There are different categories of motorcycles - cruisers, sports bikes, offroaders, tourers, café racers, scramblers, bobbers, sidecars and even mopeds, but in India only the naked street bikes rule the roost. My review shall be of one of the most formidable competitor in this segment: the TVS Apache RTR 160.
Amidst all the reviews of KTM’s, Pulsar’s, Ninjas, Enfield etc. there is only a few bikes which had maintained its legacy like that of the legendary TVS Apache RTR series. Available both in 160 and 180 cc variants, it is the most affordable commuter-cum-street racing bike in the sub 1 lac/- segment. It is for this reason that this bike is still selling in good numbers without any technical modification since long. The word RTR ( Race Throttle Response) lives upto its name of unleashing the beast within this monster on two wheels.
