Reviews of TVS Apache RTR 160

I purchased Rtr 160 2v bt 7 months ago. Since I purchased this bike, it is not smooth while driving. 3 services had been done but also there are some problems like jerking and speedo meter error.
My opinion is to buy the bajaj pulsar 150 instead of the Apache Rtr 160.
Pulsar 150 td is better than Apache 160 2v.

About the Reviewer

It was a very good experience with the dealer of TVS bikes Kishore TVS in Sambalpur city. Salesmen are also well-behaved and have a good knowledge of bikes. The bike has very low maintenance. The cons are that speed after 60 km, the bike gets throttled. One of the problems that the earlier generation Apaches and to an extent the RTR is the engine roughness. The performance was never a problem. With the addition of Fuel Injection that problem seems to have gone out of the window. The power delivery is very smooth and the throttle response is very crisp. The gearbox too is precise with positive shifts every time you tap the lever. The first gear is a bit weak and you don’t feel the true potential of the 150.7cc mill. Shifting while in the power band, I began to feel at home and was excited enough not to resist the urge to go faster and faster. That said if you shift the gear in lower r.p.m then you feel a tremendous loss in power and it takes quite a while to hit the power band again. So correct shifting is the key if you are riding the bike in day-to-day traffic. Personally, I don’t have any complaints about the character of the bike.

About the Reviewer

1. Buying was good but I got delivered late due to a delay from rto hsrp plate.
2. Riding is good on good roads and speeds between 40-50kmph.
3. Looks are simple and good, but performance is below average.
4. Servicing is not good and required maintenance.
5. Pros.
A) simple and decent look.
B) posture is good.
Cons
A) engine is not good. Rpm settings are required many times.
B) gearbox has issues.
C) very high vibration above 55kmph you can not enjoy riding above that speed.
D) seat is worst.
E) rear disk brake is not good. You can not rely on that. So drive slow.
F) cheap accessories and body parts used.
G) headlight is worst, not visible if the vehicle coming from the front. Kindly change halogen into led.
If you are die-hard crazy about apache then buy its 4v but my personal experience suggests going for the honda sp shine bs6. It is 125 cc but much better than apache 160 2v.

1. Buying experience was good. But I get delivery late due to rto incompetency.
2. Riding is good on smooth roads and bike speed between 40-50 is smooth but below 40 and above 50 bike performance sucks.
3. Look is decent. Performance is satisfactory on smooth highways but in the city it sucks. The gearbox is the worst. The first and second gears always stuck and bike engine stops frequently while changing gear with full clutch. High vibration very high vibration. At 4000 rpm you have to go on 5th gear.
4. Service and maintenance are average. Abs light indication got affect within 3 months and till now no rectification. 4 services done.
5. Pros.
Good at highways and when speed is above 40.
Cons.
Milage is worst 34-38
The gearbox is the worst.

About the Reviewer

1. Buying experience is okay.
2. Riding experience is okay with single riding. Bike struggles with pillion.
3. Looks is attractive and depends on individual perspective. Performance is one point less than average. Major heating issues available. Even you can feel heat near tanks. Rear disk brake is poor.
Build quality is poor. Pillion will have leg pain and lower body pain if riding for long due to leg support position. Not even one month heating issue is high. Front brake is decent. Headlight is decent. Tyre quality is bad. Handling is good.
4. Don't buy RTR 200 variant. Pulsar is much better.
