The TVS Apache RTR 160 2V is a testament to the enduring appeal of a well-designed and regularly updated motorcycle.

However, the bikes build quality, while improved, still feels a bit subpar in some areas, such as the plastics and overall refinement. The riding experience is exhilarating, especially in Sport mode, but the handling and gearbox could be sharper. Overall, its a great value buy for those looking for a fun, efficient, and affordable motorcycle, though the Apache RTR 160 4V might offer more for a slightly higher price.

Apache is my beloved bike. Specially model of 2016, Just one word, Happy and acceptable bike. And my personal opinion is for those who love Apache RTR, than you should guys try to encourage this company because there are competitor in market, but Apache RTR is the best engineering of TVS company.

Best Features: Instrument cluster, aerodynamic scopes, ABS, roto petal disc, Superb synchronized racing Chassé for better control in 140 kmph speed. Good for money value.

Pros: First thing is it's aggressive look, and Superb performance in its segment, amazing and stylish aggressive look, mostly in this matte blue edition I believe this is best rear happy bike in india.

Cons: Nothing to compromise in 2016 year model
