  • Tvs ronin performance in a unique package

    47 weeks ago


    Prasanta Baidya

    Review: tvs ronin bike
    The tvs ronin is a stunning motorcycle that combines power, style, and performance in a unique package. As an avid motorcycle enthusiast, i had the opportunity to ride and experience this bike firsthand, and i must say it left a lasting impression on me.
    First and foremost, the design of the tvs ronin is simply breathtaking. With its sleek and aggressive lines, it exudes a sense of power and speed. The attention to detail is evident in every aspect, from the beautifully crafted fuel tank to the sharp led headlamps. The bike has a modern and futuristic appeal that sets it apart from other motorcycles on the market.
    When it comes to performance, the tvs ronin truly shines. Powered by a high-performance engine, it delivers an exhilarating ride. The acceleration is quick, and the bike effortlessly reaches high speeds. The handling is precise and responsive, allowing for nimble maneuvering in both city traffic and open highways. The suspension setup provides a comfortable ride while maintaining stability, even on bumpy roads.
    One of the standout features of the tvs ronin is its advanced technology. The bike comes equipped with a fully digital instrument cluster that provides a wealth of information at a glance. It includes a speedometer, tachometer, fuel gauge, gear indicator, and various other essential indicators. Additionally, the bike features a usb charging port, allowing riders to conveniently charge their devices on the go.
    Safety is always a top priority, and the tvs ronin doesn't disappoint in this regard. It is equipped with a robust braking system that offers excellent stopping power, giving riders confidence in various riding conditions. Furthermore, the bike features anti-lock braking system (abs) technology, enhancing safety by preventing wheel lock-up during sudden braking.
    Another aspect worth mentioning is the comfort and ergonomics of the tvs ronin. The seating position is well-designed, providing a comfortable ride even during long journeys. The footpegs and handlebars are appropriately placed, contributing to a relaxed riding posture. Additionally, the seat cushioning is plush and supportive, ensuring rider comfort over extended periods.
    In conclusion, the tvs ronin is an exceptional motorcycle that impresses on all fronts. Its stunning design, powerful performance, advanced technology, and focus on safety make it a standout choice in the market. Whether you're a seasoned rider seeking an adrenaline-fueled experience or a casual enthusiast looking for a stylish ride, the tvs ronin is undoubtedly worth considering.

    32 weeks ago


    Bipul Sarkar

    I have been riding this bike for more than one year. It is the perfect bike for those who travel daily, travel to hill areas with offroading, city rides,s and more. It is an all-rounder bike with satisfactory performance. I am getting 44 to 47 km mileage with 80 to 85 kmph speed riding. It's value for money.

  • The Ronin Cruise

    6 weeks ago


    Krishna Mohan

    It has a great sitting seat which makes it comfortable and also a short-height bike which makes it easy to control. By looks and performance, it's a decent bike. Service and maintenance is also easy. It has a decent refined engine. Its disadvantage is noticeable that is geared some notchy type and its mudguard design can also be made better.

  • A real Samurai- perfect for beginners and city ride

    1 year ago


    Aniruddha Thombare

    It's a beautiful bike that is powerful, strong looking yet not intimidating. As a first-time rider, it's easy to handle, control, and ride. The gear switching is smooth, the braking is near perfect giving you great pleasure and experience.
    As a beginner, I was simply confused between the Hunter and Ronin. Hunter is beautiful too, but the Ronin is a better one for beating the city traffic and occasional long drives.

