Pros Cons of Indian Scout Bobber

Pros

  • Guaranteed head turner
  • Good performance
  • Expensive but good proposition

Cons

  • Not very practical
  • Single Seat
  • Limited availability

Verdict

The Indian Scout Bobber is a very, very good-looking motorcycle - period! It's a head turner for sure and has enough performance to make your weekend rides very enjoyable indeed. It's more of an "around town" bike, and perfect for the Sunday morning breakfast ride, or the occasional coffee run to meet up with your biker buddies. You could do the occasional long weekend, but the aggressive riding position and the stiff suspension may tire you out over a full day of riding.

Pros Cons TVS Apache RTR 160

Pros

  • Offers a fun and peppy ride with three riding modes: Rain, Urban, and Sport
  • Lightweight at 138 kg, providing agile handling and easy maneuverability in city traffic
  • Fully digital instrument cluster with SmartXonnect system and Bluetooth connectivity for modern features like navigation

Cons

    • Engine shows its age, with vibrations setting in after 80 kmph
    • Ride quality feels too soft, and the front suspension bottoms out over sharp bumps
    • Ergonomics may feel cramped for taller and heavy-set riders, limiting comfort on longer rides

Verdict

The TVS Apache RTR 160 2V remains a fun and agile motorcycle, especially in urban settings, with a peppy engine and lightweight frame. However, the engine’s age shows with noticeable vibrations at higher speeds, and its softer suspension affects ride quality on rough roads. While it’s still a good option for those looking for a simple, no-nonsense ride, the marginal price difference with the more advanced Apache RTR 160 4V makes the latter a better choice in this segment.
