Monday, 21 August 2023 07:32 AM

The Unicorn nameplate, which was once offered in two variations—the CB Unicorn and the CB Unicorn 160—will only be offered on a single model going forward, which will only be called "Unicorn." It also complies with the soon-to-be-enforced BS-VI compliance standards. The surface of the unicorn has not experienced any notable changes. It maintains the same straightforward commuter design, which is well-liked by the target market. It comes in three different colors: Pearl Igneous Black, Imperial Red Metallic, and Mat Axis Gray Metallic. The original CB Unicorn hasn't altered much in almost a decade since it was released in 2004.
 

Wednesday, 30 August 2023 08:09 PM Honda has introduced a new chrome strip above the headlights and a black-and-white background design for the tachometer in the latest model of the CB Unicorn. Additionally, the bike features a new Pearl Siren Blue paint and a chrome side cover, enhancing its aesthetic appeal. The design updates make it look more handsome than before.
Wednesday, 30 August 2023 05:39 AM The Honda CB Unicorn 160 now boasts the highest ground clearance in its segment at 187 mm, along with an ARAI mileage of 60 kmpl. It also features single-channel ABS with disc brakes and monoshock suspension, making it a reliable and safe choice for riders. I believe these features make it an excellent option for both city and rural areas.
Thursday, 31 August 2023 01:26 AM The Honda CB Unicorn 160 features a 162.7 cc engine producing 12.73 PS and 14 Nm of torque, making it smooth and efficient for city riding. The engines mid-range torque is particularly commendable, making it ideal for peak traffic hours. I believe this engine is one of the reasons for the bikes enduring popularity.
Wednesday, 30 August 2023 12:38 PM The latest Honda CB Unicorn comes with an engine start-stop switch and a side stand engine cut-off feature, enhancing its convenience and safety. These features are particularly useful for daily commuters.
Thursday, 31 August 2023 01:10 AM The Honda CB Unicorn is available in four colors: Imperial Red Metallic, Matt. Axis Grey Metallic, Pearl Siren Blue, and Pearl Ignenous Black. This variety caters to different tastes and preferences among buyers. I think the new color options are quite appealing.
Wednesday, 14 June 2023 04:47 PM The 2023 Honda CB Unicorn 160 has been updated to meet the stringent BS6 OBD2 emission norms, and it is now priced at Rs 1.10 lakh. This update includes compliance with the latest environmental regulations. I think this move is a step in the right direction for a more eco-friendly riding experience.
Wednesday, 13 March 2019 05:30 PM In 2019, Honda updated its commuter range with the Combi Brake System (CBS) and ABS ahead of the March 31 deadline for safety regulations. The CB Unicorn was one of the models to receive these safety features, ensuring compliance with the new norms.
Tuesday, 26 February 2019 09:35 PM Honda Motorcycle and Scooter India (HMSI) has updated the CB Unicorn with Anti-Lock Brakes (ABS) in 2019, priced at Rs 78,815 (ex-showroom, Delhi). This safety feature is a significant addition, especially for urban riders. The bike also retains its 240 mm disc brake at the front and a 130 mm drum brake at the rear.
Monday, 09 January 2017 08:56 AM The BS-IV compliant Honda CB Unicorn 160 was launched in 2017, priced at Rs 73,552. This version included an Automatic Headlights On function, a new Matte Marvel Blue shade, a longer visor, and new graphics. These updates were aimed at enhancing both safety and aesthetics.
Monday, 08 February 2016 06:46 AM Honda India showcased the Unicorn 150 at the 2016 Auto Expo and announced its intention to re-launch the model later that year. This move was part of Hondas strategy to revamp its commuter bike lineup. I think bringing back the Unicorn 150 was a smart move given its popularity.

I was really glad to purchase this bike, but 1 problem is that when the bike starts the rpm is too much and it takes a minimum of 45 secs to come back to normal. Otherwise bike is much better than others, I also have ride experience which is better than other bikes, it's very comfortable seating, also mileage on the highway is good. Service & maintenance is affordable to all.

Bad Experience

Engine noise is more like auto. The break is not good. Irritability to ride. No service support in the Honda service center. Pulling capacity is very poor for doubles. The vehicle is like a 100 cc bike. Friends, please choose another vehicle, it would be better. I am a unicorn lover but now I hate this bike. Not worth that amount.

Comfortable

I bought a Unicorn bike three months ago at RAAM Honda Secunderabad. The bike is very comfortable and friendly for everyday traveling in the city. Mono suspension is a very good shock absorption technology for comfort. I would recommend the bike for those who looking for good suspension for back pain. Every day 60 KM and above is a very smooth ride you can do in your daily life.
