Delhi, July 14 2007: Two-wheeler major TVS Motor Company has unveiled the Apache RTR (Racing Throttle Response) 160 - a premier, high-performance 15.2 BHP street bike that combines TVS racing technology and R&D know-how.
"The priority in every step of the Apache RTR 160's development has been performance. Every system, detail and component has been tuned to maximise performance. If it didn't make the RTR 160 faster or deliver quicker lap times, it wasn't considered," says R. Chandramouli, senior vice president, sales & service, TVS Motor Company.
The Apache RTR's, 160 CC Oversquare engine is programmed to ooze out an astonishing 15.2 British Horse Power (BHP) making it the most powerful bike of its class on Indian roads. The bike has a top speed of 118kph and can reach 60kph in just 4.8 seconds and 100kph in 17.7 seconds, making it the fastest two-wheeler in its class.
