                  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.

                  I chose this bike because it is good bike for a middle class family with very good performance and good 160 cc engine with full power and stylish look and not much very high maintenance cost and it is very good for either is urban area or highway that's why I chose this bike. It is very comfortable bike for short or long people for ride with a good feature and its mileage is also very good with the 160 cc engine ever with a full power in engine. It has 3 riding modes also for ride that are very usable for bike. Yes I recommend this bike for a people who wants a good feature and a very good and power full engine. If anyone wants a good and powerful bike with a very good mid range mileage then I will suggest this bike for him.

                  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.

                  Feels Safe and Solid
                  I bought it because of the positive reviews online. Also liked the looks – simple but modern. Mileage and build were key points. This bike is easy to handle for occasional long trips. Checked few options but this one gave the best sitting comfort. Riding experience so far is very good. No major vibration, smooth gear shifting, and comfortable seat. Feels safe at moderate speeds. Engine power stays constant, and no heating problem. It’s comfortable for both rider and pillion. Good bike for daily riders who care more about practicality than style. It delivers mileage and stability without any hassle. Highly recommend for those who ride both short and long distances. Comfortable, steady and gives honest fuel performance.

                  This bike is awesome and stable
                  I choose this bike because of performance and mileage. Everything is perfect in the bike and the look and design is really awesome. It looks like a racer bike. This bike suit me a lot because I am 5.6. The performance of this bike is really awesome. I can play with this bike and this is really awesome for cruising or for racing because it has high performance gears and stability of the bike is awesome. I will recommend this to buy because I get sufficient mileage for city rides and if I want to go to highway, I can get around 36 to 37 which is really nice for long tours and rides. It comes with very less weight.

                  joy ....very bad experience
                  Buying experience not so good, riding comfort is too bad, look is good, performence is not so good, handle bar and rider body in between distance unmatched, this is very uncomfortable for long drive like 40 to 50 km, its make pressure on hand, build quality also bad, a new bike also make noise from the body part.

                  Most Underrated Bike
                  Wanted a low cc but stylish and retro motorcycle and here XSR became by my favourite. It can be easily maneuver in city traffics so that you don't have to be struggle to drive. Light weight as well. Gets you great mileage of around 45 plus. The riding posture is aggressive and yes, you can feel the ride and that's what actually matters. The seat is quite hard but instead of replacing it you can have a s seat cover of 400 rupees which would make it but softer. If you want entry level retro bike or kind of new into riding culture have it, feel it and then eventually according to your needs upgrade. It is stylish, you stop at red signal, people stop and ask about the bike. Most underrated bike you can say.

                  XSR 155 in India review
                  Engine reliability is very good, reviews from the international audience suggests, the neo retro design looks damn good on roads. I've got so many compliments over the looks. Performance is insane too. The ride can be difficult to get used to at first but it gets better with time. The engine is super powerful and vibrations are very less. You can feel the power as you drive. The bike is pretty light and agile. And as you rev beyond 7k RPM, the VVA kicks in and the experience just get drastically better. I highly recommend this bike. Comfort might be one of the problems at the start but it gets better over time. Also, the customisation options are insane. You can just tune it to how you want it. Possibilities are endless.
