  • Apache RTR 160 Review

    35 weeks ago


    Shamsher Ansari

    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.

    Subhradeep Roy

    I'm using this machine for more than 1 year and this is the most beginner friendly sports Machine.
    Mileage- Believe me guys I'm getting mileage of more than 50 kmpl,i dont rev the engine too hard and also maintain speed in city between 40-50 and in highway 60-70! and i use Power Petrol and always check tyre pressure once in 1 or 2 week and always fill air from fuel stations as there machine are accurate!
    Engine- The heart of this machine is really wonderful one as it performs great In city as well as in highway and the exhaust note is also little sporty.In fact during lockdown i start my bike once in 1 or 2 week and believe me guys it starts with the first kick.
    I have done 24k km still haven't faced any problem with engine just do proper servicing in time!
    Riding experience- Seating posture is really great,not too aggressive,but very comfortable. Suspensions are good but not excellent as you are getting what you are paying for! I have riden the bike for more than 300 km in a day and not faced any back pain or something like that!
    Service and maintenance- My bike has done 24k km and at 22k km I've changed all brake pads and rear suspension repaired also! service costs are less but i must say service station guys are not very well behaved!
    Cons of this machine- Headlight is poor,FI version not available.

    The riding quality of tvs rtr160 4v is great but not phenomenal. The comfort of a seat and seating position is also great Details about looks and performance3. The looks of this bike is very eye-catching and the public response for this bike is also great. The performance of bike could be better Experience (Performance, Mileage, Comfort): Many riders praise the Apache RTR 160 4V's peppy performance, excellent fuel efficiency, and comfortable riding position for the rider. However, some users find the pillion seat a bit firm for extended journeysThe TVS Apache RTR 160 is powered by a 159.7 cc air-cooled engine that produces 16.04 PS @ 8750 rpm of power. It has a fuel tank of 12 L and a claimed mileage of 47 kmpl. The TVS Apache RTR 160 starts at Rs 1.19 and goes up to Rs 1.26 Lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi).The first service after 500 km, second service after 2500 km, third service after 5000 km, fourth service after 8500 km and fifth service after 11500 km is free of costPros:-*best pickup*attractive look*superb handling*good comfort. Cons:-*no abs(according to safety purposes)*can't do cornering on roads because of tyres(little bit risky for the rider, he/she will lose confidence while doing cornering. Maintenance cost is high as compared to other 160cc segment bikes.

    I got my apache rtr 160 cc bike in mar-2012 by paying 72k rupees(yes there was a time). The meter now reads 39, 168 km covered. It has been with me for the past 6 years and is still in very good condition. Previously i had bajaj discover. Please read my experience and views about the bike: Visual appeal:It has decent looks. Back it 2012 it was one of the most sought bikes along with Bajaj Pulsar. I opted for apache because of its proven tracker record. But nowadays there are better-looking bikes are available in the market. Having said that, it doesn’t look that bad too:-) Mileage: usually don’t keep too much tracker of the mileage. But i have observed that it varies from 40 to 45 km/ltr. Not great but not bad too considering it is a 160cc bike. If you are too concerned for the mileage better go for 125 cc bikes. Comfort: Comfort-wise it might not be the best bike. Its neither high on comfort nor the worst either. In the short trips you find it quite ok but you would feel the difference once you drive it for a longer distance. Performance:It is a beast with a powerful battery. Pick-up is nice and breaks are pretty good. The only cons is it vibrates once you increase the speed over 70km/hr. Maintenance: There are bikes like yamaha fz or Bajaj Pulsar which are high-maintenance bikes. As compared to them, TVS Apache’s maintenance won’t cost you too much. Well that’s it from my me i wish you have a wonderful and safe ride! one last word…a request…please wear a helmet for your safety!

    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.

    Subhradeep Roy

    I'm using this machine for more than 1 year and this is the most beginner friendly sports Machine.
    Mileage- Believe me guys I'm getting mileage of more than 50 kmpl,i dont rev the engine too hard and also maintain speed in city between 40-50 and in highway 60-70! and i use Power Petrol and always check tyre pressure once in 1 or 2 week and always fill air from fuel stations as there machine are accurate!
    Engine- The heart of this machine is really wonderful one as it performs great In city as well as in highway and the exhaust note is also little sporty.In fact during lockdown i start my bike once in 1 or 2 week and believe me guys it starts with the first kick.
    I have done 24k km still haven't faced any problem with engine just do proper servicing in time!
    Riding experience- Seating posture is really great,not too aggressive,but very comfortable. Suspensions are good but not excellent as you are getting what you are paying for! I have riden the bike for more than 300 km in a day and not faced any back pain or something like that!
    Service and maintenance- My bike has done 24k km and at 22k km I've changed all brake pads and rear suspension repaired also! service costs are less but i must say service station guys are not very well behaved!
    Cons of this machine- Headlight is poor,FI version not available.

    The riding quality of tvs rtr160 4v is great but not phenomenal. The comfort of a seat and seating position is also great Details about looks and performance3. The looks of this bike is very eye-catching and the public response for this bike is also great. The performance of bike could be better Experience (Performance, Mileage, Comfort): Many riders praise the Apache RTR 160 4V's peppy performance, excellent fuel efficiency, and comfortable riding position for the rider. However, some users find the pillion seat a bit firm for extended journeysThe TVS Apache RTR 160 is powered by a 159.7 cc air-cooled engine that produces 16.04 PS @ 8750 rpm of power. It has a fuel tank of 12 L and a claimed mileage of 47 kmpl. The TVS Apache RTR 160 starts at Rs 1.19 and goes up to Rs 1.26 Lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi).The first service after 500 km, second service after 2500 km, third service after 5000 km, fourth service after 8500 km and fifth service after 11500 km is free of costPros:-*best pickup*attractive look*superb handling*good comfort. Cons:-*no abs(according to safety purposes)*can't do cornering on roads because of tyres(little bit risky for the rider, he/she will lose confidence while doing cornering. Maintenance cost is high as compared to other 160cc segment bikes.

    I got my apache rtr 160 cc bike in mar-2012 by paying 72k rupees(yes there was a time). The meter now reads 39, 168 km covered. It has been with me for the past 6 years and is still in very good condition. Previously i had bajaj discover. Please read my experience and views about the bike: Visual appeal:It has decent looks. Back it 2012 it was one of the most sought bikes along with Bajaj Pulsar. I opted for apache because of its proven tracker record. But nowadays there are better-looking bikes are available in the market. Having said that, it doesn’t look that bad too:-) Mileage: usually don’t keep too much tracker of the mileage. But i have observed that it varies from 40 to 45 km/ltr. Not great but not bad too considering it is a 160cc bike. If you are too concerned for the mileage better go for 125 cc bikes. Comfort: Comfort-wise it might not be the best bike. Its neither high on comfort nor the worst either. In the short trips you find it quite ok but you would feel the difference once you drive it for a longer distance. Performance:It is a beast with a powerful battery. Pick-up is nice and breaks are pretty good. The only cons is it vibrates once you increase the speed over 70km/hr. Maintenance: There are bikes like yamaha fz or Bajaj Pulsar which are high-maintenance bikes. As compared to them, TVS Apache’s maintenance won’t cost you too much. Well that’s it from my me i wish you have a wonderful and safe ride! one last word…a request…please wear a helmet for your safety!
