Pictures of TVS apache RTR 180
Within a fortnight from now, TVS will launch the much expected apache RTR 180 (known as RTR menace). The new apache RTR 180 is powered by a 177.3cc engine. It is not fuel injected but a bored and stroked avatar of popular 160cc mill. TVS engineers have given a lighter crank, lighter magneto and a bigger carburettor for quicker engine response. We expect the 180cc motor to offer better low- and mid-range torque. TVS claims the new apache RTR 180 to reach 60kmph from standstill in 4.15 seconds and top speed as 125kph. TVS apache RTR 180 produces 17.3PS which is slightly higher than the new upgraded Bajaj pulsar 180. TVS has also worked on mechanicals to improve the dynamics of the race-bred RTR. The wheelbase is increased by 30mm for the improved stability. The brakes are carried forward from apache RTR FI – 270mm petal disc at the front and 200mm disc at the rear. Apart from the change the heart and mechanical changes, there is very little to distinguish between the RTR 160 and RTR 180. The new apache RTR 180 gets larger sized RTR decals on tank scoops and removable rear mudguard. It also gets a new white back tachometer. TVS new apache RTR 180 would hit the road in next 15 days we expect the new apache rtr 180 to be priced around Rs70,000
