TVS Apache RTR 160/180 2V BS4 Lock Set / Ignition Key Set – N9152280

TVS lock-set reference N9152280 for selected Apache RTR 160 2V and RTR 180 2V motorcycles, especially the specified BS4 ignition/lock configurations. This is a part-number-specific replacement for motorcycles whose original lock set or TVS parts catalogue identifies N9152280.

A motorcycle lock set is part of the ignition and steering-security arrangement. Customers may search for it as an Apache ignition lock set, key set, main switch lock, steering lock, ignition key lock or lock-and-key kit. The exact TVS catalogue name is LOCK SET 1 BS4.

Critical purchase information: This listing identifies one TVS lock-set retail unit by part number. The source catalogues do not establish the exact number of supplied keys or which individual locks and hardware are inside the current retail package. Please confirm box contents before ordering, particularly if you need a matching fuel-cap lock, seat lock, keys, or fasteners.

Product specifications

Motorcycle compatibility – check the exact version

The following table distinguishes catalogue-supported combinations from model families that require additional checks. A model name alone is insufficient: TVS has used more than one lock-set reference across Apache engine generations and model versions.

Why the lock-set part number matters

A damaged or nonmatching lock set can prevent correct ignition-switch operation, key engagement or steering-lock operation. Parts may differ between generations in mounting features, electrical switch/connector design, key pattern and related lock components. The safest method is to compare the original TVS part number, original assembly, and electrical configuration before ordering.

BS3 versus BS4 and later revisions

Common reasons to inspect the lock set

• A broken or damaged ignition-key barrel or mechanical lock mechanism.
• A key that sticks, jams, or does not rotate normally after the correct key and lock condition have been verified.
• Abnormal ignition-switch operation that has been traced to the lock or switch mechanism.
• Damage to the steering-lock function after a fall or attempted theft.
• Replacement of a mismatched or failed lock arrangement after professional diagnosis.

Important: No-start or intermittent electrical power can also result from a discharged battery, main fuse, wiring fault, damaged connector, faulty relay or other electrical problem. Do not replace the lock set solely because the motorcycle does not start.

What will you receive?

1 × TVS lock-set retail unit, part number N9152280.

Pack-content verification required: The available official parts-table references establish one lock-set item but do not provide a reliable bill of materials for the retail box. Therefore this listing does not promise an exact number of keys, replacement fuel-cap lock, seat-lock cylinder, dedicated wiring harness, screws, steering-lock fasteners or other loose pieces. Contents must be checked on the actual N9152280 package.

The lock set is not a complete wiring harness, ECU, immobilizer conversion, battery, starter motor, CDI/TCI unit, ignition coil or handlebar switch.

Before you order – five essential checks

• Check the complete TVS SKU: confirm N9152280 on the original part, packaging or model-specific EPC.
• Check generation and variant: 160 2V, 180 2V, BS4/ABS/Refresh and market versions may use different arrangements.
• Check the physical assembly: compare ignition-lock body, fixing points, key-cylinder layout and any connectors.
• Check what you need: replacing all vehicle locks with matching keys requires confirming the retail-box components.
• Check the package: inspect the part number and included contents before installing or connecting any electrical part.

Fitting and electrical safety

Have the lock set installed by a qualified motorcycle technician. Follow the model-specific TVS service manual and use correct electrical isolation and fastener procedures. Inspect the ignition-switch connector, cable routing, steering movement and locking operation. Do not cut or bypass vehicle-security wiring to force a nonmatching assembly to work.

Before riding, confirm that the key operates correctly, the ignition turns on and off normally, steering movement remains unrestricted when unlocked, the handlebar/steering lock works only as intended, and all relevant electrical functions operate correctly. A steering lock that remains partially engaged is unsafe.

Maintenance and buyer notes

Keep keys clean and avoid forcing a jammed key. If operation becomes stiff or intermittent, diagnose the mechanical and electrical causes rather than applying unsuitable lubricants or modifying the lock. For physical-stock authenticity, check TVS packaging, barcode/label, part number and undamaged contents upon receipt.

The manufacturer parts reference is verified. The exact key count, complete package inventory, lock-cylinder dimensions, connector pin count, key-code system and current printed MRP were not reliably documented by the sources inspected and are intentionally not stated as facts.
