New TVS Apache RTR160 Refresh

The Apache RTR 160 has been upgraded with visual changes like the Apache Fi and becomes Apache RTR 160 Refresh. It features a naked chain cover, rear disk brake, tank cowl like in the Bajaj Pulsar 200 and a serrated design stickers (instead of the striped ones found on the RTR 160) which runs across the length of the bike.

It is powered by a 159.7cc engine which develops maximum power of 15.2bhp at 8500 rpm and a peak torque of 13.1Nm at 6000 rpm. The new engine is not just an overbore of the Apache’s 150cc engine. The engine’s stroke was cut down to 52.9 mm and then the bore grew to 62 mm.
