Most people would write comment even before they understood their bike well, so I decided to write it after I completed 20, 000 kms. Now, I can say things that I liked or did not like abt my bike, black apache 160 RTR. In one word, it is an "amazing" bike. I made trips from pune to kelshi and from kelshi to ratnagiri (all along the costal viallages), the bike travelled 900+ kms before reaching home on the 3rd day, and say what, I never felt tired the whole time. its control, reliability, mileage and agility is all remarkable. the engine still revs like new, the exhaust still sounds great, pickup is as quick as new and braking is still sharp. I touched 126km/hr on NH4 and the bike stood its ground firmly.
So, summary: After 20 thousand kms the bike does not seem to age of the wear and tear it faced. another thing, I raced pulsar 150 to 90km/h and it started vibrating whereas on apache RTR at the same speed, it feels like riding at 60-70km/h only! good bike. thanks to TVS. visit https://anupamhobbies.googlepages.com/ for the pics (photography is my hobby) of the bike and the places that I travelled.
