  • Okish bike for 80k

    8 years ago


    Harsh

    Bought this bike on nov 2014,


    style styles is pretty good, you may get alot of attention in rural areas etc. Looks good from all angles.


    Engine performance, fuel economy and gearbox engine refinement is below average, quite much vibration around 4000rpm and in footpegs above 70-80 km/h, though the pickup of bike is amazing. I achieved top speed of 113 km/h @ 8200rpm (speedo indicated).


    Ride quality & handling ride quality is good, you can corner the bike at 100 km/h, but before that one should consider changing those poor tyres provided by tvs, riding position is aggressive so you might get some back pain in long rides.


    Final words its ok bike for 80k for a daily rider, can give milage around 40-45 kmpl easily, the body frame is rust prone, so avoid putting bike outside in monsoon season.


    Areas of improvement refinement of engine, better quality body frame and other parts, after sales service.

    Pros

    pickup, looks, powerful front disc brake,

    cons

    poor quality tyres, unrefined engine, vibration in handlebars and footpegs, rust prone body frame.

  • My suggestion go for it guys

    2 years ago


    Ganesh

    I bought it in 2018 November. Bs4 model. After riding 35000 km I am writing this review. It's a wonderful feeling with this machine. Performance and maintenance is very good and mileage also. I am getting 52 km/l. Sound effect is very nice after Dominar bike but one thing it's vibrating 5 to 7000 rpm this is only bad thing about this bike, Others wise go for it guys.

    It has been more than 3 years since I purchased this bike in August 2020. At 40-50 kmph speed riding experience is okay but beyond that, the engine noise creeps in which is an irritating and unpleasant experience at the cost of 1.30 lakhs. Overall it is a good bike for 50 kmph speed only with the least riding comfort.

    Rahul Shaw

    This bike is fully comfortable for me. 3 people can ride comfortably. This tvs apache RTR red colour is awesome. Bike power starter is very good. This bike pickup is also very good I run this on highest speed at 113 km/h with solo ride. In this bike mileage is also good at 45-50 km/l. Maintenance is also not very costly.

    Deepak

    Style no comparsion with other bike. Apache is apache the scary eyes of rtr is so killing that no bike have.


    Engine performance, fuel economy and gearbox no need to say about performance everyone know the power of rtr. Also give fuel economy of 40 km per litre. Gearbox is smooth no issue while shifting in traffic.


    Ride quality & handling bike never leave the road ground whiile bend to its degree also give the best handling than other bike.


    Final words its feels better while driving the perfect handling makes tension free driving


    areas of improvement pls solve the vibration issue.

    Pros

    design,styling,look,power

    cons

    vibration after 50 speed

    Style looks good.


    Engine performance, fuel economy and gearbox from performance point of view it's a worst bike. Many manufacturing defects.


    Ride quality & handling u can't ride this bike due to its vibrations and cheap quality body design


    final words if you bike a bike from hyd, ignore tvs centers like golkonda motors and anjali tvs. They are selling defective bikes.

  • Apache rtr 160 my riding experience

    6 years ago


    Sunit Pawan Kujur

    The bike tvs apache 160 is one of my Favourite choice because its gives you a beautiful sporty looks but similar it can be used for daily usage ride. Also its best of 160 cc category for its price and low maintenance bike.

    .

    And about the handle controlling its best but of long ride it can pain on your back.

    .

    And during a long ride you can ride up-to 500 km then your bike gets too heated that can dangerous to ride.

    .

    Apache 160 body is not built good of its plastic quality it get damage easily.

    .

    Also about the maintenance its parts get little higher than pulsar parts ..

    .

    Its best for its price but its start vibrating from speed 70 you can just feel when you ride.

    I bought this bike 1 month ago and this bike is amazing also it's performance and reliability is great. The riding experience is decent for long rides. If your height is under 5 feet 11 inches you can go with this. I didn't know about the service because my first service was not completed. The overall bike is good you can go with this.

    Style no comparsion with other bike. Apache is apache the scary eyes of rtr is so killing that no bike have.


    Engine performance, fuel economy and gearbox no need to say about performance everyone know the power of rtr. Also give fuel economy of 40 km per litre. Gearbox is smooth no issue while shifting in traffic.


    Ride quality & handling bike never leave the road ground whiile bend to its degree also give the best handling than other bike.


    Final words its feels better while driving the perfect handling makes tension free driving


    areas of improvement pls solve the vibration issue.

    Pros

    design,styling,look,power

    cons

    vibration after 50 speed

  • Apache rtr 160 my riding experience

    6 years ago


    Sunit Pawan Kujur

    The bike tvs apache 160 is one of my Favourite choice because its gives you a beautiful sporty looks but similar it can be used for daily usage ride. Also its best of 160 cc category for its price and low maintenance bike.

    .

    And about the handle controlling its best but of long ride it can pain on your back.

    .

    And during a long ride you can ride up-to 500 km then your bike gets too heated that can dangerous to ride.

    .

    Apache 160 body is not built good of its plastic quality it get damage easily.

    .

    Also about the maintenance its parts get little higher than pulsar parts ..

    .

    Its best for its price but its start vibrating from speed 70 you can just feel when you ride.

    Harish Kumar Chandra

    I bought this bike 1 month ago and this bike is amazing also it's performance and reliability is great. The riding experience is decent for long rides. If your height is under 5 feet 11 inches you can go with this. I didn't know about the service because my first service was not completed. The overall bike is good you can go with this.

  • Okish bike for 80k

    8 years ago


    Harsh

    Bought this bike on nov 2014,


    style styles is pretty good, you may get alot of attention in rural areas etc. Looks good from all angles.


    Engine performance, fuel economy and gearbox engine refinement is below average, quite much vibration around 4000rpm and in footpegs above 70-80 km/h, though the pickup of bike is amazing. I achieved top speed of 113 km/h @ 8200rpm (speedo indicated).


    Ride quality & handling ride quality is good, you can corner the bike at 100 km/h, but before that one should consider changing those poor tyres provided by tvs, riding position is aggressive so you might get some back pain in long rides.


    Final words its ok bike for 80k for a daily rider, can give milage around 40-45 kmpl easily, the body frame is rust prone, so avoid putting bike outside in monsoon season.


    Areas of improvement refinement of engine, better quality body frame and other parts, after sales service.

    Pros

    pickup, looks, powerful front disc brake,

    cons

    poor quality tyres, unrefined engine, vibration in handlebars and footpegs, rust prone body frame.

  • My suggestion go for it guys

    2 years ago


    Ganesh

    I bought it in 2018 November. Bs4 model. After riding 35000 km I am writing this review. It's a wonderful feeling with this machine. Performance and maintenance is very good and mileage also. I am getting 52 km/l. Sound effect is very nice after Dominar bike but one thing it's vibrating 5 to 7000 rpm this is only bad thing about this bike, Others wise go for it guys.

  • TVS Apache RTR 160

    30 weeks ago


    Sandeep Dabral

    It has been more than 3 years since I purchased this bike in August 2020. At 40-50 kmph speed riding experience is okay but beyond that, the engine noise creeps in which is an irritating and unpleasant experience at the cost of 1.30 lakhs. Overall it is a good bike for 50 kmph speed only with the least riding comfort.

    2 years ago


    Rahul Shaw

    This bike is fully comfortable for me. 3 people can ride comfortably. This tvs apache RTR red colour is awesome. Bike power starter is very good. This bike pickup is also very good I run this on highest speed at 113 km/h with solo ride. In this bike mileage is also good at 45-50 km/l. Maintenance is also not very costly.
