    Might not be the best out there, but TVS TruSpray serves the purpose well. You'll get it from TVS SVC's and would cost around 300-350 INR.
    The Apache is ever willing to red line each cog, but the Rider ain't. Enjoy RTR, Safely. Period.

      The best one is the combo of Motul Chain Cleaner+Lube. If I'm not wrong it costs near 950Rs.
      As @Rtrlover said, the TVS Tru spray is VFM. You just need to clean the chain well before applying, else there won't much use.
      It's not about the RIDE. It's about HOW YOU ride :]

        If you spend more in maintaining chain/sprockets than it actually costs think again mate.

            Yes it is bit high. Thats why TVS Tru spray is VFM. Even I use it.
            But then for those want the best, Motul is there. I have heard that it's absolute top class. Since we know that around half of bike vibes come from the chain+sprocket, it would do good to take care of them well, just like the engine
            Edit: The Motul combo lasts well for over an year. It does work out to be great for those who want the best.

                          I'm really curious to know, why so many RTRs on roads run on an FFE..& have faced many questions about stock & FFE..Setting on a quest of knowledge..
                          Anyone running the RTR180 on a Free Flow Exhaust here..?I wanted to know what are the positive & negative changes in the bikes performance..After shifting to FFE can you tour on the bike or is it just for track days..??Does the mod go hand-in-hand with any other mods..??Performance figures..??Please answer the questions which I have not asked as well..

                            Its either they are interested in making an entry where ever they roll or like some of us here , they want increase in performance(you can expect 1 or 2 bhp increase)

                            Stock exhaust will ideally have a catcon(to control emission) and a muffler(to reduce noise), the gas which comes out will have to go through these and it will create a back pressure. In a free flow exhaust back pressure will be decreased by widening the pipe this will give better acceleration. Importantly, keep in mind that huge amounts of research go into making a good exhaust system, its not just as simple as putting larger pipes and taking off the catcon (this is a jugaad that many do). Sometimes it can have a negative effect on the performance as well.

                              Hi All,
                              I have recently purchased new apache rtr 160 which has done 500kms and its due for 1st service.
                              Can i use the same oil TVS Tru4 premium (SS) for my rtr, or should i look in for some other SS oil.

                                Congrats for your bike,

                                And don't change Engine Oil brand, let TVS Tru4 to be in engine...And When going for Servicing make sure to ask them to Tightened all the bolts specially Silencer one, else they will only be doing Engine Oil change ....If possible take a day off & be there at SVC all day to get your work done..
