About the TVS Apache 150

Overview

The TVS Apache 150 is a motorcycle from TVS Motor. It was launched in 2005 and has since been discontinued. Mechiee still services it at your doorstep. With a 147 cc engine it sits in the 125–150 cc class.

Engine and performance

Power comes from a 147 cc air-cooled engine that makes 13.7 PS at 8,500 rpm and 12.3 Nm of torque at 6,000 rpm. Divide power by kerb weight and it has about 101 PS per tonne; by that measure, there is enough go for confident city riding and relaxed highway cruising. It has both electric and kick start.

Gearbox

It has a 5-speed manual gearbox, and a chain carries drive to the rear wheel.

Chassis, brakes and tyres

Suspension is by telescopic forks, 105 mm stroke at the front and monotube inverted gas-filled shocks (MIG) at the rear. Braking is by a 240 mm disc at the front and a 130 mm drum at the rear. It rides on 17-inch front and 18-inch rear wheels — 90/90 x 17 at the front and 100/80 x 18 at the rear.

Size, comfort and range

It weighs 136 kg ready to ride. Ground clearance is 165 mm — enough for most speed breakers. It is 2,020 mm long, with 1,260 mm between the axles. It carries 16.0 L of fuel.

Owning the TVS Apache 150

  • Mechiee doorstep service

    ₹899

    Mechiee's fixed doorstep service price for this model.

Maintaining the TVS Apache 150

  • Routine servicing

    Follow the schedule in the owner's manual for your exact variant and year. A regular service is the cheapest way to catch small problems before they become expensive ones.

  • Engine oil & filter

    Engine oil is the single most important consumable to keep fresh. Top up between services if the level drops, and change it on schedule.

  • Brake inspection

    With Disc, 240 mm and Drum, 130 mm brakes, check pad or shoe wear, lever and pedal free play, and braking feel at every service.

  • Chain cleaning & lubrication

    A clean, correctly tensioned and lubricated chain lasts longer and wastes less power. Check slack regularly, especially after riding in rain or dust.

  • Air filter & spark plug

    A clogged air filter or worn spark plug shows up as hard starting, weak throttle response and poorer fuel economy. Both are checked at a regular service and replaced when worn.

  • Disc brake fluid

    Brake fluid absorbs moisture over time, which lowers its boiling point. Have its level and condition checked and change it on the interval in the owner's manual.

  • Tyre inspection

    This bike runs 90/90 x 17 / 100/80 x 18 tyres. Check pressure, tread depth and sidewalls, and replace tyres that are worn or cracked.

  • Battery & electricals

    Weak starting, dim lights or a flickering console are early signs the battery or charging system needs a look.

TVS Apache 150 specs explained

What the technical terms on this page mean.

Air cooling
The engine is cooled by air flowing over its fins. It is simpler and needs no coolant, which keeps upkeep straightforward.
Kerb weight
The weight of the bike ready to ride, with its fluids and fuel, but without a rider or luggage.
Bore x stroke
The cylinder's width and the piston's travel. A larger bore relative to stroke tends to favour revs; a longer stroke tends to favour low-speed pull.
