Could you please explain, were there any sudden juds or pots holes the forks were subject too or dusty conditions? It's disheartening to see the Kayaba setup leaking so soon. Do keep us posted on the price of the oil seal, if any. Even though it's under warranty, some pictures of the seal and price and packing would come in handy.

Cheers!

Nothing much
Actually the roads were smooth.
I.e Vadodara to anand to nadiad and back
But i did go to surat from Vadodara and back few days back when on the return few bad patches due to new bridge construction were there but nothing big.
The bridge in talk is the new bridge about to be opened by p m modi today near bharuch.
No dusty condition
Though will try to share oil seal pics when i deliver the bike for service i.e at 5500km .

Thanks

Hi Nitish, don't worry bro, I too used to face the same issue but now the vibration is reduced and the bike feel much more smooth and the ride quality is plush. Currently my RTR 200 completed 5700 Kms. Need to complete 3rd service in the next few days. So, give some time for the bike to settle. It should become smoother with time.

Hope I don't regret my decision 😨

None of the issues with this bike is serious I believe. I myself is very very happy with this bike. I too faced minor issues but instead of taking it to the mechanic, I try to fix them myself. One of issue what everyone is facing is chain noise and I have resolved for my bike by a very simple trick (clean and lube the chain each 300-400 Km). Every time I ride the bike, I want to ride more and more. I am going for 200-300 km all day ride regularly and believe me dude, the ride quality is so damn good. The power, the smoothness of engine above 6000 RPM, the instant throttle response and acceleration will just make you fall in love with this amazing machine each and every day. So I believe you won't regret the decision ob booking this bike. Do share the pictures once you receive the beast.

Re: TVS Apache RTR 200 4V

Hello!
One of my friends is willing to buy my Pulsar 200 NS.
2015 mfd, 9200 kms run, (almost like new) for 70k.
So, will the Apache 200 4V be a good bike to switch if i sell NS?
I am in a plan to buy the Carburetor version Apache 200 with Pirelli tyres.
I am not willing for a higher displacement (more than 200cc) bike as my budget is limited.
Any comments on the Apache 200 4V? Can i go for it? Any owners of Apache 200 4V here?
If yes, please share it's performance, seating comfort, mileage, features, your ownership experience!
Thanks in advance.

There are many reviews out there. If you want an unbiased review you shouldn't be asking here, because it's Apache's thread and all members here are Apache's fan.
Surly Apache is best. It had better low end power. It give racing response as the name says RTR. Looks are subjective. You can go with this deal.👍

Why would you do that!! If you would have taken the ABS version, That would have been welcomed. But performance wise, you will never feel any difference between the two. My advice- wait for the ABS version, then buy it.

I mostly ride less that too in a small city, few times i ride on highways at limited speeds below 90.
I am ok with Non-ABS variant too.
I will be thankful if anyone tells me about it's build quality & comfort on highways. To be more frank, yesterday when i visited the Tvs showroom, what i observed is that the seats are so comfortable. I am also interested to know it's mileage in city and i heard from few people that this bike has beautiful exhaust note & last about it's spares. l hope the availability of spares of Rtr 200 4v will be easy.

Go for it. There is a reason it was awarded Bike of the Year in 2016. Best in class IMHO. Zero vibrations, great performance, best ride quality thanks to the super KYB suspension. Really tall 5th gear helps on the highways too. Ticks all the boxes you set out!

**rakowli** · 03-10-2017, 10:35 PM

Re: TVS Apache RTR 200 4V

Yes if you ride it decently you will get some very surprising mileage figures.. I was also getting close to 45+ mileage but I thought I was wrong...

Re: TVS Apache RTR 200 4V

Is the exhaust that the rtr's used in one make race available anywhere for purchase?
