Q. Which is value for money TVS Apache RTR 160 or Honda Xblade?

Apache is a very long bike, if you are tall enough, then you can hold the handlebars with comfort, if not, then back and shoulderpain is certain. if you are somewhere between 5'4 to 5'8 then go for xblade.
Rtr 160 have vibration problem n also balance is nt good according to me. So i would suggest X blade over Rtr. No vibration at d speed of 100 kmph, n also balance is better than Rtr.
If rtr is carburated then good otherwise Honda x blade is best

Q. Which is best for mileage and comfort among Honda Xblade ABS or Apache RTR 160?

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 at its price. 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. Apache RTR 160 and XBlade, both bikes have similar fuel efficiency but XBlade provide better riding posture and comfort.

Xblade giving 60 milage

Q. Which one is the best xblade or hornet

The Honda X-Blade shares its motor with the Hornet 160R. But the 162.71cc, air-cooled, single-cylinder engine puts out 14PS of power at 8500rpm and 13.9Nm of torque at 6000rpm, which is 1.5PS and 1Nm less than the Hornet 160R. The motor is mated to a 5-speed gearbox. The X-Blade looks a lot more appealing than the Hornet and the Unicorn 160. The only miss here then is the lack of any kind of braking aids. The stopping power on the bike, though, feels lacking. The brakes have decent bite but desperately lack feel. The CB Hornet 160R is for the discerning rider who is looking for a sporty and premium 160cc motorcycle that offers looks, more performance and better safety, thanks to the optional ABS. On the other hand, young riders who are under a strict budget may find the X-Blade alluring, thanks to the touring-friendly ergonomics and an aggressive design language.

I have driven Trigger previously. I have driven Pulsar 180 also. Now, I own Honda XBlade. But both of Honda bikes.... I felt that these are ordinary bikes behind the garb of Honda. I would prefer Pulsar 180 bike most on point of power...pickup if selected out of these three bikes. But Pulsar 180 bike had one drawbacks like its handle felt heavy on drivers' shoulders.

Q. Which is best bike Bajaj pulsar 150 or Apache RTR 160?

The Bajaj Pulsar 150 still remains a great option if you’re looking for an entry-level 150cc motorcycle. The motor offers likeable performance with a hint of brashness which made the Pulsar brand so popular among the youth, and being a Bajaj offering, it has been priced aggressively as well. On the other hand, Apache is known for its quick handling dynamics and rev-happy engine, the TVS Apache is one fun-to-ride motorcycle in its class. Thankfully, the Apache RTR 160 4V delivers well on both fronts with class-leading features. 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.Bajaj Pulsar 150 STD gives a mileage of 44.67 kmpl in city and 56.93 kmpl on the highway as claimed by the Automotive Research Association of India (ARAI). Apache RTR 160 4V gives 60 Kmpl mileage as claimed by TVS. Though we have tested its on-road performance of carburetted version and we found that it returned 50.9kmpl in the city and managed to deliver the mileage of 56.1kmpl on the highway. Mileage also depends on the riding style and how it is maintained.Do take the test ride for both the bikes to pick one satisfying your needs and requirements.Click on the given link to get your nearest dealership details: https://www.zigwheels.com/bikes/dealers
According to me pulser 150 is best bike as compared to tvs apache RTR 160 pulser gives best milage around 50 kmpl low maintenance cost stylish look for daily commuter. coming to Apache RTR 160 sporty bike best for long rider as well as daily commuting RTR gives milage around 45 kmpl , better braking system and its comes with single channel ABS pulser still did not get ABS in 150 segment but it will expect in April. Finally choose bike which is best suit to you according yo your hight and wieght and my final suggestions is test drive bike before you purchase it.
TVS and Bajaj fans have always been like the two sides of a coin none accepting the other. The Bajaj Pulsar 150 is built for the people who want a great bike for daily commute. It has the essence of a sporty looking and feeling bike and does the job easily, carrying you around town or on the highway. While the TVS Apache RTR 160 is more sturdy, fast, agile, aggressive, but maintaining practicality. Both the bikes are good but on my vote, I would the RTR.