  • A tamed beast- t-rex

    1 year ago


    Amit Upadhyaya

    1) buying experience(6/10) - I bought it in kolkata and the sales team were very active to pitch the product. However, I felt that post the payment they all left me alone to navigate and get the delivery of my bike. I am used to seeing big key handovers for bikes and all on Instagram and Facebook and however, nothing happened with me and I felt a little bit disappointed. Maybe it happened in that particular showroom of tvs and when asked how much petrol is there in the tank they mentioned sufficient enough to reach the nearest petrol pump and I was surprised as for a fuel injection machine a minimum of 3 liters needs to be in the tank and when asked for it they said: "petrol bahot mehenga hai" . So overall the room experience could have been better.
    2) riding experience (8/10):- my t-rex is very comfortable to ride with beautiful ergonomics and comfort at every rev. The shocker absorbs most of the bumps. However, if you are looking for excitement then the ronin is not for you. The Rev doesn't feel powerful the one you can feel on maybe honda cb300f (same price). It sure catches the eyes here and there. I am loving the experience as I am a little bit of a boring kinda person who doesn't want high speeds. The highway experience was good either. Ronin can cruise comfortably at 80-85 kmph , anything above 90 gives a little bit tough time to the engine -7/10. City drives cannot be more comfortable - 10/10 on this. Rain is a little bit of pain in the back, like literally as the is a lot of mud bounces from the back and it would ruin the back of the pillion or rider. Tried finding a proper tire hugger but the position of the rear mudguard is very awkward to place any tire hugger.
    3 details about looks, performance, etc(8/10)- ronin's looks are very subjective, so I am giving just my opinion - I find it very handsome and dashing - the grey color looks fabulous on the beast and everything clicks -the front is work of marvel. It's beautiful and sexy to look at.
    Performance is quite good as well as expected the square engine produces distributed power at every gear quite nicely and you don't feel under-powered at any gear, even the fifth. The torque and power may look less as compared to any other 200+ cc bike but to be very honest it was designed like this itself. Bluetooth connection is poorly made - just plain stupid - dte is inconsistent even if you are a consistent rider with 4000rpm and maintaining below 55kmph. Mileage ranged from 36-40 (36,40,38 before the first service and 38 after the first service). No engine heating issues were found. After the first service top speed was achieved with the pillion 115 kmph.
    4) service and maintenance(na) -service was quite fast and not sure what they did. Surely changed the air filter and mobil however I noticed they did not was my bike. Maybe I kept it clean that's why.
    5)pros -
    A) looks are beautiful
    B)seats are very comfortable for the rider
    C)shock absorbers are very good.
    D)high beam very good.
    E)engine is very smooth.
    F) front abs work amazingly.
    Cons-
    A)badly made right mirror which is just poorly designed.
    B)low beam light is not sufficient at all.
    C) mudguard is ineffective and spills water.
    D) training not given on new bike ronin to the engineers in the workshop.
    E)bad sales team.
    F) disc plates are cheap quality,
    G)rear brakes are just bad.
    Overall take your decision by yourself, I love the bike and plan to stick to it till T-rex doesn't give up my overall rating is 8/10. What about you?

  • Unscripted but....!

    41 weeks ago


    Shyam

    Disclaimer: Lengthy review
    My priorities (before getting the Ronin) were.
    Honda CB350
    TVS ronin
    Hunter 350
    I am a beginner rider, I am a five feet and eleven inches tall guy, I thought to go for these three as
    *Honda engine is something you can close your eyes and invest in & the fit and finish is too impeccable and
    * Second TVS, I believe they are genius (after Honda) when you compare the Engine refinement and reliability and then
    * Royal Enfield J-series platform with the 181Kg hunter is something I tried at first, but I find a bit confident less when I ride on speed breakers and more over the machine is something that I couldn't define itself to me (about its nature), hence hunter was my third priority.
    Since due to some constraints (beginner rider, cost, etc.), I preferred Ronin over others, if not, you could have seen my review on the CB350 page for sure.
    RONIN: I don't go deep into technicalities as you can see on the page itself, I write something that I felt!
    This is a serious cult with a better reliable engine and smooth as butter. It's just like having "ragi malt with onions", the gear shift is just like the crispiness of onion, and engine smoothness is just as smooth as the Ragi Malt, I couldn't get a better example than this. Just imagine how this combo works, the same way the Ronin works too.
    But, on the other side, manufacturing defects! on the first service, need to get rid of this! my bike it's turn indicator button problem, a fuel gauge sensor, and Bluetooth pairing issues.
    The buying experience is good. salespersons are quite efficient and kind. Such small gestures from them are pleasing to see.
    The riding experience is just like butter, smooth clutch action with a "springy" response and the engine makes me believe that it is good to handle different conditions.
    Visual is good as a cruiser (from the front) and scrambler on the rear side.
    My best suggestion is that,
    when planning on long rides, take out the stock mirrors, use bar end round mirrors or round mirrors on the handlebars,
    This mirror is something TVS needs to check on! visually it look's "odd/awkward"(subjective from person to person)!!... when disclosing it as a cruiser, it should have cruiser elements from the front, at the least!

