Reviews of TVS Apache RTR 160

I bought apache rtr 160 series with dual disc( front+rear) at a price of 87000 as it is a beast at its segment which offers a great power delivery at this price.

I found that the bike is having good riding position for rider and soft seating position for pillion which provides comfort for rider as well as pillion.

I loved the front head of the bike the devil eye looks like aho feature give it a good look. And silver clutch and brake liver gives it a nice look. Performance wise it delivers a max power of 15.2bhp @ 8500rpm and torque of 13.1nm @ 6000rpm.The bike gets 17-inch alloy wheels in the front and rear with 90 mm section tyres at the front and 110 mm section tyres at the rear. The front forks have a travel of 105mm and the motorcycle comes equipped with a mig dual springs at the rear.

Service wise it clean up up the chain and use chain spray at every 700kms, change engine oil and oil filter at every 4500kms and always use synthetic oil for your bike.

what i don't like about this bike is the vibration it so annoying when u rip the bike on road the front half of the bike vibrates to much, the head of the bike vibrates @ of 7000+ rpm. But to ride at city conditions the bike is too good at 160cc segment. Tvs should improve the rubber quality of tyre because it is too hard.

About the Reviewer

I have drove my apache rtr 160 for 1000km, still using it. If i have to describe it in single word, i would say its a work-horse. I am now 21 years old, it employee by profession. I have been using this bike since 2016 have found it to be extremely reliable, no matter what if there is fuel in the tank bike will start in a single starter. Very fuel efficient, with its default tyres it gave me an mileage of+58 in city drive all the time.Pros:braking - it is wonderful, unlike pulsar the bike stops and doesn't make you fall on the road even during panic braking(i drive a rear disk version). You will feel the difference when you drive a non rear disk bike after driving a this bike.Looks- its looks good, some people like its looks some done. I love it looks.Very low maintenance and very durable parts- damn good at this, a service with oil change costs me 800inr on an avg(i get it service it in every 4 months), the parts are very durable including the body parts they are strong as an ox. I had few minor accidents so its a well tested statement. It has a 16ltr fuel tank.Cons:if you can live with its cons, you can certainly live with its pros.Default tvs tyres skid on wet roads like hell(non abs version), it almost like riding a banana peal during monsoons., especially when you apply only rear disk break. Solution - change the tyres to a better grip one(whistle mileage will drop because of this)single over head cam(sohc) - how it impacts you? well for starters it performs very differently when you ride without pillion rider and when you ride with one. No body is gonna tell you this truth before you buy it. The bike gets out of breath and you have to bring it on very low gears when trying to pull up a pillion rider to a slight road slant. Drive a dohc vehicle uphill with a pillion rider and you will know the difference very easily.Open chain- well the chain gets dried up very quickly during the windy season. You can feel the roughness during the drive.Hard shock absorbers- shock absorbers but very hard you can feel every stone, pothole on the road. Yahama and honda shockers are way better in this case(yes i had those bikes too).Gearing ratio- ever thought how do they deliver such an excellent mileage with a 160cc engine? the answer lies in the gearing ratio. How does it impact you? you will have to change gears very frequently on traffic roads.Engine and gear shift smoothness- lets accept the facts here the engine is not as smooth as honda and gearbox is not as smooth as bajaj. In-fact if you don't warm-up the engine before the start the ride in the morning, you can feel the roughness during the gearshifts, damn easily.Final verdict- all in all if you want a bike which looks very powerful(but really its not) and delivers a decent millage without any high maintenance costs, this is the one for you.If you need a very smooth bike in terms of engine, suspension and gear shift, you are way off track buddy.:)p.S.- i don't mind producing the bike photos, document scans. Service records of my bike to prove that every word i said above is absolutely true and a first hand experience.
