First propelled in 2006, TVS Apache 160 has been a standout amongst the most prevalent bikes in its classification. So as to additionally enhance its business, TVS has presented the all-new Apache RTR 160 4V in the Indian market. Accessible with two motor variations – carburettor and fuel infusion – the new Apache is going for recently propelled Pulsar 160NS and the Gixxer. We as of late got over opportunity to test this cruiser at the organization's Hosur based test track office.
TVS APACHE RTR 160 4V Design -
Apache 160 is as of now an attractive looking cruiser, yet with new structure it looks way present day. The styling of the new model is motivated from its senior kin – the Apache RTR 200 4V. Truth be told, the front of the two motorbike look precisely same which is something to be thankful for. It looks much more forceful than the past model, highlighting boomerang-formed LED daytime running lights and reduced fairing.
Side profile also appears to be like its greater kin, with the exception of the couple of inconspicuous changes. The fuel tank currently includes new body illustrations (checkered banner) that implies its hustling DNA. Rather than split seats, it includes the single-piece unit to offer agreeable ride for both rider and pillion. Different highlights incorporate new seat cowls, new fumes suppressor and new body boards with differentiation shade.
The back too appears to be like the Apache RTR 200 4V, including also structured LED tail-light. The handlebar is a regular single piece unit for progressively upstanding position. While the past model accompanies part-simple and part advanced instrument reassure, the new Apache RTR 160 4V gets an all-new computerized support. The reassure in the FI rendition gets outfit move pointer and a lap time, be that as it may, these highlights are absent on the carburettor variation's board. Regarding fit and complete, the cruiser gets great quality materials and shift gear has additionally been sourced from the RTR 200 4V.
TVS APACHE RTR 160 4V Engine and Performance -
The new Apache RTR 160 4V now includes the most incredible motor in its alliance. It is fueled by an all-new 159.7cc single-barrel, air-cooled motor with an oil cooler for better warmth the board. It is accessible with two forms – carburettor and fuel-infusion. While the carb variation offers 16.5bhp, the FI demonstrate is evaluated at 16.8bhp. Torque figure stays indistinguishable for the two variations, evaluated at 14.8Nm. The motor has 4-valve head, which enables it to inhale better. The better air-siphoning results into better burning proficiency, which converts into better eco-friendliness and execution. As I tried the carburettor show first, and the main thing I saw is that the motor offers enough power on lower and mid-revs. Nonetheless, the best end of carburettor adaptation could have been something more.
In the other side, the fuel-infused rendition has better mid and top of the line. However, I felt the bicycle set aside its own opportunity to get speed on lower gearshifts. While the FI show offers better throttle reaction and refinement, the carburettor display is progressively enjoyable to-ride. I figured out how to hit a best speed simply over 110kmph, however there was sufficient power left in the bicycle to cross the asserted 114kmph. The initial 4 changes accompany short gear proportions, however the fifth rigging has greater proportion that offers more power on higher revs. There is vibrations post 7,000rpms, which always develops on higher revs.
TVS APACHE RTR 160 4V Ride and Handling -
The cruiser has a reasonable ride position. While the level handlebar offers upstanding and loosened up position, the slight-raise set foot pegs give it an energetic character. The bicycle is far more steady than the past model, and the most compelling motivation behind this is the new and stiffer twofold support split-outline undercarriage. With longer wheelbase and monoshock raise suspension unit, the bike transforms into corners with greater soundness. Nonetheless, it doesn't feel as flickable as the past model. The bicycle rides on 17-inch amalgam wheels wrapped with TVS Remora tires, which offers not too bad hold. While the plate variation gets 130/70 area raise tire, the drum variation has 110/80 segment tire. The slowing mechanism feels sufficient; in any case, the rapid braking could have been something more.
With new structure, highlights and all the more incredible motor, the new Apache RTR 160R feels way preferable and develop over the past model. It accompanies forceful styling, a punchier motor and offers incredible ride and taking care of. Be that as it may, there are vibrations post 7,000rpm and fast braking could have been moved forward. Generally speaking, it is at present the a standout amongst the most agreeable 160cc bikes on special in India.
