The Honda CB Unicorn was one of India’s best-selling 150cc motorcycles in India. It was quick on its feet, very refined, and efficient too, everything a premium commuter should be. It has been selling in good numbers month after month, but in the face of increasingly stiff competition, the CB Unicorn had begun to lose some of its sheen. Honda sensed this, and set about revamping its old workhorse. Behold, the CB Unicorn 160, the newest entrant in the premium commuter segment. We take it around for a long ride to find out just how well it performs.Honda’s executive commuters have always had restrained styling, and the CB Unicorn 160 is no different. It may not have the visual pizzazz of a say, a Suzuki Gixxer or a Yamaha FZ16, but it looks pretty dapper and handsome. We think this sort of styling will definitely strike a chord with the mature audience.As is the norm with Honda motorcycles, the Unicorn 160 is one well-built bike. The level of finish is definitely a couple of notches higher than the segment norm. It sure does feel like it can take quite a bit of beating.While the Unicorn 160 is quite nimble and agile to ride in traffic, a corner-carving demon it isn’t, given its commuter-focused ergos. Still, it does feel quite stable when taking corners at speed.Seriously Guys honda is the best company.
