Other than the aforementioned changes, the motorcycle remains largely the same. It continues to draw power from its existing 163 cc single-cylinder motor that develops a peak power output of 15 bhp and max torque of 14 Nm. The engine is paired to a 5-speed gearbox that channels the power to the rear wheel via a chain drive mechanism.
Talking of brakes, the motorcycle comes equipped with a single-channel ABS as standard. As for the suspension, it uses conventional telescopic front forks and a monoshock at the rear. The latter is adjustable for the preload.

In terms of design, a revised design for the pillion seat is another change on the updated model. The streetfighter-style motorcycle continues with the sharp LED headlamp cluster and a beefy fuel tank that also features prominent tank shrouds adding to the visual bulk. The exhaust canister is, however, finished in a black shade this time.
The Xtreme 160R gets LED turn signals, along with a fully-digital instrument console. The backlit LCD panel offers a host of information, such as gear position indicator, speedometer, tachometer and trip meters.
