My Second Honda Unicorn. Review on Honda Unicorn 150 cc

I have been using Unicorn since April 2005 and I am very happy with this product. I sold my old Unicorn after covering 34, 000Km and bought the new one with mag wheels. I sold my old Unicorn as it did not have self start and mag wheel.

These are some of my comments about Unicorn. This bike is a technological marvel, the mono shock which was introduced for the first time in India works very well for long and short rides. The engine and gear shifts are smooth. The engine last longer than any other 150cc bikes available today. Over all maintenance is very low and gives good mileage.

The longest distance I have travelled on this bike is 550Km in one singe day, with no road for three Km. The Mono shock really helps in these kinds of roads.

If you talk to any local mechanic or Non Honda dealers, they say Mono shock is not good for Indian roads. I have to say Honda has done a lot of R&D on this.

I use Bullet 350cc as well and ride it during weekends. There is no bike in India like a Bullet, but in terms of comfort, breaking ability, pickup, reliability and low maintenance, Unicorn is way ahead. You have to give very little care for this bike and get a trouble free ride for a very long time.

I have seen some reviews saying that Bajaj Pulsar 150cc is powerful than Unicorn. I strongly disagree to this. I travel 80 to 90 KM every day through highway and come across a lot of Pulsars.

I rarely see a Pulsar overtaking me.

Old Pulsar 150cc was powerful than old Unicorn, but the new Pulsar 150cc is less powerful than the new Unicorn.

Those who are confused to buy a Unicorn or a Pulsar 150cc, this is what I have to say.

Pulsar’s performance come down after 40, 000 to 50, 000Km, this is due to Dtsi technology which cause more depreciation to the engine than normal bikes. Most Pulsar 150cc has gear shift problems and has to replace clutch plate between 20, 000 and 25, 000Km. No such issues with Unicorn.

The only negative side I see in a Unicorn is the poor horn and no park light.

Those who are planning to buy a 150cc bike (other than Yamaha R15) should go for Unicorn.

I Realy Realy Enjoy The Quality.......
