The Brand New TVS Apache RTR 200 4V comes with an amazing look and 4 valves engine. Though the bike has come to the indian market with filling all the expectations, I have found some issues in this Bulky bike.
1st of all, It comes with the 5(Five) gear pattern whereas its competitor Pulsar 200 NS from the house of Bajaj comes with the 6(Six) gear pattern.
The engine of Apache RTR 200 comes with oil cooling system whereas the engine of 200 NS comes with Liquid cooling system.
As I now liquid cooling system is very beneficial when its about long drive. so it was a major thing.
TVS assured to launch its abs version but till now it is not launched. But Bajaj had launched the abs version of the 200 NS few weeks ago.
When The Apache RTR 200 4V goes above 6500-7000 rpm you can feel some vibration on the handle bar.
The bike is very comfortable to ride in city, but not that much comfortable while riding on highways. Because the seat is compact. The pillion comfort is also poor because of the seat.
And the last thing is the chain of this bike always get loose but none of its competitor has this problem.
The bike is overall good but it has issues which I mentioned above. So investing money for a machine which has inbuilt issues is not a choice of wise I guess.
