Q. What's changed in Apache BS6 and when it will be launched?
  • The power and torque have been reduced in the BS 6 version. The look has been facelifted and gives more premium feel to the machine. Headlight is upgraded from halogen to full LED which has better luminance. There is no carburetor variant in BS6 as Fi is kept standard. Price for dual disc variant has got up by around 8000. Exhaust has been made more crispier which resembles to KTM. The electric start mechanism has improved, you hear almost no motor noise on pressing the start button.The engine is more tuned to race and RTFi (race tuned fuel injection) has been added. Overall BS6 variant is 30-40% better
  • The most exciting update for the RTR 160 is definitely the bump in power. While the current-gen RTR 160’s engine is the familiar 159.7cc air-cooled one, it now makes 16.04PS and 13.85Nm, 0.51PS more but 0.05Nm less than its predecessor. The new bike is also 2kg lighter than the outgoing model. TVS has replaced the previous-gen RTR 160’s semi-analogue cluster with a new digital unit that facilitates Bluetooth connectivity and also boasts TVS’ SmartXonnect tech with voice assist, a segment-first feature. Also on offer are features like turn-by-turn navigation, gear position indicator and shift assist, call and notification alerts and more. That said, only the top-of-the-line 2022 RTR 160 gets Bluetooth connectivity. The LCD console also has three riding modes: Sport, Urban and Rain, which can be changed on-the-fly, and alter the throttle mapping as well as ABS sensitivity. It has already been launched. 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.
  • It don't have any more change in bs4 you get blackish light in speedometer and now you will get the blue light the major change in the bike is it's bs6 engine and some little amount of cut and sketch to give the more sporty look to the bike and no more.

Q. Which is the better option for family bike between Honda unicorn and TV's Apache 160?
  • 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

    Nimble and Agile Commuter 

    No doubt, the TVS Apache RTR 160 stands out with it's a quick response and cornering maneuverability, that make it a dream of a ride for city traffic. It's customers prefer these motorized bike for its notable peppy engine, excellent response from throttle and its low weight chassis, which makes weaving through traffic very easy. The sharp looks, cozy chairs, and sturdy brakes receive nearly the full mark. On other hand, a number of drivers emphasize the need for better transportation fuel economy and the requirements for an improved suspension system for the smoother ride on a rocky road.

    Most comfortable and great performer bike 

    The engine of this bike comes with the great performance and gives sporty looking ride and the ride quality i like the most with great comfort. The design of this bike is muscular and pretty nice and also the handling of this bike is very good and is a great family bike with high comfort but in the corners it is not good. The suspension setup is really very nice and the engine performance is very high with good power and is the feature rich bike and TVS Apache RTR 160 now gives smooth engine but tyres could be more better.

    Very awesom 

    Really outstanding performance, It is very awesome bike just like it look, It is a lot more comfort to ride than other bike because its handle is not too low, There is a limit kept due to which there is no neck pain.I ride this this bike since 2018 this is my first bike in my life and my choice was quite accurate, There is no doubt about that many of friends had said that the mileage will be very less because the bike is very heavy and the cc is 249, So there will be a little compromise in the mileage but but it did not happen, Just like i used to get in the beginning.Now perhaps it has reduced to some extent.But i am comfortable and i am very happy as much as everyone had talk about the mileage no work was done i get good mileage on as average.In my opening at the time of buying a car or bike before listening to anyone's opinion, You should first think for yourself whether it is right for me or not.When your mind says that it is right for you, Then you can take it because by listening to someone else, You may also regret it later.
