          • Cons

          • TVS Apache RTR 200 4V

            • The adjustable front suspension works really well, and makes it versatile enough for riders of different weights to ride on different road conditions
            • The disc brakes at the front and rear provide good stopping power
            • The power output is spread out throughout the rev range, making the engine quite usable

            • Handles well and changes direction quickly
            • Now comes with smartphone connectivity and turn-by-turn navigation
            • Styling is similar to its bigger sibling, the NS200

          • TVS Apache RTR 200 4V

            • Due to the high-set sporty footpegs, larger (tall or hefty) riders may feel uncomfortable over long rides
            • The lack of a sixth gear means you cannot comfortably cruise on the highway at high speeds

            Bajaj Pulsar NS160

            • One of the heaviest bikes in its class
            • Engine isn’t refined at higher revs

            BEST RACING BIKE
            Bike look and power is incredible where as it has major problem is chain even you change change sprocket the annoying sound will come even after 500kms to 1000kms, Service was Good in some locations, The bike gives almost 40km as milege its okay for 200cc bike but there is no compromise in power and pulling power

            Apache rtr 200 4v -based on own perspective
            While buying I had huge expectations on milage but totally it's failed But on performance I was impressed it's very good on breaking On chains sprocket it's a failed model Style it's very good and mate blue colour is impressive,but part for the bike is difficult. I expect to made it with steel to avoid damage of plastic easy brokeable

            Overall good performer in 200cc
            It's the 200 twin of the 160 4v. But, It has tried to vary itself from it. First things are performance and handling. The bike has good initial power and doesn't lag in mid range. The top range is not very competitive to other 200 cc bikes but does the job. Refined engine and suspension is commendable. Mileage is less than 40 and you might get 40+ if vehicle is maintained well and with good riding style. Lastly TVS service is not very good everywhere but if you are in metro city you can plenty of dealers because of the wide network

            A Budget Superbike
            This is the first bike I bought ...but after that I realised why I bought it..very very worst customer care support and service centre are worst in my area.Apart from that Smooth experience with bike and it is more comfortable only one thing service costs are too high.if you maintain it good then it will best for the money.But it's a good superbike category falls under budget.

Top speed it will go till 130 and there is no wobbling when we are going in 100+ Thank you..
