 Bajaj CT 100 is an energetic and economical entry-level
bike. It targets the value-for-money conscious young bike buyer and offers build quality and trim levels
of higher-end bikes at a price closer to that of a traditional metal-bodied scooter.

The build quality of Bajaj CT 100 is a big plus. The eye-catching decals on the fuel tank and body side
panels and the shapely, wide seating that gradually slopes upward and the chrome grab rail at the rear
gives Bajaj CT 100 the appearance similar to that of a more expensive bikes. The new ergonomically
designed seat and the right angled handle gives the rider a more comfortable riding posture

Bajaj CT 100 is equipped with a four-stroke, 99.27cc engine. The configuration of the engine block is a
bit squarer, which enables the engine to better burn the fuel in the combustion chamber and generate
more power and better torque.

Bajaj CT 100 develops 8.2bhp of peak power at 7,500 rpm and a maximum torque of 8.05Nm at 5,500
rpm. Bajaj CT 100's torque spread gives the bike a high level of low-speed tolerance and obviates the
need for frequent shifting into a lower gear. The low-end torque also aids in achieving high mileage.

Bajaj CT 100 comes with a "Ride Control" switch, which helps in improving the bike's mileage. The
unique ride control switch enables the rider to select between the economy and power mode. The
economy mode results in better mileage while the power mode gives better pick-up and performance.

All in all, Bajaj CT 100 is a combination of good looks, new-age technology, high mileage and features
that should be enticing for the entry-level bike buyer.

Bajaj CT 100

That was the tag line that accompanied the advertisements of the 180 cc Bajaj Avenger
when it was launched back in 2005. It has now been a few weeks since the Avenger 180
DTSi has been replaced with the new Avenger 200 DTSi, but still there has been no
promotion for the Avenger 200 DTSi yet. Forget TV Ads, I have yet to come across even
a print advertisement for the Avenger 200 DTSi.

Why..??

When other manufacturers go over the top to proclaim new stickers on existing bikes as
all new models, has Bajaj decidAccording to me it is actually "Smart Marketing". The "I
Feel Like God" campaign had already created an awareness/impression about the
Avenger among consumers back in 2001. To keep the interest of the customers alive,
Bajaj has decided to upgrade the engine by increasing the displacement and
consequently the power and torque figures.

The small cruiser is still a niche segment in India. Since there is virtually no competition
for the Avenger in this segment, why bother to spend crores of moolah on promotion.
After all there are Bloggers like me to bring you the test ride and review all for
free..!!

Styling:

Apart from an optional windshield, it’s almost impossible to distinguish the now
discontinued Avenger 180 DTSi from the new Avenger 200 DTSi. Thankfully the engine
covers and the cylinders have not been doused in black color. The previous “Avenger”
moniker has now been shifted from the side panels to the Tank. The side panel now
sports a “200 Oil Cooled” sticker. Like the Pulsar 200 DTSi, the Avenger 200 DTSi also
does away with the kick lever and goes in just with the Electric Start.
 The Avenger 200 DTSi still retains the chrome-laden
charm of a low-slung cruiser. It also retains the somewhat awkward ignition switch for
which you have to fish under the petrol tank. The petrol tank now also houses a small
fuel indicator along with the telltale lights. But with all that chrome, the sunlight does find
its way to your eyes. But hey..!! That’s what you get in a cruiser.

The brand that comes to everyone’s mind when talking about “cruisers” is Harley
Davidson. One of the vivid memories of my childhood is the image of Arnold
Schwarzenegger on the Harley in the movie Terminator. The Avenger is the closest that
our “desi” bikers can get to that kind of Americana on Indian roads and by spending
Indian money.

Ride Experience:

Riding position:

For any who has ridden street bikes all his life, the low seat of the Avenger feels
a little awkward. But it takes only a few minutes to get used to this comfortable
riding posture. The feet are placed forward with the arms outstretched.

Clutch & Gearbox:

Press the thumb start and the Avenger immediately settles into a smooth idle.
The jerky clutch that used to plague earlier versions of the Pulsars has become
almost perfect now and the clutch of the Avenger also is free from any issues.
 The same cannot be said about the gears though. Even though the gears are
smooth to operate they still could do with a little bit of more feel. Also like the
Pulsars finding neutral is an art that needs to be mastered. That being said, the
gearbox was thankfully free from any false neutrals.

Engine Performance:

Cruisers are supposed to be made for easy and relaxed riding. So I was a bit
sceptical on how the short stroke engine of the Pulsar 200 DTSi would perform
on the Avenger. But just a few minutes on the Avenger was enough to dispel any
doubts. The engine pulled quite effortlessly in every gear. But to enjoy the bike
the most, it is better not to stress the engine too much.

Handling:

For someone who has always ridden road bikes, the handling of the Avenger with
the long wheelbase and kicked out front forks, need some time to get used to.
Although the Avenger handles quite well, one cannot expect to attack the corners
like one would on a Pulsar.

Ride:

The ride quality of the Avenger isn’t exactly plush. Ride quality on smooth roads
remains ok, but show the Avenger some bad roads and the road irregularities will
get transmitted mildly to your spine.

Braking:
 I had come across about discussion in a few Internet forums about the braking of
the Avenger 180 being prone to sliding under hard braking. So I decided to test it
for myself. I gathered some momentum on the bike and then hit the brakes hard.
I have to say that the brakes were quite impressive and the bike halted without
any issue. Maybe as the tyres get old and hard, the bike might slide under hard
braking, but then this is true for any bike.

Fuel Efficiency:

According to Auto Magazines you can expect a mileage figure of around 35 Kmpl
from the Avenger 200 DTSi

Conclusion:

Even though I thoroughly enjoyed the ride on the Avenger, in the process I
probably lost a bit of respect for the bike.

For me a bike has to evoke a feeling of respect for it. Probably even scare you
with its limits..

The Avenger could have included flat footboards instead of the front foot pegs. Also the
rear seat is a bit narrow and the pillion on the Avenger would definitely require more
frequent butt breaks especially on long journeys.

At 5 ft 5 inches I literally have to be on my toes (Pun Intended) on almost every other

bike in the country including my own Pulsar 220 DTS-Fi. So the low seat of the Avenger
provided me with the rare opportunity to put both my feet flat firmly on the ground. This
meant that I could play around with the Avenger with gay abandon.
 I have to say that even though I
thoroughly enjoyed the ride on the Avenger, in the process I probably lost a bit of respect
for the bike. For me a bike has to evoke a feeling of respect for it. Probably even scare
you with its limits. There should be something extra left in the bike that should challenge
you to test its limits.

So instead of feeling like Arnold on his Harley-Davidson, the Avenger actually made me
feel like a boy on a wannabe cruiser.

So if you happen to ride the Avenger, do wear that rider jacket, wear it in black leather if
you want, also never forget to wear that helmet. But for God’s sake do not wear that “I
am a tough guy attitude”.
