 The Autocar India Verdict
You would have observed that each bike excels at different roles. The Achiever is the only 150cc motorcycle to buy if you are an enthusiast biker thinking only in terms of pace. Hero Honda should have done better than inharmoniously leaving its fleet-footed contender looking so much like an Ambition. The Achiever surprises for being a new bike, yet not recruiting a monoshock, thick rear tyre or alloy rims, which are long available on its competitors.
It’s near impossible to choose between the Pulsar 150 DTS-i and the Unicorn — they are that close in the final analysis. You simply can’t go wrong picking either of these two bikes.
The Bajaj has to its credit fantastic looks, top-notch quality, unbeaten value for money and a wide service network. And the Unicorn is rightfully a refined biker’s favourite by virtue of its rock-solid build quality, decent handling and an engine that’s as good as perfect. Different qualities appealing to different buyers but the Honda's flawless engine is what makes that ever-so-slender difference to us.


TESTERS NOTES
Switchgear on Hero Honda and Honda can surely improve.

Ride quality on the Pulsar is far more spine friendly than the other two.

Achiever is a hoot to rev and ride hard.
