Pros Cons of TVS Apache RTR 165 RP

Pros

  • High-Performance Engine
  • Top-spec components
  • Sharp handling

Cons

  • Limited Availability
  • Racy body graphics not suitable for everyday use
  • More expensive than stock Apache RTR 160 4V

Verdict

The TVS Apache RTR 165 RP is a special edition model which is already sold out. With better performance, improved braking hardware, brass coated chain and sprocket, the Apache RTR 165 RP certainly offers an attractive proposition, but comes at a price. Despite the engine with more performance, low-end grunt is lacking in the Apache RTR 165 RP and the price tag makes it feel expensive.

Pros Cons TVS Apache RTR 160 4V

Pros

  • Refined BS6-compliant engine with improved fuel injection technology
  • Sharp handling with commendable grip from TVS Remora radial tires
  • Enhanced design with a new LED headlamp and race-inspired graphics

Cons

  • Slight reduction in power output compared to the previous model
  • Lacks the SmartXonnect Bluetooth system, which is available on other models
  • 5-speed gearbox could have been slicker for better shifting experience

Verdict

The TVS Apache RTR 160 4V BS6 model continues to be one of the best options in the 160cc segment, offering a refined engine and sporty handling. The updates in design and the new headlamp add to its appeal, though the slight drop in power and the absence of advanced features like SmartXonnect might leave some wanting more. Overall, it remains a solid and stylish performer in its class, offering good value for its price.
