Senior - BHPian | ![]() Apache has been released in chennai, bangalore etc. I tested it and its great. Hope TVS doesnt goof up the delivery and customer service. We see a potential dethroner of the pulsar150. PULSAR - RIP |

Senior - BHPian | ![]() Me too.... Lets hope TVS delivers the Apache properly accross the country. Service and spares are a major problem especially in the north. They could have done with a little graphics. Looks too plain. |

| ![]() though apache tho dosent look like the original apache, comes very close to it,it has little bits from all the 150cc bikes in the market today.according to me it looks better than the pulsar, but can v count on tvs engines is the big question. the bike will look even better wit unicorns swing arm and suespension. |

Senior - BHPian | ![]() Its gonna take some time to reach the market. TVS have always been slow to market their products. Very traditional, you now. Slow and steady. If you have determined to go for Apache, why do you wait for a while. Try writing to the company. Try to get a letter signed by your friends and send it the co. visit them at tvsmotor.co.in |

| ![]() Just had a hand on my friends Apache (Chennai - Mahabalipuram and back). Drove towards Mahab's and was a pinion when returned. Could not rev the engine more than 55 kmph as it was "set in" period. Bike had only done 130 kms when i started driving. Personal feelings are 1) Build quality is better than pulsar and on par with Unicorn. 2) Driver seating positioin is better than Pulsar and Unicorn (I am 5.11, so may be different for others). 3) Rear seat travel feels a lot better than Pulsar or Unicorn. 4) Engine is not as refined as Unicorn. Cannot compare Pulsar as it is like Tata's Diesel (silent for a few K's and then starts making music). 5) Low end torque is too good. (I wonder how TVS manages to get this in all their models) Overall it is worth a wait. |

BHPian | ![]() TVS Guys have always been rude...I had to go through the same when I bought my Fiero F2... Sethu, what I actually wanna know is that is the rear susoension still as soft as it was on the Fiero, or have they sorted it out? I am finding it hard to lay my hands on one here in Thane... |
