cruiser – your feet are set forward, and a wide, swept-back handlebar enables you to manoeuvre the bike with very little effort. My only issue with this setup is that the handlebars will make contact with your knees while making sharp U-turns, or while filtering through traffic at slow speeds.

Just like with the Street, the Cruise also gets a tank-mounted secondary console with some tell-tale lights, but the fuel gauge is part of the primary handlebar-mounted fully digital unit. A tall, non-adjustable windscreen is part of the package as well, but I found that it does more harm than good for my 6-foot frame. A shorter rider will likely face less wind buffeting. 

CRUISE CONTROL

Just like the Street 160, the Cruise 220 also gets an engine that first debuted on a Pulsar, but has a reduction in power here. This 220cc, single-cylinder, oil-cooled engine is capable of peak output figures of 19.03hp at 8,500rpm and 17.55Nm at 7,000rpm. In application, this engine is notably calmer than the unit on the smaller Avenger and feels much more adept at maintaining highway speeds without too much stress. Performance is, unsurprisingly, better as well, and by a fair margin. The Cruise 220 gets to a 100kph nearly 10sec quicker than the Street 160. 

The Cruise 220 costs about Rs 23,000 more than Street 160, at Rs 1.27 lakh. It’s a fair margin between the two, but if you’re looking for more performance, the ability to take your bike out on long highway rides, and the visual appeal of a cruiser, it’s a stretch you should consider making.

Bajaj Avenger Cruise 220 Detailed Review

Bajaj Avenger has been a favorite of Indian customers because of its styling. The Avenger Cruise 220 takes the looks and design a step ahead by adding new design elements. The styling of the Bajaj Avenger Cruise 220 is influenced by big cruisers such as Harley Davidson. It has been provided with a big and bulky cruiser outlook. Its body is symmetrical. Its large windscreen is quite attractive. It has a cruiser look thanks to its telescopic fork at a break angle. This Avenger Cruise 220 has a lot of chrome, including the radiator, the horn, the exhaust, the front and rear turn signals, the mirror, and the area near the pillion seat. It's made of so much chrome that it gleams in the sunlight. The fuel tank contributes to its cruiser look, the way it flares out forms a teardrop look also topped with a big chrome piece that comes with a tell-tale light, fuel filler gap, and a minimalistic instrument cluster that is fully digitally situated above the chrome piece. It has a long single-piece seat with a backrest for the pillion seat which does not make it very comfortable but is good. ]The engine is 220 cc while the power of this Avenger Cruise 220 is 18.7 bhp. The Torque is 17.5 Nm. The brake type being disk with the typers are tubes. The seat height is 737 mm.

The Bajaj Avenger Cruise 220 has a traditional cruiser design. Its wonderfully smooth curves and usage of chrome components ensure that one stands out on the road while riding it, and makes one feel distinct from the throng.

The overall dimensions of the Avenger Cruise 220 are bigger than its siblings due to the addition of a windscreen and engine crash guard. The Cruiser 220 has been specifically designed to take on the highways and not the city streets. The seat height on the Bajaj Avenger Cruise 220 is 737 mm. It has large forward-set footpads in the cruiser style. It has a nice brake pedal and a large gear shift. The grips on the handlebars are fantastic. The rider's vision is blocked by the windscreen, which protects him from the air and buffeting, particularly on the head. Its mirror has a limited number of movements and requires a significant amount of time to set up. Even when the bike is running at a high pace, the handlebars do not vibrate significantly. The rider seat is smaller than the pillion seat. This seat is long enough and has a backrest, but it lacks comfort and is not suitable for extended rides. Its kerb weight is 163 kg, which is completely manageable. 

The Bajaj Avenger Cruise 220 has a low seat that allows the rider to easily touch the ground with their feet when seated. It's also lightweight, making it simple to manoeuvre.

Bajaj Avenger was popular since its launch because of the peppy engine and smooth gearbox combination. The Cruise 220 comes with a more powerful engine for easy highway cruising. The motor on the Bajaj Avenger Cruise 220 is comparable to that of the renowned Pulsar 220F. The Bajaj Avenger Cruise 220 is equipped with an oil-cooled 220 cc DTS-i engine that generates 18.7 BHP at 8500 rpm and 17.5 Nm at 7000 rpm, although its suspension is a tad harsh. The engine of the Bajaj Avenger Cruise 220 is connected to a five-speed gearbox, which is the same old five-speed unit gearbox. It has a fuel tank size of 13 litres and an ARAI-claimed flue economy of 38 kmpl; thus, leading to a longer riding range on the highways. It travels in a straight course effortlessly, but it does not lean swiftly or change routes smoothly. This motorcycle now has a fuel injection system.

