Pros Cons of 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.

Pros Cons Aprilia SR 150

Pros

  • The tubeless tyres offer good grip.
  • Superior braking system.
  • Under-seat charging setup.
  • Good ground clearance.

Cons

  • Riding quality on the stiffer side.
  • Costlier maintenance.
  • Small floorboard.
  • Smaller under-seat storage.

Verdict

The Aprilia SR 150 is the slightly smaller sibling to the SR 160 and offers a similar sporty, exciting package in the scooter segment. It gets entertaining performance and good dynamics, but the lack of practicality, storage space and low fuel efficiency will not make it appeal to a lot of cost-conscious scooter buyers in India.
