Atleast in vizag, TVS has the worst service centers. Staff is not even trained well to fix the vehicle issue. I had Jupiter 125 and it's intelligo feature is not working as expected since I took the delivery, showroom people said it should cross 500km to work and it didn't... Later they said service people would fix it. These idiots doesn't even knows how to fix it. They use to rev the engine to max and then this intelligo feature works and again after sometime it's comes back to normal. They tortured me for 1 year by doing this. Later someone in the internet shared the same problem and resolution on how he fixed it, saw the comments and shown the same to service people.. later they replaced the parts after knowing that I'm eligible to file a case in consumer court. I strictly do not recommend TVS bikes not because of my issue, there are many people who were struggling with their service just a while in a day for every 3 months. Imagine how many complaints they get allover 365 days

But Sriman, this is an older Duke 250 and not the detuned LC4C with 31PS. I know it’s a promotional sort of video for the dealer/brand, but the fact is that the Duke 250 Gen3 is just selling more than the RTR.
I disagree with you, Test drived RTR 310 and Owned Duke 250 2025 edition. Duke's Torque is on par with RTR if not better. You are comparing brand new machine with 2year old Duke model. Come-on it's not a fair ground. On a side note, I don't like RTR exhaust design which looks like the one on TVS Raider.
I have a zx6r for weekend rides and I got this tvs apache new one as commuter and daily rides or short rides ... it's a beautiful bike the electronics and features are top notch and service and maintainance is very cheap (affordable) ❤ ofcourse since it's our indian brand, we would make jokes outta it ... but it's an underrated and a beautiful bike indeed ❤ you can close your eyes and get this beautiful machine apache 🔥
Thanks for your opinion brother I also drove it oh man what a bike what a power it has a very good character. I think if you want to upgrade from a 150 cc definitely it will be a good choice. Finally I made up my mind

Should have ridden in urban mode .At speeds less than 80kmph the pickup is brutal in urban mode when compared to other modes it almost gives the vibe of duke 390
Triumph's fit and finish is better, after sales, spares and service is on the higher side. TVS is 80% close but advantage is service/spares etc are much cheaper
Sir if you don't mind can you also make a video on Triumph Scrambler 900 or 1200. I know it's not in your best interest segment but there not many videos on them from Indian youtubers. I'm curious about how practical are they in India.
@SrimanKotaru thank you for responding Sir. I do agree they may not be a good option to ride it as daily commuter. Actually I'm not even looking to buy a bike 😅, I'm curious about scramblers and enthusiastic about Triumph scramblers specifically, I like the looks, design, engine sound ( heard from official website and TH-cam) so I'm kind of curious and wondering have you ever ride them.
Tvs is going to cook something, cause it wouldn't take 7 years by keeping little and little i provements to bikes and it did so cause they must be seem like doing something and brought up something in the mean time. Don't you think same??
The problem is wth service centre anna I have rtr 160 4v but the service centre doesn’t work well my opinion is you can go wth speed 400 its good bike I test drive that bike
Apache’s power is great, but it is a vibrator, NVH levels are not contained well at all, the menus are confusing, turning radius is a joke (I had a 160 4v, turning radius in that was a joke too), the electronics are gimmicky: if you add quick shifter, cruise control, ventilated seats, etc., this would become almost as expensive as a D390, which is not a good thing. 🥲 Try out the CB300R, probably the best 300cc bike out there.
I have come to a realization after these many years that you're just a ultra materialistic person!! Always talking about money, bikes, cars, traveling. All these things look cool, but does not provide true happiness!!
hiii sriman anna i am following you from 4-5 years exactly i learned so many things from you about bikes and investments and i wanted to say that i also own a 1-gen tvs apache rtr160 it is still there and it was my first bike and i loved it till now

I know the bike accessories are expensive but most of the price you're paying is to the Indian tax department that they have over important items.
Anyways all thing a side i am already a owner of aprilia rs457, it's just that i want sriman's opinion on it.
Except the exhaust everything looks good.
Yes, It looks cheap like every other 100 commuter bikes.
But Sriman, this is an older Duke 250 and not the detuned LC4C with 31PS.
I know it’s a promotional sort of video for the dealer/brand, but the fact is that the Duke 250 Gen3 is just selling more than the RTR.
What is the torque curve? I've always found Duke's engine to have a later torque surge than in the beginning..
@@SrimanKotaru NOPE. Even on the new gen the torque is flat and more drivable than rtr 310.

