Built by Jaggi Customs, this Avenger cruiser trike is the first modified 160cc bike that also features a reverse gear
The Bajaj Avenger needs no introduction and is quite a popular cruiser in India.
The three-wheeled motorcycle you see in these images and the video is based on Avenger 160, while the modification work is taken care of by the Jalandhar-based Jaggi customs.
You can watch all the details of this one-of-a-kind trike based on a 160cc motorcycle in this video uploaded by Motomahal.
At the start of the video, you can watch that the Avenger 160-based Trike moves in reverse gear. This was possible because the three-wheeled motorcycle also gets reverse gear. We believe this is a practical feature for such a three-wheeled vehicle. The user can reverse the trike in tight spaces by simply engaging the reverse gear function.
This modification work is done on vehicles keeping the specially-abled riders in mind. So the gears can be changed by foot or even by hand, depending on the user.
There are few other modification works carried on in this bike which we have talked about in this article
Two 13-inch rims shod with wider 165 spec tubeless tyres replaced the stock 15-inch wheel
While there is no change made to the front profile, the major customization work in the Avenger cruiser is carried towards the rear profile. Two 13-inch rims shod with wider 165 spec tubeless tyres replaced the stock 15-inch wheel, while the other change has been made to the swingarm to fit the two separate wheels.
Last but not least, the bike featured in the video also gets an auxiliary light mounted on the rear fender.
They have fitted two custom wheels at the rear to give the Avenger the proper trike appearance
There are no other mechanical changes made to the bike. The Bajaj Avenger 160 Trike uses the same 160cc single-cylinder Twin Spark DTS-i motor that produces 15PS of peak power at 8,500 RPM and a peak torque of 13.7Nm @ 7,000 RPM. Bajaj claims that Avenger 160 returns a claimed fuel efficiency of 47.2 kmpl
