    Ok, Coming to reality. What can we expect or do expect in this?

    Starting with me:

    1. Liquid Cooled Engine
    2. 22-25 Bhp atleast on the Tap
    3. Alothough RTR's had good handling capabilities, expecting good Solid Frame this time
    4. FI
    5. Better Rubbers &
    6. Overall a better build quality
    Whenever there is a Rainbow in the sky, I know it's u mastering the art of Cornering. U will always be remembered brother, R.I.P Arun.

      I want only one thing from TVS.

      Less Vibration.

      Other things like Acceleration and handling etcc are just Awesome..!
      Here there are peoples who not taken RTR just cause of this vibration..

      Hope TVS will clear this.

        Don't you think the Vibes is what brings the RTR's character into life? Massage Machine on highways at the flip of ur throttle??

              Those looks like Halo rings on top of LED Pilot's doesn't it? The headlights should be down somewhere...

              • The official page says same "blood line"
                After reading that I don't want to speculate for a higher cc version. Its just time waste. But at the same time I feel the vibes will go down a lot. Hines are lser in new hyper edge bikes...

                  You're probably right...

                  My first impression was that they managed to fit Audi-esque headlights
                  I like 'em Naked

                  Blah Blah Blah!

                  • And one more thing- as the pilot lamps are White,so we can expect a Projecter(P220 type) as well....

                    • According to AutocarIndia its a visually modified RTR 180. SCOOP! TVS to launch revised Apache RTR - News - Autocar India

                      And those are definitely not headlamps. More like Pulsar UG III-IV style pilot lamps with optical guides / halo rings at the top.

                      • if it'll be that same RTR with new looks then it'll be a disappointment for many from TVS..

                        • It seems this is just the old engine with a new headlight assembly. Including daytime pilot lamps... The sad part is ifs gonna cost about 5k more than the existing bikes... sounds sick to me.
                          Heard this on FB.
