  • Apache RTR 180

    Colour: White
    Till Date Driven : 640 Kms (Will be updating once in a week)
    Top Speed Reached: 79 (will be updating once in a week, if any improvement :P )

    When i first took the bike i was just gazing at it, it was looking so hot. Till now i have once reached 79 Km/h Speed as we say vary speed for better matting for parts lol :P
    At the first gears were little stucky but by the time passed it became normal i was so worried.
    Every sunday i complete 70-100 Kms approx, as i don't get time to get on the bike on work days

    Will keep you guys update

                  Hey welcome to the tribe

                  I'm facing the usual problems associated with the bike. The vibes are close to intolerable around 4.5k-6k mark and you either want to slow down or accelerate further. Guess I'll learn to live with it

                  And another more serious problem is the bike's instability at speeds of 80+. It simply refuses to stay in a straight line (suspect a wheel alignment problem) and I cannot cruise at those speeds.

                    dude, get ur bike checked by the SVC guys or any other good mechanic (just get CHECKED in case of other mechanic n then take it to SVC). i think ur bike needs to get all the bolts tightened and the same goes for the axle too. also check the alignment.

                    hope u'll get it rectified soon.

                    • Later on Saturday,I've complained about Aditi TVS,Noida...Mail was sent directly to A.Ilango..I guess he's the GM..

                      I've complained so badly that I believe Aditi TVS has been given a proper scolding by TVS bosses..

                      Here's the reply which I got from Aditi TVS..:

                      Dear shivank,

                      Thanks for your feedback, I am owner of ADITI TVS and i am sorry for inconvience caused. I am here at dealership and my personal no is 9810035896 pls visit us i will take care of your issues personally.

                      ADITI TVS
                      NOIDA


                      I am sure going to take my issues to him..I'd like if anyone could confirm whether disc plates come under warranty or not?..
                      If you ride like there's no tomorrow...worry not there won't be!

                        Bike's not being stable at 80 is first i heard, it's surely the wheel alignment.
                        Get it checked ASAP.
                        It's dangerous.

                          I'll visit a local mechanic or the SC during the weekend. Was just checking the rear wheel seems like the left portion is wearing out more than the right side. There's chalk mark on both sides and the left ones have vanished more or less (the right ones are fully intact)