    Tips for other riders

    This machine is beautiful. to ride treat it like a brother, not just a machine, i believe it gives you more fun that you expect! Before first service, just ride it peacefully for less that 60Kmph any roads because, at higher speeds you may not notice the defect, but you will look into defects when you ride slowly, I have found such defects in mine too. On the other side, check always for Tank-to-tank mileage, this is the best way to check for mileage. Ride 45-60Kmph for better mileage. Service the vehicle as per schedule, where the mileage may increase by 2-5 km/per liter after every service, so overall, you may get around 45-55Kmpl or more/less, after completion of all services. Note: Mileage variation on any services depend on the many factors, check those.

  • Worth buying unscripted if you are flexible around your scripted expectations slightly.

    1 year ago


    Santhosh Selvaraj

    The buying experience was very good and smooth. It gives a very smooth riding experience, the comfortable seats give pleasure in riding the bike even for long distances. This is actually a very nice dispute of small spoilers, it is a budget beast packed with full of options. It has outstanding pick-up since the torque is high but I'm disappointed with the top speed max which 120km by squeezing the bike, 110km with a lot of vibration, 100km with a very smooth experience. Life-saving brakes, but boiling engine (only in traffic). About the service I'm highly disappointed, I took it from them, they provide bad first service. Now I'm in hyderabad and couldn't find a well-authorised tvs service centre, I can only see tvs service centres with 1 or 2 ratings, and there is no option to find out who is the authorised service centre as well. Haven't explored the maintenance. Pros are design, option-packed cluster, comfortable ride, above-average performance, outstanding pickup, and sexy exhaust note. Cons are high speed, tvs turn by turn navigation, fewer options in colour variants, and low beam light. Please do not trust turn-by-turn navigation and get into trouble, it needs a lot of improvement.

    3 details about looks, performance, etc(8/10)- ronin's looks are very subjective, so I am giving just my opinion - I find it very handsome and dashing - the grey color looks fabulous on the beast and everything clicks -the front is work of marvel. It's beautiful and sexy to look at.
    Performance is quite good as well as expected the square engine produces distributed power at every gear quite nicely and you don't feel under-powered at any gear, even the fifth. The torque and power may look less as compared to any other 200+ cc bike but to be very honest it was designed like this itself. Bluetooth connection is poorly made - just plain stupid - dte is inconsistent even if you are a consistent rider with 4000rpm and maintaining below 55kmph. Mileage ranged from 36-40 (36,40,38 before the first service and 38 after the first service). No engine heating issues were found. After the first service top speed was achieved with the pillion 115 kmph.
    4) service and maintenance(na) -service was quite fast and not sure what they did. Surely changed the air filter and mobil however I noticed they did not was my bike. Maybe I kept it clean that's why.
    5)pros -
    A) looks are beautiful
    B)seats are very comfortable for the rider
    C)shock absorbers are very good.
    D)high beam very good.
    E)engine is very smooth.
    F) front abs work amazingly.
    Cons-
    A)badly made right mirror which is just poorly designed.
    B)low beam light is not sufficient at all.
    C) mudguard is ineffective and spills water.
    D) training not given on new bike ronin to the engineers in the workshop.
    E)bad sales team.
    F) disc plates are cheap quality,
    G)rear brakes are just bad.
    Overall take your decision by yourself, I love the bike and plan to stick to it till T-rex doesn't give up my overall rating is 8/10. What about you?

  • Unscripted but....!

