About the Honda ADV 160

Overview

The Honda ADV 160 is a scooter from Honda. It is currently on sale. Scooters are made for easy city riding: automatic, step-through and usually with storage under the seat. With a 156.9 cc engine it sits in the larger, 150 cc-plus scooter class.

Engine and performance

Power comes from a 156.9 cc single-cylinder liquid-cooled engine that makes 16.9 bhp at 8,500 rpm and 14.9 Nm of torque at 6,500 rpm. Its bore is wider than its stroke (60 mm x 55.5 mm), a short-stroke layout that generally favours higher revs. It has electric start.

Gearbox

It uses an automatic (CVT) transmission, so there are no gears or clutch to work — you twist the throttle and go.

Chassis, brakes and tyres

Braking is by a 240 mm disc at the front and a disc at the rear, with single-channel ABS. Single-channel ABS works on the front wheel, which does most of the stopping. It rides on 14-inch front and 13-inch rear alloy wheels — 110/80-14 at the front and 130/70-13 at the rear.

Features and equipment

Equipment includes 5 " TFT Display, an LED headlamp, USB charging port, call and SMS alerts, keyless lock/unlock, idle start-stop, silent start, low fuel indicator and front storage box. Safety equipment includes side-stand engine cut-off and traction control.

Maintaining the Honda ADV 160

  • Routine servicing

    Follow the schedule in the owner's manual for your exact variant and year. A regular service is the cheapest way to catch small problems before they become expensive ones.

  • Engine oil & filter

    Engine oil is the single most important consumable to keep fresh. Top up between services if the level drops, and change it on schedule.

  • Brake inspection

    With Disc, 240 mm and Disc brakes, check pad or shoe wear, lever and pedal free play, and braking feel at every service.

  • CVT belt & variator

    Automatic scooters transmit power through a belt and variator. Listen for slipping or judder, and have them inspected as part of regular servicing.

  • Coolant & cooling system

    A liquid-cooled engine relies on coolant. Check the level and look over hoses and the radiator for leaks or damage, and replace coolant as the owner's manual directs.

  • Air filter & spark plug

    A clogged air filter or worn spark plug shows up as hard starting, weak throttle response and poorer fuel economy. Both are checked at a regular service and replaced when worn.

  • Disc brake fluid

    Brake fluid absorbs moisture over time, which lowers its boiling point. Have its level and condition checked and change it on the interval in the owner's manual.

  • Tyre inspection

    This bike runs 110/80-14 / 130/70-13 tyres. Check pressure, tread depth and sidewalls, and replace tyres that are worn or cracked.

  • Battery & electricals

    The battery is listed as 12v. Weak starting, dim lights or a flickering console are early signs the battery or charging system needs a look.

Honda ADV 160 specs explained

What the technical terms on this page mean.

ABS
Anti-lock braking system. It stops a wheel locking up during hard braking so the rider can keep steering. A single-channel system works on one wheel, usually the front; a dual-channel system works on both.
CVT
Continuously variable transmission. An automatic drive with no fixed gears: a belt running between two pulleys changes the ratio smoothly as you accelerate.
Liquid cooling
Coolant circulates through the engine and a radiator, keeping temperatures steadier than air alone, especially in traffic or under load.
Bore x stroke
The cylinder's width and the piston's travel. A larger bore relative to stroke tends to favour revs; a longer stroke tends to favour low-speed pull.
Compression ratio
How much the fuel-air mixture is squeezed before it is ignited. It is one of the factors behind an engine's efficiency and power.
