My TVS Apache 150cc

-
Two years down the lane and my TVS Apache still rocks. It is quick, responsive and stable as it was before. I have no counts on the number of times I touched 100kmph, did bends and gimmicks with this beast. No qualms in having bought this one. I had a couple of terrible accidents though. Not that serious. I accidently tend to cluth the front brakes too hard oblivious to the fact that they are too responsive. Now this is dangerous for anybody. NEVER NEVER NEVER clutch your disk brakes so hard. It could be disastrous.

It took me a while to realise that the rear drum brakes helped a lot in preventing the vehicle from skidding. And it is always better to drive slow. I have now controlled my adrenaline of driving fast. Its not worth it to put yours and others lives in stake. But my beast is healthy. He rides as he did before. Its definitely a great bike.

Expensive and Worthless!! What do you say?

Porsche Cayenne GTS is worth 1.3 crores and has a mileage of 5 kmpl. Audi 2.0 TDI is 44 lacs and has a mileage of about 10 kmpl. Skoda Rapid is about 9.5 lacs and gives a mileage of 10 kmpl. Audi 3.0 TDI is about 48 lacs and gives a mileage of 7.5 kmpl. Are these cars worth the bucks? Maybe, if the purpose is just to show off.

402 kms and still going

There was an issue with the gearbox cover as it had no screw in it. I was wondering how TVS could ever sell a product to the customer without testing and verfication of the all possible defects and missing parts in the bike. ???? Had gone to the showroom to replace the screw and boom! I found a furious customer shooting flame balls at a TVS representative on the mileage that his Black Apache provided. He was crying over a pathetic figure of 30 or less. Neverthless out here with me the breeze is cool and plausible. 400 km and still going like a gun. No worries, no tension. After all, in my opinion, no matter what be the vehicle, It all depend upon how you ride it. Proper usage of the clutch, right gear at the right speed and engine rpm etc. are all such examples. Apart from that a defect in the product is not your problem. You can always go and claim or even sue the manufacturer. So no worries and happy riding.
