  • Re: TVS Apache RTR 200 4V

    Guys. Quick survey on what is the range you're getting on your RTR200 with a full tank (under various conditions).

    -Normally under 100% city riding, I get around 330-350kms

    -after my last full tank, I managed to get 400kms (of which 260 were on a highway). I find this to be super as I never ever managed more that 360kms on my old FZ.

    It seems that on a tour (100% highway) the RTR would manage around 420kms on a full tank, which seems great.

            Guys, am little confused between using normal petrol or premium petrol for my apache rtr 200, anyone used premium petrol for your bike and noticed the difference in mileage, pickup and smoothness of the bike?I used premium petrol while going for a long ride on my bike and noticed a considerable difference in smoothness of the engine, but some people advice against using premium petrol for the bike saying it can damage the engine. Is it true?? please share your experience guys thank you in advance

              Its not like it damages ur bike engine. Truth is if u dont use it regularly it can effect the engine. Its like , if u drink tap water regularly , therefore drinking packed mineral water will cause you to fall sick .

                    Does anybody own a yellow RTR 200 here? I have been to multiple dealerships in Bangalore and most of them don't know a yellow exists! One of them said they can get it from Hosur but they will need 50% advance. I haven't seen the colour IRL so I am hesitant to do that.

                      Yellow variant has not been launched commercially as per my knowledge. It's only been seen on the race track at the TVS One make championship, and for media testing during original launch (it was the FI model if I remember correctly). I am unsure how that dealer is claiming to bring one. Be a bit careful here.

                      It's a fantastic colour though. Bit of a golden yellow.

                        I see, thanks. Yes, this yellow looks great, esp in matte. I like the red and grey mattes also so I have enough choice without having to risk ₹₹₹ for the yellow.

                        The dealer also mentioned that all his 200s were FI and they don't sell carbureted RTR 200 anymore. Is this true? Seems... suspicious.

                        EDIT: Actually forgot to mention, the website, yellow is shown as an offered colour: https://www.tvsapache.com/rtr-200

                          The matt looks great in white and red. I've got the red one and it's a head turner for sure.

                          This dealer really seems fishy. FI variant hasn't been offered for sale locally yet. I wonder how he is selling 'only' the FI variants. The rumours have been never ending and according to the latest ones, FI+ABS are to be launched on September.

                            I was wondering whether we could have a WhatsApp kinda group for RTR200 owners. Might be of help.

                            What do you guys think?

                                Oh wow lol, this dealer is super clueless then. He kept saying "sir just see the internet reviews are awesome" 😂 but I assumed he would at least know what he was selling.

                                Cool, thanks man.
