  • Cold start issue

    I have recently bought the new apache 160 4v. The bike otherwise is very good but after I keep the bike stationary for more than 6-7 hours the bike doesn't start in one click of the starter takes at least 2-3 times. Is it something I have to be worried?

      Not exactly, if your bike starts in 2-3 attempts max. If it's more than that, please check the battery and its voltage with help of a multi meter. Refer to your service manual to check for the ideal volt rating of your battery.

      However, there shouldn't be any problem as such; keeping in mind that your motorcycle is brand new.


      ATGATT !!!
