If you want to build a forum, you have multiple options, some of them are free whereas some are premiums. This forum uses premium software. I have multiple forums built on free forum scripts. based on my experience, I can say SMF is the best free forum script. However, I hear a lot of people talking about phpBB and MyBB.

Don't really know much about free forum scripts, but I'm still learning though, waiting to hear from the experts in the house to feed my ignorance.

When it comes to the free forum software, I have tried phpbb, SMF and I have tried MyBB and out of all those, MyBB is definitely my preferred free forum software. I think because I was a huge fan of vBulletin before they upgraded to vBulletin 4 and I am also a huge fan of Xenforo, MyBB is the closest to both of those which are paid software in my opinion.

Is $160 a one time license fee or does it have to be paid annually. I have used SMF and PHPBB earlier for my forums.
That's subscription fees payable annually. You will also have to pay subscription fees for a lot of add ons because you need add-ons on your forum to make your forum user friendly.

Honestly speaking I don't have any free forum website. However I have plans of acquiring one of the free trial forums with the free running softwares like the phBB software.
