hey mouthshut !!
why cant I write more than one review on same product???
i have to modify my title and content every time...
At least it should come in the filter MOST RECENT NA !
OTHERWISE WHO WILL READ IT THINKING AS OLD !!!
so my apache is 40 days newer now !
covered 2000kms !!!!
i have some doubts..and expectations to share..
between the speed of 50-60 the vibration increases
but as u cross it, even till 90kmph(i have tried it on bangalore-mysore superhighway)
it becomes honey dew smooooth !!!
Strange na !!!
i will discuss it with tvs guys during 2nd servicing..
also since I ride very roughly and abrupt accelerations for shorter durations for fun..
sometimes I have noticed the milege of 43kmpl also !!!
but guys it depends on rider, riding conditions, pillions weight and yes, the quantity and quality and purity of petrol ...
always take petrol from main area pumps ..
as remotely located pumps do fishy business..
and yes I unknowingly did wheeie too !!!
i was bored of traffic so as traffic light turned green, I released clutch on high rpm of 3-3.5 and felt for a moment that the bike is on rear wheel..
it was exciting but dangerous too...
and with pillion I have left behind many pulsars on highway at speeds of 90-100kmph even tvs serviceman had said not to go beyond 60 after 1st service !
so No doubts on my Apache. ok????
OLD REVIEW:
hey,
i bought it on 15th March 2006, the day they launched it in bangalore.
and probably I m the first one to buy, at least from indiranagar Tristar..
and now, I feel as if I m flying..
from Koromangla to Domlur it takes just 3.5 km by inner ring road
& at least once, I m coming through sarjapur outer ring road- airport road - domlur, total 22 kms !!!!!
Kya karoon control hi nahi hota !!!!!
wherever I go, people keep on staring..
leave bikers even those from santro, scorpio and cabs..
i m tired with repeated questions to explain my apache..
Ya, so mine is silver color(elite choice),
the gear ratio is excellent..
u can easily go on 25kmph in 5th gear,
and again rave up till 50kmph, no problem..
The gear shift is sooooo smooooth
compared to my friends 3 pulsars I was riding before..
and the sound is just so deep and smooth , any gear..
currently, I m strictly maintaining 50kmph uppermark..
and riding more and more to reach the 1st servicing mark..
i will start monitoring the milege as it goes to reserve..
i just love my babe..
when when I told my girlfriend that I m going to meet my 2nd love, she just ran to bite me !!!!
currently, we both r seeing bangalore in the nth dimension..
everything is so pleasant..
Thanks to the supporting weather.
so Guys, come fall in love with this beauty..
and I m proud of my decision to wait for it leaving pulsar, avenger and unicorn...
