टीवीएस अपाचे [2006]

It was 2006-07 when i purchased tvs make apache 150 cc, the advertised that time played on tv channel was cheetah endorsing apache 150, the brand was catchy and it was launched in 150 segment by first indian bike manufacturing company tvs, competing with many foreign companies maker like honda (hero honda that time), and yamaha. The bike design was really sturdy and the ride was smooth compare to many other models and became popular with many youth and of course that time i was also youth. Riding experience was no less than a cruiser sailing in the sea , smooth , balanced and comfortable. That's was i think only with the model of apache 150 segment ( first model).The apache 150 2006-07 model was like a bull and it's sturdy looks still make you crush for it, later the company changed the look in their 160 version and gave more sporty and racer like look to the bike, the performance of apache 150 cc was more refined than apache 160 rtr which later lacks smoothness and balanced ride compare to former version. If you say, what is best in ride i will suggest go apache 150 cc , you can call it mini version of former bullet model. Can take load and still run with care and smoothness.A quarterly service or half yearly servicing is enough for an apache 150 cc 2006-07 but yes when it comes to repair a part/parts , a spare part costs a cut in your pocket. Hence i will suggest go for a quarterly servicing , that will be best to prevent huge repair or maintenance cost. Pros: 1. Smooth riding 2. Strong engine 3. Sturdy look 4. 5 speed gearbox. 6. Low maintenance. Cons: 1. High repairing cost 2. Poor instant speed 3. Digital meter absent 4. Frequent wiring problem.
