The sound is kind of metal brushing on metal.

Re: TVS Apache RTR 200 4V Ownership Experience

Hey guys, I have a problem. My bike has run 18200kms and there is a sound from the silencer mount on the engine. Could it be the gasket? Or is there any other major problem

Re: TVS Apache RTR 200 4V Ownership Experience

Hello all,

A query regarding the oil be used in RTR200.

I gave my bike for first service and my bill was around ₹500 only.

But, here most people are telling above ₹700.

So I enquired what oil did he use.

Unfortunately it is TRU 4 Semi synthetic one with red color bottle.

Does it affect the bike in any means, since manual says to use only Fully synthetic ?

I have to admit that, my monthly ride will be lesser and I gave my bike for service with just 300 kms on ODO.
(This is due to non availability of proper parking space at my work location. I’m using public transport for 40kms up and down)

When I questioned him, he says if we use synthetic oil, the engine should run some decent number of kms else it will affect the parts and using synthetic is of no use then. So he says to go with semi synthetic one. However I think the grade is same (10W30).

Won’t this cause troubles to the engine ?

But, I can’t see any major change in performance and all.

Also, 2nd and 3rd gear makes some sound (Like Tannnggg) while upshifting but 4th and 5th are crisp and smooth. Is this an issue with the riding habit ? Or due to low rpm gear changes ?

Re: TVS Apache RTR 200 4V Ownership Experience

My engine oil levels are dropping ..when I last changed my oil the mechanic told me that less oil drained and now 1600 kms later 600 ml dropped .The svc guy says it's a block issue and the entire block with packing ,rokers(not sure if I'm spelling it right) and clutch setting and housing will have to be changed with a cost of 15k+ ..The bike is 28 months old running on stock clutch plates and done 61,300 kms till now ..I'm.confused if I need to incur such a high cost or is it just the piston rings worn out? The bike isn't emmiting any black.or white smoke though

Re: TVS Apache RTR 200 4V Ownership Experience

Re: TVS Apache RTR 200 4V Ownership Experience

Bike goes with how many years of warranty?

Re: TVS Apache RTR 200 4V Ownership Experience

[MENTION=101573]Arunachalam[/MENTION] [MENTION=96476]ayrus[/MENTION] ,yup !!

As said earlier I got my bike done servied and all I would say is it's PERFECT !! Not actually exaggerating , they must have got the prompt name too : It's BRILLIANT TVS !

People are responsive and the senior mechanic was pleasing . Definitely I would recommend this ASC for fellow riders who reside nearby Tambaram circle. (CHENNAI).

MY BILLED AMOUNT WAS AROUND 500 ONLY .
INCLUDING NEW AIR FILTER & SPARK PLUG .

Re: TVS Apache RTR 200 4V Ownership Experience

This is just a receipt of sorts. Go to the rto/agent where it was registered. Probably the speed post went back undelivered. Or unless this is how its done in TN. Though I believe all states moved to chip RC a decade ago.

Re: TVS Apache RTR 200 4V Ownership Experience

Okay ,but I have the Office printed certificate (RC) only ! I think there's an option for updating the old RC to smart card.


This is the old RC format and mine as well !

Re: TVS Apache RTR 200 4V Ownership Experience

After registration of the vehicle, rto's usually send it to the registered address via speed post, just like dl's.

Re: TVS Apache RTR 200 4V Ownership Experience

How to get smart card (RC) ? I hadn't get it yet!!

Re: TVS Apache RTR 200 4V Ownership Experience

Yes , My odo is 11902 Kms now and I have given the bike for service at 9 AM today. As per user manual it's advisable to change the AF & spark plug and the service mechanic also said the same.

The service section was good and busy .He spoked to me gently ,asked all the complaints and made sure that the delivery will be in the evening. Let's see...
