TVS Motor Company has extended its product
portfolio in the Malaysian market with the launch of the Apache RTR200 4V Race
Edition. The motorcycle has been launched in the country at RM 10,950. The Made-in-India motorcycle is assembled in Indonesia, and imported
into Malaysia.
The TVS Apache RTR200 4V Race Edition, which was
launched in the Indian market in March 2018, features an Anti-Reverse Torque
(A-RT) Slipper Clutch. The Malaysia spec model uses the fuel-injected version
of the engine. The 197.75cc single-cylinder, oil-cooled, four-valves per
cylinder motor delivers 21 PS of maximum power at 8,500 rpm and 18.1 Nm of peak
torque at 7,000 rpm. Power is sent to the rear wheel through a five-speed
gearbox.
A 270 mm Petal-type disc at the front and a 240 mm
Petal-type disc at the rear perform the anchoring tasks. The motorcycle is
available with a Dual Channel ABS with Rear Wheel Lift-off Protection (RLP) in
the Indian market. The Malaysia spec version, however, does not get ABS.
Conventional telescopic forks at the front and a
preload-adjustable monoshock at the rear end perform suspension duties. The
motorcycle will be available in matte red, white and black colour options in
the Malaysian market.
