It is a tribute to bikers who appreciate a technologically superior and stylish product and a ride experience different from any other."
Added Mr. Milind Bade, GM Marketing, Bajaj Auto: "Our internal research suggested that bikers are looking for more power.

The long-and-low new Avenger 220 now has everything from power and performance to comfort, to fully realize the dreams and aspirations of this motorcycle consumer."
