  • May be the manufacturers gain the insider-information much earlier and so is the delay.But if this thing goes on then it will take an eternity till a 'proper' bike gets launched!!

            • Scooty streak's new anti skid(tubeless) tyres is doing wonders on it.. I own one.. It doesn't skid in wet at any condition.. Done 750 Kms in rainy situation so far.. I hope the new RTR 180 tubeless tyres will be like that..

                looks like tvs wants the RTR owners to fall and break bones and the girls to remain safe .. unacceptable !!

                  • TVS Apache 180 - Big Brother











                    here are the pics












                    The TVS Apache 180 adorns a new graphic scheme to distinguish itself from its smaller siblings, with RTR emblazoned boldly on the tank scoops.
                    The front forks and the gas reservoirs for the rear shocks are now painted in a new golden shade and the clip-ons have a new RTR 180 emblem at the centre.

                      Scooty streaks tyres are way better than apache.. I own an apache and scooty..

                      The new RTR 180's wheelbase is 1326mm..(Source:Overdrive). They have experimented with wheelbase from 1280mm to 1350mm with 10mm increase and find 1326mm is optimal wheelbase for both straight line stability and flickability.. The RTR180 is still as flickable as 160 with 26mm increase in wheelbase.. The bike's length in now 2085mm.. For RTR it is 2020mm..

                        What is this anti-skid tyre? What are they made of? Never heard about them! If they really exist, then ABS will get obsolete!

                          Me: Released? Do you have prices and specs?
                          Lady1: Wait a min .. redirected to a gentleman
                          Gentleman: Yes sir?
                          Me: I just came to know that RTR 180 has been released, so do you have some specification sheet or price for that?
                          Gentleman: gave phone to a lady
                          Lady2: Yes sir, it is released and it came to showroom(at this point I was really excited) but went back. And we are getting it soon.
                          Me: Good. What's the price? Do you have any specs sheet?
                          Lady2: No sir, soon it will come back to show room for showcasing and test rides.
                          Me: Any idea of price? And when did it come to the show room?
                          Lady2: Price: no idea, guess: at least 70k. Day before yesterday.

                          Then she took my number for future contacts and told me that she would call me as soon as they get one in their showroom.
                          Better if its true cuz my friend is gonna buy one Apache soon!

                            • The earlier scootys also had the antiskid and puncture resistant tyres.As the Streak's tyres are lil bit wider, it provides better stability!!

                              Here is one more first-ride video of the RTR 180!!
