2023 TVS Apache RTR 160 spotted for the first time

TVS is said to have redesigned the intake, which should affect performance.

A TVS Apache RTR 160 test mule, believed to be the 2023 model has been spotted for the first time.

The test bike looks identical to the current Apache RTR 160 on sale. It has the same body panels as the current bike, including the tank extensions and chin fairing.

Reports suggest that while the bike is powered by a 159cc, single-cylinder engine, TVS is said to have redesigned the intake, which should affect performance. The engine, in its current configuration, develops 17.3 BHP and 14.73 Nm and is paired with a 5-speed gearbox.

The test bike is equipped with a telescopic fork suspension at the front and has a mono-shock at the rear, which is quite standard. However, the bike appears to have a prototype exhaust.