You have forgot the quick shifter, one of the special feature in the small segment bikes
Should have ridden in urban mode .At speeds less than 80kmph the pickup is brutal in urban mode when compared to other modes it almost gives the vibe of duke 390
why would you pay 3L for a 300cc rather than getting a 400cc(eg:speed 400) for the same price
With a yearly once maintenance ❤

Anna can you suggest 400cc bikes which is good for long journey as well as city ride
Happy to see checking lower cc bikes by sriman 🎉
Sriman you should have test rode the new 2024 KTM Duke 250 rather than the old one which does' t even compared to Apache RTR 310 2024.

Indian first bike to ventilator seat
Hi anna, I actually saw you on the day you were riding the ktm and I took a video clip of you .
Which one is much better? speed 400 or this one???
Triumph's fit and finish is better, after sales, spares and service is on the higher side. TVS is 80% close but advantage is service/spares etc are much cheaper
@@SrimanKotaru thank you brother.....big fan ✌️✌️
Sriman once test ride a duke 250 u will definitely love it and buy it
Need more vlogs with Charan Kotaru
Hey hello sriman

Cousin ✅
Cousin could be anyone sister, brother, older one or younger.
So saying cousin brother is an extra detailing
@chantimangi8848 Cousin brother Ane word English grammar lo wrong ayya 👍
@@VK-yl5ge yea but what if you have to specify exactly
There are only vibrations on this bike, for city rides it's a hell to ride. Everything else (unfortunately) is fantastic
Sir if you don't mind can you also make a video on Triumph Scrambler 900 or 1200. I know it's not in your best interest segment but there not many videos on them from Indian youtubers. I'm curious about how practical are they in India.
It depends on the purpose. If ur need is for daily commute, a scrambler is not the best option.

Would you please give us a review about the newly Royal Enfield also,,,if their is time, for you subscriber and royal Enfield lover
Nice advertisement
My Friend is the Designer of this Bike.
I am a ktm bs6 user and I wouldn’t receive ktm because the torque is missing ..when compared to the older version 😊
Bhai genuinely bike leni hai to triumph speed 400 or scram lelo without any doubt
Apache 310 is lit but the only miss is 11 litre tank atleast 14 litres would make sense for it's mileage
This bike is also co engineered by bmw
Anna please review the new Royal Enfield's Interceptor Bear 650
The problem is wth service centre anna I have rtr 160 4v but the service centre doesn’t work well my opinion is you can go wth speed 400 its good bike I test drive that bike
@sriman …. Pls take a test drive of Guerrilla 450 dude …. It’s awesome 👍
Anna it can't beat the bmw 310
If this was just a regular test ride then it would shot in iPhone camera itself. When the DSLR is out here you know ….you know😅
Sriram please check on the best classic bikes in this power range 300cc
BRAHAMI:--They paid know😅😅😅
I own a tvs Rtr 160 which is very good bike but the only problem is the service. It’s really a worst service in Visakhapatnam.
Nice acting sriman anna ❤
Can u please try out the ns400z if possible
Hi Anna test ride the Aprilia RS457❤
It's not RTR, It was a normal apachi first-generation bike
Apache’s power is great, but it is a vibrator, NVH levels are not contained well at all, the menus are confusing, turning radius is a joke (I had a 160 4v, turning radius in that was a joke too), the electronics are gimmicky: if you add quick shifter, cruise control, ventilated seats, etc., this would become almost as expensive as a D390, which is not a good thing. 🥲 Try out the CB300R, probably the best 300cc bike out there.
Apache is almost looks like zx10r in design aspects 😊
I guess you rode used ktm comparatively brand new apache
03:20 to 03:28 Typical Indian Men 🔥💯
Please wait for Brixton 500XC and review it.
Please do test ride Apache RR310 Also
Its not customer's bike right?
Apache rtr 310 vs speed 400 ???
Main problem is apache is Brake failure and engine is not for future
U should b comparing new with new...u chose an old n used version Duke with new showroom wala bike..enna thammbi.....Ela itey ala?

That is Apache surge 150 btw...

Opinion on Aprilia Rs457 plz😊
Good!!
Compare duke 390 😏
Apache's are awesone bikes, but vibrations are terrible.
I have Apache 160 4v. I would never suggest a TVS bike to anyone at all 🤣
