It gets the telescopic front forks and the monoshock suspension at the rear. The braking is taken care of by twin disc brakes with Combi Braking System (CBS).

Honda CB Unicorn 160, which was first launched in 2014, has been registering sales of 4,000-5,000 units per month. Pitted against Suzuki Gixxer, TVS Apache RTR, Hero Xtreme, Bajaj Pulsar 150 and Yamaha FZ-S, the Honda CB Unicorn 160 is also available in black, grey, red and white colours. Other features of the bike include digital meter console and fuel tank of 12 litre capacity.

Honda CB Unicorn 160 is the latest to join the BS-IV engine upgrade club in India. Pune-based two-wheeler maker Bajaj has also been upgrading its models with the BS-IV compliant engine.
