Bajaj retails the entry-level Avenger Street 160 at a price of Rs 93,677, whereas the entry-level Harley Davidson in India costs over five times more
The Bajaj Avenger is currently the most affordable cruiser motorcycle in India, and there are no two ways about the bike’s popularity in the country. On the other hand, the American two-wheeler manufacturer Harley Davidson makes one of the finest cruisers in the world, and hence prices its bikes accordingly.

A video has been uploaded on YouTube detailing all the customisations that the Avenger Street 220 has gone through to be turned into a Harley Davidson, take a look –
The bike sports a dual-tone military green and yellow paint scheme, and also gets a custom two-piece brown coloured seat, unlike the single-piece seat seen on the stock Avenger. The modified bike comes equipped with a redesigned fuel tank, along with custom mud guards on both the ends.
Apart from that, the said Avenger has been equipped with a wider rear tyre than it originally came with, while it also gets a raised handlebar. The most notable change is the Assault Barrel Exhaust that has been added to the bike, and it makes the bike sound insane!
