I have all the tools except the feeler gauge. -
Dunno about it as the guys at Century TVS & other TVS sales offices said that Red/Yellow has been removed & only black or grey are available as per my knowledge for Previous-gen Apache 160 Hyperedge which also has new gearbox,switch gear, wider rear tires though i just rode the new one only, so dunno about the new models of previous-gen's performance. BTW alot of people say Rear Disc is not essential on 160, what is anyone's views on it as i think Disc brakes are slightly better than drum brakes or are they not worth it in 160Originally posted by Fear_The_White_Menace View PostA Bike is as good as it's Rider & Vice-verse.

No problem. Post it when you get it.Originally posted by adityajohanan View PostI don't have any pics with me right now.
My grandad lives in Mangalore and I live in Hyderabad. I will take pics and post soon. In summer maybe.
Don't bother with the adjustment until you get feeler gauge.Originally posted by adityajohanan View Post
Get the rear disc without a second thought. It helps when ripping. For 2k odd more, it's a killer deal. I own a drum 160 and I regret my choice of drum over disc.Originally posted by aditya_iyer View PostLast edited by pcgamer; 03-06-2013, 08:57 AM.Comment

Today it rained after a good 4 months in Bangalore (at least in and around my surroundings :P). I was on my way from college to home. The road was just a little damp thats it. On my usual route there is a flyover where we usually ride around 40 - 50KPH for around 5KM. After that part we enter the normal slow moving traffic part. The road was quite greasy here. As soon as I entered that road the rear end lost traction completely :O I was doing just 25 - 30 KPH and my bike is fishtailing OMG. At first I thought it was a puncture, but No. It's our TVS tyres. I had my nuts, heart and everything in my mouth at that moment lol. I don't know if its my riding style or not but just could not ride the bike at all. I was losing traction even under acceleration. My tyres are just 11K KM old. What do you guys say? Should I buy new tyres or should I tweak my riding style?Last edited by Prithvi R; 03-06-2013, 09:16 PM.Comment

I've had this exact same feeling at around same speeds and my a$$ was kissing the road even before I knew it.Originally posted by Prithvi R View Post
I said then and I'll say it again: I would never trust TVS tires on a wet road. Glad for you that you are alright.

I have the same problem, I'm crazy I know but sometimes enjoy loosing traction on acceleration and doing minor power slides

But I'm not able to understand the fishtailing phase. I was not cornering, I was not braking or anything. I was in a straight line in 3rd gear with very mild throttle. Weird. :/Comment

One time, it was a dry road, I cornered really sharp and slept the bike, my front tyre skid. I didn't apply breaks or anything. I shat bricks, luckily for some reason, the bike just got up just before I planted my face in the road, I was around 25 kmph. TVS tyres suck.Comment
