TVS Apache RTR 180 ABS and as to why it has been first choice for me.Not much differs between the RTR 180 and the abs versions wise.I am very concerned with specially 2 wheeler is that in rainy seasons the bike can skid and cause a lot of problem.Also uneven breaking at higher speeds does result in accidents so choose the ABS(Anti lock breaking system)version.
Compared to the bajaj bikes which I don’t like as they suffer from engine noise(thanks to dtsi).
Apache was best option I can go for.Generally with indian roads in monsoons there is a high probability of the wheels getting locked which would lead to skidding of the bike whereas with anti lock breaking system the tvs180rtr remains perfectly in control.The handling of the bike is superb at turns and you already can feel the confidence while you ride this amazing machine.On a non-abs bike the rear wheels lift off in case of emergency breaking which can in turn cause you to lose control and meet with accident.Safer and secure option is to pay a bit extra and get the abs version like I did.Generally if you are somebody who races a lot or rides above 70 should consider this option.
