Apache RTR 160 for Race
TVS was out of my list as I came across a lot of quality issue rumours, I repeat RUMOURS about it. But thanks to my long time no see friend who had his 2 year old apache rtr on which I had a short ride. Just one word. MINDBLOWING! Not just in terms of perfomance but so suprised on the price as well. I had the test ride on this monster on diwali of 2009(I loved riding it so I wanted to ride it again), booked it on the same day, and got it delivered on the next 1 week. My first 1000kms with my bike was the hardest times I had. My right wrist was constantly cursing me for not twisting it, as so many silly craps were riding fast ahead me. But for the sake of my bike's perfomance and life, I had to take those curses and tame that monster within 40-45kmph.
The cursing phase came to an end soon, as I would travel 40kms a day. The next min I had crossed my 1000kms, I stopped my bike and had some refreshments and started receiving blissful blessings from my right wrist. It is indeed a Rev Happy Machine. The light weight of the bike and the astounding figure of 15.2bhp, together delivers you 60kmph in the shortest time possible. The company claims 4.8secs for 0-60kmph, but my best is still stuck up with 5.1 secs. I should still master with my monster.
My monster would easily compete till 200cc class and put the 150cc's to shame, 180cc's neck to neck and wins at last and finally a tough and equal competition to 200cc's. But as per that bloody Newton's law my bike can fight and win only 150cc's with a pillion. An average 13.1nm torque contributes that.
Handling of this bike is miserable.but only till the first 3 hrs(in my case). After that passing through very narrow spaces, even which is risky to pass about with a RX100, is like passing a knife through butter. so precise and easy. Thanks to clip-on's. This also helps in a very good and eye-catching leanings in corners.
