hey guys!
I thought this might be a challenging fight for all bike lovers.

TVS motors had recently launched APACHE in the 150 cc Bike segment. No doubt, its a classic damm hot styled bike but do u think this bike would be able to beat the market king, Pulsar DTS-i.

Apache means a rare Indian Tribe that killed the white men in 19th century.
f you get a chance, watch a Hollywood movie named “CHATO’s LAND”. Chato is an Apache played by Charles Bronson. Chato’s wife is raped and murdered by five white men, and the movie is about Chato’s revenge, and how he single handedly overtakes and kills all five of them one by one. How many bikes (whites? esp. Pulsar) this Apache will overtake, remains to be seen.

Moreover BS Motoring, India has voted Apache as the bike of the year 2006.

This is a battle between the Pulsar 150 DTS-i and TVS’ new Apache. Whom do u vote??????

Plastic market kings don't hold a candle to my Royal Enfield Machismo.

Anyone who talks mileage in a power bike discussion should be thrown out. People here are mentioning HD and Machismo and you are talking mileage...bad...bad boy :p

Anyways, I personally feel Apache is a great ride. Just had a test day before yesterday and it handles really well. It can give Pulsar some serious run for its money.

yup it is but due to low hight it can easly bend on the curves of the roads even in 60+

speed = 60++

Right now I would prefer PULSAR DTS-i because it is tried and tested whereas TVS has no respectable product in market and apache is very new.
