DTW is nothing but a bunch of outright Cheats!! I had a hopeless experience with them once... went for a kick pawl change and they charged me 10,000 + bucks for that!... that too some 8 yrs back -Bloody hell that part costs only 45 bucks and the same job used to cost less than 2 k including labour (the engine needs to be stripped to get at it - Kb100)
@10k guess this would have even been marginally over the resale value of the bike at the time!
Everyone I know has been shysted one way or the other by them.. I will recommend stay faaaar away!!

hey BIDW, as far as accessories for apache is concerned like the body cover and stuff the idea is in the wing. no idea about the dates. wil let u know if i come to know of them see ya guys

Yes agree with Yesha about the TV ad. the product video is way better than the TV ad, I believe that they should have aired the product video instead of the TV ad. Wats ur views on that Yesha?
apache is a definite no no for tall guys...... just not enough room and at slightly high speeds... u feel queasy.......
have a pulsar 180 all black and my roomie has an apache. cant help but compare the two........ the 180 just overwhelms the apache...
the apache has a starting problem and the engine takes a long time to reach a comforable idling speed.... also the finish leaves a lot to be desired compared to the black beast.
so apache...........naaaaaaaaaaaaaaah
hey shadow i think you are comparing a 150cc bike with 150cc one. why dont u compare it with p150 and then we can say if its good or not . and abt the tall ppl prob i agree with you a guy with more than 6ft height cannot ride this bike

yeah its smaller than pulsar in length
My cousin bought one. He says he was warned not to ride it above 50kmph till 500km. And when he tried to do 50+ teh engine was kindof restricting teh bike. Is teh bike locked mechanically or electronically?
no it is not locked or something like that . i rode it 60 kmph no such feeling
Ok so I rode one today. HAndling is superb. Wheelies is easy! Nice brakes too. Coz it was a new bike, I didnt go beyond 70kmph. Some pix
yeah dude the wheelies are easy just get it to 5000rpm and bang you are in the air . stoppies are easier have you tried them ??? .
hi iam pravi. i think tvs is good for onely one year.and the engin is rude after ony it will not perform well i think so. any one want to talk about it can start a thread
