The New CB Unicorn 160, healthy competitor in 160cc motor cycle segment Honda Motor cycle and Scooter India (HMSI) launched the new CB Unicorn 160 recently in the Indian market for the youngsters. The design of the new Unicorn is nothing out of the ordinary, yet has looks to admire. The new Honda unicorn CB160 is powered by a 163cc air cooled engine that comes with the company’s HET technology. The engine produces a healthy 14.5PS and a peak torque of 14.61Nm at 6000rpm. With that much power available to the rider, we are surprised that Honda still claims a fuel efficiency figure of 62kmpl.
