The Apache RTR 160 2V also comes equipped with Glide Through Technology (GTT) and a fuel-injected engine. GTT is essentially a torque assist system, which automatically increases engine torque when you want to ride the bike at low speeds in city traffic.

Engine specs feature a 159.7 cc, single-cylinder, 4-stroke, air-cooled, 2-valve engine that delivers 14.14 PS of maximum power at 8,000 rpm and 13.03 Nm of peak torque at 6,750 rpm. The motor is paired with a five-speed gearbox. Apart from the addition of ABS, braking hardware remains unchanged. A 270 mm petal disc brake at the front and a 130 mm drum unit at the rear perform anchoring tasks.

With synchro stiff chassis, the racing machine provides stiffness for straight-line performance and flex for aggressive cornering. The set up provides the customers absolute confidence to ride on the very edge.
