                        Blend of both style and practicality
                        RTR 180 and 160 2V both may not feel so comfortable at first and it require some time to get used to over long urban commutes. Good for touring as well, best with speeds upto 80-90 kmph and vibrates a lot after that. Decent mileage. Easy on pocket ownership cost. Became more affordable post GST 2.0. Go for it if you are looking for a motorcycle that is simple yet sporty.

                        Apache RTR 180
                        It feels torn out when it goes above 75 kmph but it has good pickup and it has very good riding posture and the bike is best for highways because it does not wobble on high speed and has very good stability. It has many cons and many pros depend on the usage and different perspectives for different users and different age group. It is best for youth because it gives very good mileage so overall this is a positive review. Yeah, For sure, I recommend this bike because it has decent look and good performance in a decent price range with the branding of TVS and I am using this bike from 2012 and till now my bikes engine has opened only 1 time and I have completed 75000 kms from this bike and I'm very satisfied.

                        Good mileage on highway and pickup is mind blowing, I love this bike this is the best bike for daily use, i'm using very roughly and i spent 250 rupees of petrol in this bike, and cover 150 km smoothly, that's why i love this bike. This bike is very comfortable with my experience because I drive this bike daily approx 120/130 kms using 180-200 ruppes of petrol in that also bike will save some petrol in the performance of controlling this the best bike. This is the best bike under budget, excellent for middle class family because mileage is good and low cost maintenance, and budget friendly bike, and i love the bike look i don't face any problems in this bike, and one more thing. Company want to improve this type of bike gear system because this bike gear problem is a major problem.

                        Honda shine one of the best all rounder 2 wheeler
                        Excellent bike with smooth performance, great mileage, and low maintenance. The Honda Shine is comfortable for daily commuting and reliable for long-term use. I’ve had a very good ownership experience and would recommend it to anyone looking for a practical and dependable bike. This is one of the all rounder in two wheeler.

                        Honda shyne me bahut problem face karni karti hai
                        I already had a Honda Shine 125 cc which was working better, keeping that in mind, I bought my second Honda Shine 125 cc in November 2025, but I felt that the quality was compromised in it. Earlier I used to praise Honda's engine a lot, but not anymore. My first Honda Shine was running very well so I did not buy it whereas my new bike is having a lot of problems like engine oil leakage and gear shifting and I am very sad to see that. Now I will not tell anyone to buy Honda Shine. Compared to the old Honda Shine, the new Honda shine is made of very poor quality. The metal used in it is also of very poor quality. The engine is losing oil very fast and the gears in the gearbox are also slipping.

                        I purchases shine bike because of this bike condition, seating capacity, break, clutch everything is fine working. My neighbours also chose this bike, many people are using this. Wheels are in very good condition. This bike is good for long journey 300 kms at a time. No pains, smooth drive, comfortable riding, no shaking, two members capacity in ride. Offroad driving is also very easy. Lot of people driving this. My neighbour use this and suggested lot of people this bike, used in now days but small major problems faced and another things are very good. Present middle class family can purchase this, I seen this type so I also purchased this.

                        honda shine classic
                        Honda shine has so many features that every person required, It's about long run and its been kind to us, i mean honda reliability is pretty good, its basic but gives good mileage, pretty everything nothing extra thats it for me. Its been pretty good i mean its has issues like power dop that gear shifting becomes a ritual for this low cc bikes cant argue, but long rides feels so smother and good definetly smoother point thats it. yeah, if youre riding in rural and urban areas it goes both ways smoother rides on the flats roads, never had a issue with thing except for the fact it looks so basic, and i can get over it, thats me except its pretty good.

                        Sport is very smooth and noiseless. It is comfortable to me and with my son easily to handle with traffics. TVS Sports is primarily used for applications requiring high power to weight ratios off-road racing dirt biking and motocross. due to their light weight and simple construction quick acceleration, there were formerly popular for commuter bikes and mopeds, Road side ride in TVS sport is very smoothly Highway it can be used with mileage 75kmpl it is Highway road and local panchayat road handle with nice bike is formerly popular for commuter bikes but today the are mostly restricted specialized, closed course competition or vintage riding due to high emissions. Office use to agriculture use it is very helpful with us so i recommended this bike is a great motorcycle to have the bike can be lot beating but it will continue to offer great amount of comfort and performance through, plus the fuel efficiency figure is decent too and its might ring some bell and that because sport in the lineup and it is expected to garner good sales the Office user and Professionals.

                        The best bike
                        This is a family bike and its mileage is also very good. It gave me the highest mileage of 68, so I choose this bike. I have driven it for more than 26000 kms, till now but the seating position is best and handling is also very good and the engine does not even hit the engine. It totally depends on you, If you want a mileage bike go for tvs sports, but someone who wants high speed, and stability they should stay away from it. It can get highly vibrating at high speed. Also comfort not good for this bike, for long ride, you can experience back pain. I have gone through various roads, I live in Mumbai, I have even gone to Puna from my bike, with my friends, with full petrol, still got petrol left when I reached prayagraj. Overall a very excellent bike, if mileage is considered.

                        TVS, a milage killer
                        This is my first bike, gifted to me by my father, the bike has great mileage, I have gone through various roads, I live in varanasi, I have even gone to prayagraj from my bike, with my friends, with full petrol, still got petrol left when I reached prayagraj. Overall a very excellent bike, if mileage is considered. The bike is very good, the best positive is its mileage and low maintenance, I can easily able to get a mileage of 50 kmpl after 9 years of usage. The main negative of the bike is that it start to vibrate when I take it to very high speed, and the seat is uncomfortable for long journey. It totally depends on you, If you want a mileage bike go for tvs sports, but someone who wants high speed, and stability they should stay away from it. It can get highly vibrating at high speed. Also comfort not good for this bike, for long ride, you can experience back pain.

                        Whatever review I have given, I have taken it from
                        This is a family bike and its mileage is also very good. It gave me the highest mileage of 68, so I choose this bike I have driven it for more than 26000 kms till now but the seating position is best and handling is also very good and the engine does not even hit the engine. The mileage performance of this bike is very good but it is a very light bike, due to which this bike is not for young age boy but it is very good for old age boy , the light of this bike is good and it goes to a long distance. This bike is good at its price, no other bike in that price will be able to give such good mileage. I did not buy this bike from the showroom because I bought it second hand. Ever since I bought this bike, whenever I have to go anywhere, I do not have to worry about the mileage because it gives a lot of mileage.So I will recommend to buy this.
