[Resolved]  TVS Apache RTR 160 — VIBRATION PROBLEM

TVS Motor/ Apache RTR 160


I have purchased Apache RTR 160 in the month of Dec.08 and facing problem with this bike. I am much frustrated with this bike.
I have already made 2 FREE services, after the completion of second service, i noticed my problem to Service center officials. Engine not working fine, lots of vibration particularly at the speed of 60Km (on or above 5000rpm), also engine misfiers, noise level is correct.

The company Service Engineer Mr.Gandhi M., i also shown to him regarding the above problem. He had make a trial, he told me that, above 60km to 75 km there is a such type of problem, and after few seconds the problem will be vanished. But i regularly travel on NH-4 facing the problem daily. Lot of Vibrations to handle and to my hands also.

I have been constantly complaing about the vibration problem but no is taking cognizance of the same.

I ride bike on the highways and its really scary to drive this bike, Nothing stable even after complaints during the service. We have paid Rs.69, 000/- for riding pleasure but unfortunately my experiance with this bike and co. service officials is very bad. I have start to go by 60 Km/Hr after 1000 Kms of running. Now my Speedometer reading is 3594

I have purchased this bike from Mai TVS, Div. of Mohan Auto Ind. Pvt. Ltd., 517-E, Old Pune-Banglore Rd., Kolhapur 416 001.

Engine No: 0E4L82128675. Chassis No- MD634KE4382L031043 Bike No: MH-09/BG[protected]

I am requesting to the co.please take cognizance of the consumer complaints dont force them to make such complaints.

Hi
I purchased Apache RTR 160 in September 2009. Initial one year there was no problem. Now i am also facing the same problem regarding the vibration of handle and Ferring. At a speed of 60 KM/HR - 70 KM/Hr there is vibration. After crossing a speed of 70KM/Hr vibration gets lower and bikes run smoothly. So have concern this with service center but no proper solutions be applied to the bike.
As stated from other people we are facing the problem. If this can be resolved than i do not find any bike as good as Apache in 150 CC segment.

I purchased Apache RTR 160 in Feb 2017, within 10 days bike is making so much noise from the engine as well as from the chain, and the noise is happening only in 2nd and 3rd gear while the the bike is running under 40 Kmph. After completing my first servicing on 6th Mar 2017 and paying a amount Rs 640/- for Engine oil, Chain lubrication, Mobil and etc. the bike is again making noise and vibrating when riding in 2nd and 3rd gear and the speed is in between 15 - 35 Kmph. I purchased the on the basis of performance and specially for the APACHE SOUND, but till yet i am not happy with the bike..
Apache rtr 160 is my first bike and I also face the same above mentioned problems.I also informed the problem to the servicing team.But they couldn't solve it.I think it is the problem with the bike itself.It is better not to purchase this bike.