    41 weeks ago


    Shyam

    Disclaimer: Lengthy review
    My priorities (before getting the Ronin) were.
    Honda CB350
    TVS ronin
    Hunter 350
    I am a beginner rider, I am a five feet and eleven inches tall guy, I thought to go for these three as
    *Honda engine is something you can close your eyes and invest in & the fit and finish is too impeccable and
    * Second TVS, I believe they are genius (after Honda) when you compare the Engine refinement and reliability and then
    * Royal Enfield J-series platform with the 181Kg hunter is something I tried at first, but I find a bit confident less when I ride on speed breakers and more over the machine is something that I couldn't define itself to me (about its nature), hence hunter was my third priority.
    Since due to some constraints (beginner rider, cost, etc.), I preferred Ronin over others, if not, you could have seen my review on the CB350 page for sure.
    RONIN: I don't go deep into technicalities as you can see on the page itself, I write something that I felt!
    This is a serious cult with a better reliable engine and smooth as butter. It's just like having "ragi malt with onions", the gear shift is just like the crispiness of onion, and engine smoothness is just as smooth as the Ragi Malt, I couldn't get a better example than this. Just imagine how this combo works, the same way the Ronin works too.
    But, on the other side, manufacturing defects! on the first service, need to get rid of this! my bike it's turn indicator button problem, a fuel gauge sensor, and Bluetooth pairing issues.
    The buying experience is good. salespersons are quite efficient and kind. Such small gestures from them are pleasing to see.
    The riding experience is just like butter, smooth clutch action with a "springy" response and the engine makes me believe that it is good to handle different conditions.
    Visual is good as a cruiser (from the front) and scrambler on the rear side.
    My best suggestion is that,
    when planning on long rides, take out the stock mirrors, use bar end round mirrors or round mirrors on the handlebars,
    This mirror is something TVS needs to check on! visually it look's "odd/awkward"(subjective from person to person)!!... when disclosing it as a cruiser, it should have cruiser elements from the front, at the least!

    Tips for other riders

    This machine is beautiful. to ride treat it like a brother, not just a machine, i believe it gives you more fun that you expect! Before first service, just ride it peacefully for less that 60Kmph any roads because, at higher speeds you may not notice the defect, but you will look into defects when you ride slowly, I have found such defects in mine too. On the other side, check always for Tank-to-tank mileage, this is the best way to check for mileage. Ride 45-60Kmph for better mileage. Service the vehicle as per schedule, where the mileage may increase by 2-5 km/per liter after every service, so overall, you may get around 45-55Kmpl or more/less, after completion of all services. Note: Mileage variation on any services depend on the many factors, check those.

  • Worth buying unscripted if you are flexible around your scripted expectations slightly.

    1 year ago


    Santhosh Selvaraj

    The buying experience was very good and smooth. It gives a very smooth riding experience, the comfortable seats give pleasure in riding the bike even for long distances. This is actually a very nice dispute of small spoilers, it is a budget beast packed with full of options. It has outstanding pick-up since the torque is high but I'm disappointed with the top speed max which 120km by squeezing the bike, 110km with a lot of vibration, 100km with a very smooth experience. Life-saving brakes, but boiling engine (only in traffic). About the service I'm highly disappointed, I took it from them, they provide bad first service. Now I'm in hyderabad and couldn't find a well-authorised tvs service centre, I can only see tvs service centres with 1 or 2 ratings, and there is no option to find out who is the authorised service centre as well. Haven't explored the maintenance. Pros are design, option-packed cluster, comfortable ride, above-average performance, outstanding pickup, and sexy exhaust note. Cons are high speed, tvs turn by turn navigation, fewer options in colour variants, and low beam light. Please do not trust turn-by-turn navigation and get into trouble, it needs a lot of improvement.

