Recently Asked User Questions
Q. Which is the best bike compared with Honda Hornet, TVS Apache RTR 160 4v, Yamaha FZ S 3.0 in mileage, pickup, comfort, price, service and spares?
- If we compare Fi version of all bike then i think pickup of TVS Apache will be more, according to mileage 1st will be Hornet then Yamaha and then Apache but the difference will be only 4-5 kms.If we come to comfort i own Apache and i didnt find any problem with comfort, and for pricing you should contact dealers in the city.
- I have carb. version of apache its good that your bike is giving such a mileage.
- Bro U have the older version of apache i think The rtr 160 4v gets almost 59-60 on the highways and minimum 48 in city i think u will change ur opinion
Q. Which is the best Apache 160 4v or pulsar ns 160?
- The Pulsar NS 160 ticks all the right boxes when it comes to style, performance, ride and handling, save for refinement. The new NS 160 is a worthy contender and makes a strong case for itself in this highly competitive 160cc segment. On the other hand, if a bike has to survive in the cut-throat 160cc two-wheeler segment, it needs to be competitively priced and pack enough performance to keep riders happy. Thankfully, the Apache RTR 160 4V delivers well on both fronts with class leading features and a price tag that starts at Rs 81,490 (ex-showroom for carb, single-disc variant). However, it doesn’t feel as confident under hard braking as the Bajaj Pulsar NS 160 or the Honda Hornet. That said, the Apache RTR 160 4V is not only the most refined RTR we have ridden till date but also one of the most refined 160cc motorcycles to be ever produced in India. Do take a test ride in order to judge your riding comfort.

Q. Which variant of RTR 160 4v is better fi or the carburetor?
View More Questions
- The claimed mileage of TVS Apache RTR 160 4V is 60kmpl. Although, our experts has tested its carburetted on road and found that it gives class leading figures of 50.9kmpl in the city and 56.1kmpl on the highway. Also, mileage can be differ and depends on one's riding style and how it is maintained.Though we’re yet to test its FI variant, there is a minor difference in the refinement levels of the FI and the carburetted bikes though. The FI is just that little bit smoother, and also offers up a slightly sharper throttle response. And when you’re in the very upper band of the rev range, the FI doesn’t feel out of steam. The carburetted bike on the other hand feels a little gruntier, though it is a little gruff as well. But in many ways the carbed bike feels more enjoyable to ride, thanks to its slightly punchier power delivery in the mid range. In case of long rides, it might bother you to take a break due to its aggressive riding position.
- I love carburettor variant because we can tune the carburettor.. and low maintanence and if there's a problem in fuel injection you can't modify you have to buy a new fi system which is costly... there is no such a big difference in mileage is rarely 2-4 km and i don't think it's a big deal
- See obviously fi varient is better..but if you ride on long routes then i will suggest you to opt for the carburettor varient because if in any case your bike brokes down then the carburettor engine can be repaired by anyone... on the other hand the fi engine is a bit more complex to repair.
