TVS Apache RTR 160 Fi

TVS - Manufacturer of tiny bikes with just 50cc capacities based on Chennai, TamilNadu. The bike had a good name in and around TamilNadu. The Company had a tie-up with Suzuki motors, Japan and then started manufacturing 100cc bike with 2 stroke engine. TVS MaxR100 was the best of its category which rocked all over India competing the RX 100 from Yamaha. When HeroHonda launched its CD100 4stoke category bikes total market changed towards the 4stroke. So market for TVS started drowning.
By that time TVS Victor was introduced in the market which gave a slight boom. TVS introduced Victor 125cc segment in victor which was not as good as Victor 110cc. Then introduced TVS Fiero Excellent bike but not successful.
After a long gap TVS came up with its sports bike in 150 cc segment. A perfect blend of Mileage, efficiency, Speed, Style, etc. It attracted major youth group and came up well. but very soon it was also ruined because of its best competitors Pulsar, CBZ Xtreme and Unicorn.
But innovation gave birth to Apache RTR160, the muscle man with stunning style. Now no bike has stopped it. It became unstoppable hero and won most of the races in sales division.
TVS still not satisfied by its growth and introduced RTR160Fi - Powered more with Fuel injection. So now the Better bike became best.

Still expecting some more innovations from TVS motors and now the new competitors Suzuki GS150R, Yamaha R15, Yamaha FZ will know who the TVS 'xxx' was.
