Q. I bought new Apache RTR 160 4V Carburettor version just 2 days back. I am facing an issue in electric start. It takes much time to start using electrical switch. Also I tried using kick start then also it took some time after multiple attempts. Is there an possible issue or it happens in new bike? I faced this issue in the morning around 9:40 AM and it was little cold during the night.

The spark plug has to be cleaned again. Please take it to the showroom you bought and show it. They will fix it for free. Winter is not a problem(unless it goes less than 10c). A new bike shouldn't have a starting problem. : By Sudheer | 2 weeks ago

Q. When ABS system available for 160 4V

The Indian Government has enforced the ABS mandate rule for all bikes (newly launched & existing) with engine capacity greater than 125cc from April next year. In April this year, the Government made ABS compulsory for all bikes (125cc and above) that are going to be launched henceforth. So, it might be possible that TVS Apache RTR 160 4V will get ABS but as on now there is no official update regarding its ABS version form the brand. : By Zigwheels | 11 months ago

Q. Is it comfortable in city traffic - Apache 160 4V?

Yes, it is comfortable for city rides. Apache is known for its quick handling dynamics and rev-happy engine, the TVS Apache is one fun-to-ride motorcycle in its class. 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. : By Zigwheels | 1 year ago

Q. Is it good to buy - Apache 160 4V?

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. : By Zigwheels | 1 year ago
Yes definitely : By Kshitiz | 2 months ago

Q. I have heard about Apache RTR 160 4v, that the gear shift is hard and noisy sound is produced during application of breaks. According to the reviews that I have seen on zigwheels, bikewale and bikedekho apps, some say that mileage is dropping from 30-35 kmpl. Please tell me the exact mileage of the bike.

The problem you mentioned is a rare case any for this you can lodge a complain to the company. : By Sunil | 11 months ago
Who said u ....I have that bike....no voice in gear shifting and it's easy...in Apache it's gear box are loved for easing shifting gear...no sound while applying brake.......my bike has been reached too 5229 km and there is no dropping mileage of the bike..... : By Kunaal | 11 months ago

Hello I have purchased tvs apache rtr 160 4v fi 3 moths back and i am writing this review after riding the bike around 2500 kms.1. Buying experience 1.Its good i rate 2/5. During the sales tvs company claims 60 kmpl is the mileage and average mileage is around 50 .But you hardly get 35-40 mileage which could be worst if you are expecting mileage and a daily commuter better don’t buy if not if have to spend a lot only on filling the petrol 2.Riding experience 1.Its good i rate 4/5 3.Details about looks, performance etc.1.Looks : it has a great look which has convinced me to buy this bike. 2.Performance is moderate on the performance of this bike . It has a great engine power but worst mileage. I hardly get 35-40 mileage which is most worst part of this bike. 4. Servicing and maintenance.During the sales they don’t mention on the servicing and maintenance part but this bike has to be filled with a special synthetic oil which costs around 700 per filling which is double the cost of general oil . 5.Pros and cons 1.Pros : good performance in terms of engine power 2.Cons : worst mileage hardly 35 kmpl and high maintenance than a general bikes in this segment.

Hi guys my name is shravan i have recently purchased Apache RTR 4v fi Abs varient in Hyderabad. I have a problem wiy my bike.When i turn on the ignition and do not start the bike the (mil) malfunction led will be there untill i start the bike.So i have taken the bike to service center they are saying that this is no an issue.As per the booklet with is attached with the bike it clearly says that if the MIL light is blinking on the bike there is some issue with the bike.Can some one help me whether anyone have observed the sameMy contact number is 984****948 please let me know if any one is also facing the same issue

As per company It's a race machine, but for me it's a race machine to run towards service center again and again.issues- It's heats up too much, Gear Problem, Gear Free Problem, starting problem, Headlight flicking problem, and yes- it sounds like a Tractor; even worse than that. I don't know how TVS says- it is best in class bike. According to me- it's a heat machine. For which neither the Dealer(TVS DHAMIJA, Sahibabad) nor the Twitter helpline and nor the consumer helpline 1800-258-7555 can resolve the issue, they just push again and again to you to visit service center not bothering that a person who have invested 1.04 lacs on purchasing your bike does have to work in order to pay the EMI's.

Worst make and parts like clutch cable get broken often while driving no safety. Front disk brake is noisy and it has increased after service. No spare parts are available in tvs service centre my bike self start switch is not working and the service centre said that the part is not available from company side.They are just ignoring me. Please avoid buying this bike totally disappointing.

bike is another level when it comes to refinement that is a main thing i liked with this bike and then comes the red paint scheme that grabs eyeballs anytime. mileage is debatable i get anywhere between 38-42 in city coz of my aggressive riding. out on highways within 80kmph assure u a mileage of 45+

Bike is quite decent in driving and a 40 kmpl mileage which touches to 45 on highways. For long drives you may need few halts but still a good and enjoying journey you are gonna experience on Apache 160 4V.
