Bajaj Avenger getting updated, Now with 220cc


avenger-220Bajaj Kawasaki Eliminator, as it was called when it was launched in India with the Kawasaki engine. Bajaj took over and have been producing it as Avenger ever since. The bike couldn’t do well enough if you compare the two wheeler market in India, but thats more because of the cruiser category. Even today, if you need a sub 1 lakh Rupees cruiser in India, you only have option of  Royal Enfield range or Bajaj Avenger.
Bajaj has now increased the engine cubic capacity by fitting the pulsar 220’s engine on it, although the bike won’t show exact same figures on sheet, it would be pretty close.
19.3HP 220cc 4 stroke engine (Pulsar 220 has 21PS)
17.2 Nm @ 7000 rpm
The notable differences are,
  • Front, Top of the handle lock instead of the side lock.
  • Full DC electrical.
  • Battery Sensor, Auto-cancel Indicators