  • Tvs ronin performance in a unique package

    47 weeks ago


    Prasanta Baidya

    Review: tvs ronin bike
    The tvs ronin is a stunning motorcycle that combines power, style, and performance in a unique package. As an avid motorcycle enthusiast, i had the opportunity to ride and experience this bike firsthand, and i must say it left a lasting impression on me.
    First and foremost, the design of the tvs ronin is simply breathtaking. With its sleek and aggressive lines, it exudes a sense of power and speed. The attention to detail is evident in every aspect, from the beautifully crafted fuel tank to the sharp led headlamps. The bike has a modern and futuristic appeal that sets it apart from other motorcycles on the market.
    When it comes to performance, the tvs ronin truly shines. Powered by a high-performance engine, it delivers an exhilarating ride. The acceleration is quick, and the bike effortlessly reaches high speeds. The handling is precise and responsive, allowing for nimble maneuvering in both city traffic and open highways. The suspension setup provides a comfortable ride while maintaining stability, even on bumpy roads.
    One of the standout features of the tvs ronin is its advanced technology. The bike comes equipped with a fully digital instrument cluster that provides a wealth of information at a glance. It includes a speedometer, tachometer, fuel gauge, gear indicator, and various other essential indicators. Additionally, the bike features a usb charging port, allowing riders to conveniently charge their devices on the go.
    Safety is always a top priority, and the tvs ronin doesn't disappoint in this regard. It is equipped with a robust braking system that offers excellent stopping power, giving riders confidence in various riding conditions. Furthermore, the bike features anti-lock braking system (abs) technology, enhancing safety by preventing wheel lock-up during sudden braking.
    Another aspect worth mentioning is the comfort and ergonomics of the tvs ronin. The seating position is well-designed, providing a comfortable ride even during long journeys. The footpegs and handlebars are appropriately placed, contributing to a relaxed riding posture. Additionally, the seat cushioning is plush and supportive, ensuring rider comfort over extended periods.
    In conclusion, the tvs ronin is an exceptional motorcycle that impresses on all fronts. Its stunning design, powerful performance, advanced technology, and focus on safety make it a standout choice in the market. Whether you're a seasoned rider seeking an adrenaline-fueled experience or a casual enthusiast looking for a stylish ride, the tvs ronin is undoubtedly worth considering.

    Bipul Sarkar

    I have been riding this bike for more than one year. It is the perfect bike for those who travel daily, travel to hill areas with offroading, city rides,s and more. It is an all-rounder bike with satisfactory performance. I am getting 44 to 47 km mileage with 80 to 85 kmph speed riding. It's value for money.

  • The Ronin Cruise

    6 weeks ago


    Krishna Mohan

    It has a great sitting seat which makes it comfortable and also a short-height bike which makes it easy to control. By looks and performance, it's a decent bike. Service and maintenance is also easy. It has a decent refined engine. Its disadvantage is noticeable that is geared some notchy type and its mudguard design can also be made better.

  • A real Samurai- perfect for beginners and city ride

    1 year ago


    Aniruddha Thombare

    It's a beautiful bike that is powerful, strong looking yet not intimidating. As a first-time rider, it's easy to handle, control, and ride. The gear switching is smooth, the braking is near perfect giving you great pleasure and experience.
    As a beginner, I was simply confused between the Hunter and Ronin. Hunter is beautiful too, but the Ronin is a better one for beating the city traffic and occasional long drives.

  • A tamed beast- t-rex

    1 year ago


    Amit Upadhyaya

    1) buying experience(6/10) - I bought it in kolkata and the sales team were very active to pitch the product. However, I felt that post the payment they all left me alone to navigate and get the delivery of my bike. I am used to seeing big key handovers for bikes and all on Instagram and Facebook and however, nothing happened with me and I felt a little bit disappointed. Maybe it happened in that particular showroom of tvs and when asked how much petrol is there in the tank they mentioned sufficient enough to reach the nearest petrol pump and I was surprised as for a fuel injection machine a minimum of 3 liters needs to be in the tank and when asked for it they said: "petrol bahot mehenga hai" . So overall the room experience could have been better.
    2) riding experience (8/10):- my t-rex is very comfortable to ride with beautiful ergonomics and comfort at every rev. The shocker absorbs most of the bumps. However, if you are looking for excitement then the ronin is not for you. The Rev doesn't feel powerful the one you can feel on maybe honda cb300f (same price). It sure catches the eyes here and there. I am loving the experience as I am a little bit of a boring kinda person who doesn't want high speeds. The highway experience was good either. Ronin can cruise comfortably at 80-85 kmph , anything above 90 gives a little bit tough time to the engine -7/10. City drives cannot be more comfortable - 10/10 on this. Rain is a little bit of pain in the back, like literally as the is a lot of mud bounces from the back and it would ruin the back of the pillion or rider. Tried finding a proper tire hugger but the position of the rear mudguard is very awkward to place any tire hugger.
    3 details about looks, performance, etc(8/10)- ronin's looks are very subjective, so I am giving just my opinion - I find it very handsome and dashing - the grey color looks fabulous on the beast and everything clicks -the front is work of marvel. It's beautiful and sexy to look at.
    Performance is quite good as well as expected the square engine produces distributed power at every gear quite nicely and you don't feel under-powered at any gear, even the fifth.

