  • @Renny: RTR Fi has done 9K kms till date. Yes, I will keep my fingers crossed.
    @Julian: Yeah, I always stick to that attitude especially on our Indian bikes. As long as its running fine, dont finger it!

      Me too have the same idea but am a bit hessitant looking at the cost....i have to get a con rod, crank and bore kit......so wonder if its worth doing it or exchange it for a RTR 180



      is it possible in the 1st place? Even if it is why would you want to do it?
      I have given my bike for 180 conversion. By Friday I will get my beast. I don't want to loose her thats why not exchanging it for RTR 180.

      I think u need to change only crank and cone rod. That will increase ur cc to 174.4 cc instead of RTR 180's 177.23cc. Bore is 62.5 mm in RTR 180 instead of 62 mm in RTR 160. Earlier I have planned to buy RTR 160 bore kit to make it 174cc. But now RTR 180 kit is avilable. So going for it.

      Bore and stroke ratio
      Apache 150 : 0.98615916955017301038062283737024 (57 mm x 57.8 mm)

      Apache RTR 160 : 1.1720226843100189035916824196597 (62x 52.9mm)

      Apache RTR 180 : 1.0813148788927335640138408304498 (62.5.0x57.8mm)

        so you mean to say if we [A160] change our bikes crank and cone rod then it will become a A180 ?
        i mean thats it ???
        tvs did that much and presented a bike to us ?

                  Is'nt the 160 bore a bit short? I guess the piston might hit the cylinder head. Was thinking to add 1 or 2 more gaskit/seal to make it a bit taller (ya stupid idea:d)


                  @jam

                  Not sure abt the price but i think it should cost under 5k rs. have spoke to arun abt this already. will speak to suriender when i meet him next time. I saw him today but could'nt speak to him abt this!

                        In this case, u are drifting from bike's specs in insurance policy and RC. if caught, u will be in trouble. just shave the head and increase comp ratio to 10.8 to 11 or so. thats way better.

                        and it will cost upto 1-1.5k max.

                                A good long ride can clear your mind, restore your faith, and use up a lot of fuel.

                                Always be ready (get geared) to fall and then think of sitting on the motorcycle.
