25 BHP TVS Apache RTR 200 Race Bike: Race Engineer Explains All Mods

Here's everything there is to know about TVS Apache RTR 200 One-Make Championship motorcycle and all that is different on it from the production-spec bike.
TVS Race Engineer Prithvi, who has been heading development on this bike for a year now, explains how this motorcycle has just the right balance between power and handling and what we can look forward to in the years to come.
But this is not the only race bike that TVS has built. They have a One-Make Apache RR310 that makes over 40 horsepower and is some 35 kg lighter than the stock bike. You can learn more about that bike here: • 45 BHP Apache RR310 Ra...

And if you'd like to see how TVS won the 2020 national championship with that bike, you must watch this: • How TVS Won The 2020 N...

[@pistonblazeautomotive7889]

Which kind of mods?

[@GameDevSaiTejVejju]

@@pistonblazeautomotive7889 Not mods, they are riding modes given in the new edition of rtr 200. Sport, urban and rain mode. Sport mode is for faster driving whereas urban tunes down the engine to suit city drives. You can definitely feel the difference especially if you are in higher revs. I have yet to test rain mode on my bike. I've recently cruised more than 200 kms on highway and the ride was super smooth at speeds of 100 to 110 in sport mode

[@premchandpc1355]

They've added steel braided brake lines for the exceptional handling of front and rear

[@rempuial2530]

The only complaint I had on the RTR200 was the stiff rear and the soft front. Tuning the rear damping (tiny more compression and a more controlled rebound) would've complemented the front. I felt at hard braking, the front compressed too much making it lose stability (much chatter) which could've been solved by the very stable rear, if it was less stiff. (Perhaps more damping at the rear and less compression at the front?) A bigger carb with FFE would've solved the issue I felt of power trailing away after the 7500rpm mark although it could still rev so much more especially in 3rd gear corners (shifting down to 2nd sometimes was an overkill) But then, it depends on the road and riding style we try to adapt to. The pickup, brakes and the rear stability are the awesome parts. Wish TVS offered more tuning components to their customers-which they do in the new version. Sadly, I haven't tried it :( Oh! the 6th Gear!!! When is it coming??!?!?!?!
