                  good bike rtr apache
                  It is a very good bike for racing, but the maintenance cost is high. Otherwise, the bike is excellent. The waist catches on it, but the brake control is very good. Chain problems are very common. Whether the pickup is low or high, it performs well.

                  TVs rtr apeche
                  The TVS Apache series (such as the RTR 160 and 200 4V) is widely praised for offering aggressive styling, class-leading power, responsive handling, and high-tech features like riding modes and smart connectivity at an affordable price, though riders note some engine vibrations at high speeds and a slightly firm ride. A visual walk through and test ride highlighting the features of the updated Apache lineup.

                  A Durable Bike with Excellent Ride Quality
                  I chose this bike because I love riding the Apache. I haven't found the same level of comfort in any other bike in this segment and the riding posture is also very comfortable and perfectly balanced and relaxed on every ride. The ride quality of Apache RTR 160 has been very good so far. For long routes, city ride the most important things are comfort and riding posture, and that's what really makes this bike's ride quality better. Everyone has their own choice, but I would definitely choose this bike in this segment. As per current regulations, bikes are subject to scrapper after 15 years, and if this bike is properly maintained, it still run like day one even after 15 years. It's a very durable machine.

                  performance and look
                  Look and performance of bike is very good..new innovation of the bike is retro model. Compare to other vehicle cost is low and mileage is also good when comparing with 250CC Bike but disappintment isn't 6 gears, try to overcome from that. Rest over all I am suggesting my friends also to purchase this one.