The Bajaj Avenger Cruise 220 is powered by a 220cc engine that delivers 38 km/pl to the rider.

The tyre combination of the Bajaj Avenger Cruise 220 has been calibrated in a way that the bike remains confidence-inspiring over the highways. The rear tyre is 130/90 -15 in size and comes with dual shock absorbers. The front tyre is 90/90 -17 in size. Its seat is composed of high-quality materials that make the journey comfortable for both the rider and the pillion passenger. Auburn Black and Moon White are the two colours available for this bike. Both of the colours are stunning. Additionally, the ride quality has improved because of the tyre size and better brakes. 

The Bajaj Avenger Cruiser has generic safety and braking features and does not introduce anything noteworthy.

2012 Bajaj Avenger 220

The Bajaj Avenger 220 is basically the improved version of the old Avenger 180. The new bike features an elegant design, longer handlebars and a large windshield. You also get a pretty big tank which features an ergonomic design and delivers a pretty generous range.

The engine was borrowed from the Pulsar 220 and Street Fighter 220. It develops a maximum power of 19.03 @ 8400 and 17.5 Nm of torque @ 7000. The engine features digital twin spark ignition for efficient combustion. For increased performances the Avenger 220 is also equipped with the ExhausTEC system which improves engine torque at low revs without compromising anything at mid or high engine revs.

Another interesting feature is the third generation throttle ignition control system. This system allows you to control the ignition by operating the throttle. It also helps in achieving a good balance between driveability and optimum ignition spark advance, resulting in an almost perfect ignition spark advance for every throttle opening and engine rpm.

Key Features

The Comfort

The Convenience

DTS-I ENGINE

DTS-I stands for digital twin spark ignition. This technology employs twin spark plug instead of single spark plug. Twin spark plugs coupled with digital CDI ensures efficient combustion. The flame coverage is higher in the combustion chamber leading to complete combustion of air fuel mixture and elimination of any unburned fuel. This leads to a very good combination of power and mileage. Employing this technology Avenger produces stupendous power of 19.01 Ps without compromising on mileage.

IGNITION WITH A DIGITAL C.D.I.

A Digital C.D.I. with an 8 bit microprocessor chip handles the spark delivery. The programmed chip’s memory contains an optimum ignition timing for any given engine rpm, thereby obtaining the best performance characteristics from the combustion chamber. Working together with the TRICS III system, it delivers optimum ignition timing for varying load conditions.

Throttle responsive ignition control system IIIrd generation. It is a means of controlling the ignition by operating the throttle. Depending on the needs of the rider whether it be cruising, acceleration or max speed, the ignition requirements constantly change. Based on a particular amount of throttle opening, the magnetic field generated by the magnet opens or closes the reed switch. The reed switch is connected to the digital cdi, which signals the cdi to change/switch, the desired ignition advance timing maps. This helps in achieving a good balance between driveability and optimum ignition spark advance, resulting in an almost perfect ignition spark advance for every throttle opening and engine rpm.

ExhausTEC (Patent Number 231498) is a device incorporated in exhaust system of ‘Avenger DTS-i engine. ‘TEC’ stands

for ‘torque expansion chamber’. This world-first technology developed by Bajaj Auto improves the ‘scavenging’ process.

The exhaust system has this revolutionary feature incorporated, which drastically improves engine torque at low revs without compromising anything at mid or high engine revs. It has been extensively optimised to get the maximum possible performance out of the engine. The silencer also has a characteristic tonal quality to it. It gives out a pleasant sounding

low frequency ‘boom’ sound. While meeting the mandatory current noise norms, it gives the bike an identity, which is different from any other bike, so as to make it very unique.

Specifications

Bikedekho ---- "The Bajaj Avenger 220 is cruiser bike and one should not buy it for economical mileage. It may hardly give a fuel economy of around 35 kmpl in city."

Myindianguide ---- "The cruiser bike Bajaj Avenger 220 has a very similar look of older Bajaj Avenger 200cc. The cruiser bike of India from Bajaj has very attractive and robust look."

Zigwheels ---- "the Bajaj-Kawasaki tie-up gave a potent 175cc true-blue cruiser in the form of the Eliminator."

Indianriders ---- "Take your riding experience to the next level of success with the Bajaj Avenger 220 which is the modified variant of its predecessor Avenger 180."
