Recently Asked User Questions

Q. Which one is better Apache 160 or apace 180?
  • TVS has dealt with the Apache RTR 160 performance issue and has now made the bike near-perfect, well, except of course those raised eye-brow-like DRLs, which we think are a polarizing aspect of the design. Factor in the kind of equipment and features on offer, and it becomes a no-brainer if you’ve got performance on your mind. On the other hand, TVS Apache RTR 180 is a fun-to-ride motorcycle with quick handling dynamics and a range of safety features. The razor-sharp handling makes it a hoot to ride and it is a value-for-money vehicle. Moreover, we would suggest you to take a test ride before making the final decision. Follow the link and select your desired city for dealership details.

Q. Which bike is better Ns160 or Apache 160 ?
  • While TVS has done well in reviving the Apache RTR 160 2V with a fuel-injected motor, it could have done better by offering it new bodywork and additional features, something it has done with the Apache RTR 160 4V. On the other hand, while the Bajaj Pulsar NS160 BS6 might not have many tangible features to justify the price hike due to BS6 norms, it more than makes up for it with raw performance. In fact, it is the most powerful motorcycle in its segment, making it ideal for enthusiasts who prioritize performance over anything else. Moreover, we'd suggest you to go for Bajaj NS 160 for its raw powerful engine and capable perimeter frame. For better understanding, we would suggest you to take a test ride and then take a final decision. You can find dealers here.
Q. Which is the better option for family bike between Honda unicorn and TV's Apache 160?
  • Offcourse rtr
  • Among the two, if you are looking for a calm and comfortable bike with a reliable and refined engine, then the Honda Unicorn would be a good option. Unicorn has always been the go-to bike if you were planning to buy a 150cc commuter and with the BS6 update, the Unicorn now gets a larger 163cc fuel-injected, air-cooled engine. With the old-school styling, it still remains a well-rounded motorcycle. On the other hand, if you are looking for sporty motorcycle with bits of modern elements, then you may opt for the TVS Apache RTR 160. Given the RTR 160 2V BS6’s low pricing, it is a viable and relevant stepping stone into the 160cc segment. Moreover, we would suggest you to take a test ride before making the final decision. Follow the link and select your desired city for dealership details.Read More: - Honda Unicorn vs TVS Apache RTR 160
