Well looks wise, yes it's refreshing to look at, I think that the Clutch and the Gear Shift is much smoother now compared to the older 160 (I rode a friends to test ride it).<BR/><BR/>All-in-all the bike is still a show stealer with an amazing engine sound and that sporty feel with the maneuverability of a cheetah!!<BR/><BR/>Thanks for all ur blogs, posts, it really helped me.<BR/><BR/>And yes this one comes for 65,900 on road in Bangalore. I got mine from Tristar Motors, Indiranagar.<BR/><BR/>Cheers Bikers!<BR/><BR/><I> I might add more in here as I get to know this bike better...</I> :-)Abhimanyu Krishnahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08128852275787800438noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-167798941970247934.post-22275250992763296422008-03-29T16:42:00.002+05:302008-03-29T16:42:00.002+05:30thanx payeng, i'll wait for it tilll you test the new variant and post a rocking replyPrashanthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12010913780474549553noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-167798941970247934.post-80727711136074673182008-03-29T15:38:00.000+05:302008-03-29T15:38:00.000+05:30@ Prashant,<BR/><BR/>No Idea bro.. have to check it out when it arrives here..

I am a avid reader of your blog and truly all your articles rock. I read the article Vega has mentioned in his comments, it turned out to be just another review of TVS APACHE RTR EFI, there was no mention of the release of this bike.<BR/><BR/>I had been waiting for this bike since the AUTO EXPO 2008, i check TBCI everyday for info on it.<BR/><BR/>However there is one observation i have made out of test riding RTR, i had so far ridden a couple of RTR's and an old Apache sibling, these bikes show a huge inconsistency when it comes engine refinement, baring the fact that all these were brand new bikes, while one (RTR that is) felt moderately refined the other was nothing less that a huge vibrator. May be it is the way its maintained. But i really wanna know about the vibes and the engine refinement.<BR/><BR/>MuzaffarAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-167798941970247934.post-74979815445491316442008-03-26T07:22:00.000+05:302008-03-26T07:22:00.000+05:30RTR-FI Released on March 26th 2008..<BR/>Read in Hindu Metro Plus (WHEELS) section..Veganoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-167798941970247934.post-59900880419450857382008-03-26T01:06:00.000+05:302008-03-26T01:06:00.000+05:30does any one have any idea as to when its coming to bangalore and what the price difference between this and the avaialable model is? The last when i checked in Tristar motors in Domlur next to the indiranagar flyover, they gave me a price of 67000 for the yellow... do u know any other better shop where they will probably give me a discount. Which is the best TVS showroom in bangalore.. its the first time im to buy a bike and am a little bit apprehensive. Im planning to buy it by April 2nd week during the Ugadhi festival season... I dont think i can wait any longer for the FI model, as now it has become necessity...Vijeshchttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06349532970674280192noreply@blogger.com
