Being tested with two types of handlebars.

The TVS Apache 200 has been snapped on test in Indonesia again. The new spyshots show two prototypes of the Apache 200 which are slightly different from each other. The noticeable difference is the handlebar, as one of the test mules has clip-on bars and the other has a traditional, single-tube handlebar. It is unclear if TVS Motor Company will launch two distinct versions of the Apache or if the company is yet to finalise on the type of handlebar to be used. Neither model is equipped with ABS.
