Bajaj Eliminator

To gain a strategic position in the premium segment, Bajaj engineers replaced the Kawasaki engine with underpowered, 178.6 cc DTS-i engine from the Bajaj Pulsar sportbike. However, the engine had to be re-tuned to suit the torque-demanding characteristics of a cruiser. The bike was launched on 6 September 2005. It is also the first cruiser developed by an Indian company. The wheelbase is 1,475 mm (58.1 in). Mileage around 45 kmpl

In July 2010, Bajaj launched a 220 cc version of Bajaj Avenger, with slight changes in its dial in tank showing indicators, fuel level, status and headlight. It comes in various colors and with an oil-cooled radiator for its engine. Avenger 220 gives an average of 35–40 km/L. Top Speed 135 km/h Its gross weight is approx 185 kg. And Kerb weight is approx 154 kg. Cruising speed is 70–80 km/h with mileage of 40 km/L on highways and hills like to mountain areas. Tank capacity is 14 L. Avenger 220 is a successful cruiser in India when compared with others with reliability, price tag, performance, maintenance cost, power and glamour. These models are now discontinued.

It comes with a 150cc engine. It was launched on 2015 October along with Avenger Street 220 and Avenger 220 Cruise. It works on carburettor system. It has an impressive mileage of 45 km/L and draws a top speed of 117 km/h. Avenger 150 street requires 1150 mL of Engine oil to refill at servicing.

The third generation of the widely successful Avenger required an update in order to deal with competition such as the Suzuki Intruder, which was launched in Q3, 2017. With this update, the 150 cc version was retired in favour of a 180 cc version. The third generation brought with it a slew of design changes such as a new headlamp with LED DRLs. A digital instrument cluster, backlit with blue on the Cruise and Orange on the Street, is also a recent addition. There is also a new tall shroud that shields the instrument cluster from direct sunlight. The new cluster gets a speedometer, two trip meters, fuel gauge and a service reminder. The back grab rail for the Street version has been revamped too. The Avenger insignia has also been changed and made bigger. There are new graphics and colours for all three variants, too: Avenger Cruise 220: Auburn Black, Moon White Avenger Street 220: Matt Black, Matt White Avenger Street 180: Red, Black Apart from these, there are no mechanical changes to any of the bikes.
