      My bike is the best it gives around 45 km mileage and has very high speed. The horn is loud, performance on roads is excellent, and even after 5 years, my Apache still performs really well.

      The ride is awesome with good acceleration, safety features, digital meter reading, side fuel tank flaps, and strong suspensions that give it a rich look and great comfort. However, the service experience hasn’t been good so far, and the chain tends to loosen quickly after long rides.

      It’s a good vehicle with nice looks, flexible driving, and good features. However, there’s a little discomfort for the pillion rider, and the maintenance is slightly expensive. Overall, it has good standards and style, but the cost could have been a bit lower.
