Honda Bikes:Honda Unicorn 150cc

honda_unicorn1Honda gifted the new passion to indian customer with strong engine, rugged looks and pleasing performance. Everyone is looking for superior mileage and pick up and Unicorn Offer all these features and facilitie. Unicorn is the first bike in India with mono suspension feature.

Honda Unicorn is equipped with extremely refined and responsive 150cc engine. This smooth revving engine has been infused with a high torque characteristic that makes the Unicorn one of the most fuel-efficient in its class. The high torque available at low rpm levels also reduces the necessity of frequent switching to a lower gear in city riding conditions.

The Unicorn’s 150cc engine develops a peak torque of 1.3 Kg-m at an astonishingly low 5,500 rpm. The only thing that looked somewhat odd is the mediocre size rear tyre. For such a big bike, Honda should have fitted a more wider tyre. The clutch lever drive is smooth and there is no need to use much force. The engine is powerful enough & gear shifts are smooth and there is no stress or pain while shifting them.

The instruments are similar to a entry-level sports bike with a big tacho and smaller speedo. It also features a fuel gauge and lights for Power on, Winkers and High beam. The tail lamps follows the fashion statement from Dio. The winkers are stylish and up-to-date. One noteworthy feature is the head lamp flasher works even if the engine is OFF. Yes, the flasher uses the battery power. This is one feature that is not found in other bikes.

Honda Unicorn’s other useful features include a puncture resistant Tuff-up tube, tyre combination at the rear, storage space under the seat and sturdy lights for better visibility. It is available in Black, Candy Blazing Red, Champion Blue Metallic, Geny Grey Metallic & Forced Silver Metallic.
