Design and Style
It is almost a carbon copy of its younger sibling, Apache RTR 160. It takes time to notice the little changes made to this bike. TVS has added new elements of style to this bike which includes revamped headlight and front cowl. The pilot lamps of the bike are now combined with day time running LEDs which turns on with ignition. Its clear lens indicators and black colored rear view mirrors are the same. Its front fender features racing graphics on it which looks sporty with racing strips on its black colored alloy wheels. To make it look aggressive and aerodynamic, TVS has added bigger tank shrouds on this bike. TVS has printed RTR in bold letters on its fuel tank which also features cool graphics. Front forks and rear shockers of this bike are given gold finish which complements the styling of this bike. The engine cowl is the sportiest thing that you can notice in this bike. Its black colored muffler is partly covered by a chrome shield. The racing style continues at the back also as you will notice sporty decals on its rear cowl. Its split grab rail, short rear fender and dual colored tail light adds macho character to this bike.
