TVS will launch the highly awaited Apache RTR 180 (previously known as the Menace, and now a menace for Bajaj Auto) within the next 15 days at around Rs. 72,000/- The Apache RTR 180 is powered by a 177.3cc engine which produces 17.3PS of power, slightly more than the new upgraded Bajaj Pulsar 180. There is no fuel injection in the RTR 180. The 180cc mill of the new RTR is bored and stroked of the RTR 160. TVS engineers have given a lighter crank, lighter magneto and a bigger carburetor for quicker engine response. The 180cc motor is expected to offer better low and mid-range torque.
TVS claim the Apache RTR 180 will reach 60kmph in 4.15 seconds and have a top speed of 125kph. TVS has also worked on mechanicals to improve the dynamics of the race-bred RTR. The wheelbase is increased by 30mm for improved stability. The brakes are carried forward from the Apache RTR FI, that is 270mm petal disc at the front and 200mm disc at the rear. Apart from the change of heart and the mechanicals, there is very little to distinguish between the RTR 160 and RTR 180. The Apache RTR 180 gets larger sized RTR decals on tank scoops and removable rear mudguard. It also gets a new white tachometer.

hey fellas….
i just brought a rtr 180 4 months back ……
i just wanna say one things…..
i u r planing to spend 70K odd rs on a vehicle i’l just say go for rtr 180 ……
u guys wont believe wat me and my frnds did with the rtr180… in very first week we ran it on 107 km/h…..
with the fuel efficiency of 45km/l…
we do burn outs… drags on the very first month, i knw i shouldn’t have done but after all these the bike still say ” this all u got, come show me some more”
and few days back i ran it on 115km/h under the distance of hardly a km… acceration is beating almost every bike in this segment… it curves like a mean machine.. roars like a beast… its feels power wen u ride on it……
and the name is true it is the ” MENACE”.

guys Im a big Speed freak and recently my cousin bro got his RTR 180 ABS. I was left dumbstruck with the sensible braking ability of this awesome road cutter. I knew previously that RTRwas a performer bike which will vibrate till u drop ur balls!! But guess i was wrong and i feel happy about it… In my view Apache RTR 180ABS is the safest bike on indian road… not only that …. I have riden many bikes like FZ-s, Pulsar 180,220,220f, Zmr,Hunk, and cbz-xtreme….but none of them could cut through traffic on the streets of kolkata at 60…i mean it was a bumper to bumper traffic and still a 60kmph was amazing..seriously..HATSOFF to RTR180 ABS
