"Apache is the result of TVS racing heritage and has been born on the racetrack and was built to redefine and set a benchmark in the Performance Segment, both in terms of leading edge technology and design styling. We took the Apache to the next level with the launch of the RTR or Racing Throttle Response, an integration of superior R&D efforts and application of lessons learnt on the vindictive racing tracks in India. We therefore created a premier street bike, high on performance by combining TVS Racing's technology with R&D know how. This was followed by the introduction of fuel injection technology for the first time in the 160 cc category. We have now introduced the option of a rear disc at a nominal price. The priority in every step of the Apache brand's development has been Performance. Every system, detail and component has been tuned to maximize Performance" said H S Goindi, President, Marketing TVS Motor Company.
The disc brake variant is available at a nominal premium of Rs. 2000/- over the existing rear drum brake version.
