TVS Raider Overview

TVS has launched a new drum brake variant of the TVS Raider 125. Check out the details here.

The TVS Raider is a 125cc premium commuter bike from the Chennai-based manufacturer. It comes with sporty looks and modern features which even higher-capacity bikes don’t get. The TVS Raider 125 price starts at Rs 95,439 (ex-showroom). The 125cc TVS bike competes against the likes of the Honda SP 125, Hero Glamour 125, and Bajaj Pulsar NS 125.

TVS Raider Key Highlights

Price: The drum brake variant is priced at Rs 84,869. The single-seat variant of the TVS Raider 125 is priced at Rs 95,869, with the split-seat variant costing Rs 97,709. The SSE variant featuring Marvel superhero theme liveries costs Rs 1,00,989 and the top-spec SX variant will set you back Rs 1,04,330 (all prices ex-showroom Delhi).

Design: The TVS Raider 125 sports an LED face that might remind you of Bumblebee, adhering to a sporty naked design language. The sizeable fuel tank features sharp extensions, and the side panels, combined with split seats, contribute to the motorcycle's sporty appearance. An option for a single-piece seat gives it a more commuter-friendly look. However, the rear design might not be to everyone's liking, with the tail section seeming a bit out of place. Overall, the TVS Raider 125 exudes a premium and sporty vibe for a 125cc offering.

Features: The TVS Raider 125 incorporates an LED headlight and tail lamp but utilises halogens for the turn signals. The drum brake, single seat and split-seat variants feature a negative LCD console displaying essential data like speedometer, tachometer, trip meter, and fuel gauge. Additionally, it includes a low fuel indicator, gear position display, a clock, and a fuel efficiency indicator. The bike also offers switchable ride modes. The top-end SmartXonnect variant boasts a 5-inch colour TFT console with Bluetooth connectivity for features like turn-by-turn navigation, weather updates, music control, call/SMS alerts, voice assistance, nearby fuel pump locations, cricket updates, and social media updates.

Engine: Powering the TVS Raider 125 is a single-cylinder 124.8cc engine with air-cooling and an oil cooler. It generates 11.38PS and 11.2Nm of torque, paired with a 5-speed gearbox.

Suspension, Brakes & Other Details: The bike's chassis is supported by a telescopic front fork and a 5-step preload-adjustable monoshock in the rear. Braking setup consists ofa 240mm disc at the front and a 130mm drum at the rear, equipped with standard CBS. The drum brake variant gets 130mm drum brakes at both ends. The 17-inch alloy wheels are wrapped in 80-section (front) and 100-section (rear) tubeless tyres.

Rivals: The TVS Raider 125 faces competition from models like the Honda SP125, Bajaj Pulsar NS125, and the Hero Xtreme 125R.

Variants: The TVS Raider 125 is available in five variants: Drum, Single Seat, Split Seat, SSE and SX. The Drum and Single seat model comes in Striking Red and Wicked Black colour schemes, while the split seat variant offers a choice of four colours (Fiery Yellow, Blazing Blue, Striking Red, and Wicked Black). The top-end SX variant comes in two paint schemes (Fiery Yellow and Wicked Black). Notably, the base and mid-spec variants differ only in seat type.
