                        Best bike for daily city rides.
                        I chose the Apache RTR 160 because it has a sporty design good mileage and strong pickup which is perfect for daily city use. It feels stable at high speed and the exhaust note is enjoyable. The only downside is its slightly stiff suspension on bad roads and the seat could be softer for long rides. The ride quality has been smooth and the engine responds quickly which makes traffic rides comfortable. Handling is sharp and I feel confident while turning. On long rides I feel a little vibration and the riding position can cause mild back pain. Still it is enjoyable for both short and medium rides. Yes I would recommend the Apache RTR 160 to riders who want a stylish bike with good performance for daily use. It has reliable mileage and great road presence but those who want soft suspension or long touring comfort should take a proper test ride before deciding.

                        Lover of yamaha
                        Yamaha bike style and performance is good. When ever I go to ride i feel like I'm riding in super bike. Sound and performance is osm. But I'm disappointed from mileage bcz when I take this bike showroom people told me the mileage is 45kml but I got yet now 35-37 kml. But bike is osm All things are osm performance, style and design. I love his performance I never get disappointed at the time of ride. But one thing disappointed me that was milleage in showroom told me the mileage is 45 kml but yet now I get 35-37 kml. Yamaha performance is osm and I love them in 2023 i purchased fz-s yet now his performance was same and the servicing is also osm i love it. But try to solve the mileage the mileage is getting low too much.
