The entry-level Avenger gets a change of heart
It wouldn’t be wrong to say the Bajaj Avenger was the motorcycle that introduced the masses in India to cruiser motorcycles. It was the Kawasaki Bajaj Eliminator that was India’s first, small capacity, low slung cruiser but being a Kawasaki the bike was expensive for its time, which had Bajaj plonk the Pulsar 180’s engine into the bike and launch it as the Avenger. Since then the Avenger has seen several changes of heart, and now 13 years later the Avenger 180 makes a comeback. Bajaj felt there was room to replace the 150 with a larger engine to offer more performance, hence the 180. Effectively, the new Avenger 180 is the entry-level Avenger now.
