Re: TVS Apache RTR 180
No issues with indicator . Only of you install a non stock led headlight. Cops at some places may trouble you. Also if you do any exhaust mods like extra loud ones could land you in trouble.Originally posted by suvoysarkar View PostThen the ktm one's won't be a problem i think!स्वभावो नोपदेशेन शक्यते कर्तुमन्यथा !

Re: TVS Apache RTR 180
No issue... With go for LED indicator,.. But you need to change the Flasher also..Originally posted by suvoysarkar View PostHello guys!
I was planning to install LED indicators on my RTR 180, replacing the stock ones.
I wanted to know if that's legal to do?
Or will i be facing problems with the cops if i do that?
I was planning to go for the KTM ones. Can anyone please shed some light on this

Re: TVS Apache RTR 180
Hey Guys,
I own a Jan 2018 model A180. ODO reads 3500KM. Recently I took her for a long drive and noticed that due to vibration, one of the mirror slips down and constantly annoys. I had to adjust it on high speeds. Any suggestions ?.
I followed the run-in rules and started to rev her only after 2K km. But she vibrates like hell @5K RPM and during the speed 65 to 70kmph. I am using Synthetic TVS oil. Till date done three free services. Also need a suggestion for this issue.

As for the mirror's, pull down the rubber sheath and tighten the 3 screws gently.Motorcycling Experience:

Re: TVS Apache RTR 180
For mirror even ASC fellas will do the adjustment for free of you don't want to experiment on your own. Apache 180 has alot of vibration and in long journeys it is bound to leave your hand numb specially if you do anything close to triple digit speeds or beyond. No matter how much bolt tightening and damping stuff you use. You will never see or feel the issue in routine city traffic as avg speed remains low. But the same is pretty irritating once you are driving on a long open stretch of road. I faced the same and above is my observation.[emoji20]Originally posted by mystic_me View PostHey Guys,

Re: TVS Apache RTR 180
Yes, that is an electronic flasher. Mechanical flashers are load dependent i.e if I swap bulb's for LED's then the relay doesn't flash, the bulb just stays on.Originally posted by Rakesh Frank View PostI don't think soo,.. My bike was 2012 model, i have replaced the Bulb as LED,. It was Flashing very fast,... so i replaced the stock Flasher..Motorcycling Experience:

Re: TVS Apache RTR 180
A bit confused here if i need to change the flasher,Originally posted by ashwinprakas View PostIIRC Doesn't the RTR's already come with an electronic flasher?
as I'm currently waiting for my indicators to arrive.
As mechanics are not quite trustworthy in my area, I wanna be sure what to get done before I approach one for the replacing.
Please help me out with it.
If it needs to be replaced then please suggest which one to go for and the price if possible.

Re: TVS Apache RTR 180
Really want to spend Rs.2k for flashy indicators?Originally posted by rakeshchn View PostI am thinking of replacing stock indicators on RTR 160 4v with KTM Duke's. Please share your experience if you manage to get this done in RTR 180.
Jokes apart it is better to stick with stock, cheap to replace and fix in comparison.
Nothing to worry about mate, once fixed in place turn the indicators on and see if its flashing, if it is then all is well.Originally posted by suvoysarkar View PostA bit confused here if i need to change the flasher,

If it just stays on and doesn't flash then you need to get an electronic flasher which would cost around 120/- and is a direct fit, but chances are you won't need it as the ones that come on TVS motorcycles are electronic by default i.e the flash rate just speeds up with reduced current draw.Motorcycling Experience:

Re: TVS Apache RTR 180
The flasher in our bikes is load dependent, it is not electronic. Electronic flashers have set flashing rate. LED's draw less power, so it'll start flashing fast. To correct this you need the electronic flashers which doesn't depend on load.Originally posted by ashwinprakas View PostReally want to spend Rs.2k for flashy indicators?

Re: TVS Apache RTR 180
Hi all,
I recently bought a used rtr 180 ABS 2012 version, the bike was unused for quite some time. when i took delivery rear brake was very tight, same issue i reported to TVS ASC and they solved the jamming issue. But now there is no stopping bite at the rear, and some time wheel is not rotating properly also. while checking with TVS ASC, they are asking to change the whole brake calliper set , but the parts are not available as of now. my question is whether any body is facing this issue, if so what is the solution?
and while braking, from front some tick sound is coming, is it normal?
thanks
vipin