    E)engine is very smooth.

  • Allrounder bike with good millage and performance

    32 weeks ago


    Bipul Sarkar

    I have been riding this bike for more than one year. It is the perfect bike for those who travel daily, travel to hill areas with offroading, city rides,s and more. It is an all-rounder bike with satisfactory performance. I am getting 44 to 47 km mileage with 80 to 85 kmph speed riding. It's value for money.

  • The Ronin Cruise

    6 weeks ago


    Krishna Mohan

    It has a great sitting seat which makes it comfortable and also a short-height bike which makes it easy to control. By looks and performance, it's a decent bike. Service and maintenance is also easy. It has a decent refined engine. Its disadvantage is noticeable that is geared some notchy type and its mudguard design can also be made better.

  • A real Samurai- perfect for beginners and city ride

    1 year ago


    Aniruddha Thombare

    It's a beautiful bike that is powerful, strong looking yet not intimidating. As a first-time rider, it's easy to handle, control, and ride. The gear switching is smooth, the braking is near perfect giving you great pleasure and experience.
    As a beginner, I was simply confused between the Hunter and Ronin. Hunter is beautiful too, but the Ronin is a better one for beating the city traffic and occasional long drives.

  • A tamed beast- t-rex

    1 year ago


    Amit Upadhyaya

    1) buying experience(6/10) - I bought it in kolkata and the sales team were very active to pitch the product. However, I felt that post the payment they all left me alone to navigate and get the delivery of my bike. I am used to seeing big key handovers for bikes and all on Instagram and Facebook and however, nothing happened with me and I felt a little bit disappointed. Maybe it happened in that particular showroom of tvs and when asked how much petrol is there in the tank they mentioned sufficient enough to reach the nearest petrol pump and I was surprised as for a fuel injection machine a minimum of 3 liters needs to be in the tank and when asked for it they said: "petrol bahot mehenga hai" . So overall the room experience could have been better.
    2) riding experience (8/10):- my t-rex is very comfortable to ride with beautiful ergonomics and comfort at every rev. The shocker absorbs most of the bumps. However, if you are looking for excitement then the ronin is not for you. The Rev doesn't feel powerful the one you can feel on maybe honda cb300f (same price). It sure catches the eyes here and there. I am loving the experience as I am a little bit of a boring kinda person who doesn't want high speeds. The highway experience was good either. Ronin can cruise comfortably at 80-85 kmph , anything above 90 gives a little bit tough time to the engine -7/10. City drives cannot be more comfortable - 10/10 on this. Rain is a little bit of pain in the back, like literally as the is a lot of mud bounces from the back and it would ruin the back of the pillion or rider. Tried finding a proper tire hugger but the position of the rear mudguard is very awkward to place any tire hugger.
    3 details about looks, performance, etc(8/10)- ronin's looks are very subjective, so I am giving just my opinion - I find it very handsome and dashing - the grey color looks fabulous on the beast and everything clicks -the front is work of marvel. It's beautiful and sexy to look at.
    Performance is quite good as well as expected the square engine produces distributed power at every gear quite nicely and you don't feel under-powered at any gear, even the fifth. The torque and power may look less as compared to any other 200+ cc bike but to be very honest it was designed like this itself. Bluetooth connection is poorly made - just plain stupid - dte is inconsistent even if you are a consistent rider with 4000rpm and maintaining below 55kmph. Mileage ranged from 36-40 (36,40,38 before the first service and 38 after the first service). No engine heating issues were found. After the first service top speed was achieved with the pillion 115 kmph.
    4) service and maintenance(na) -service was quite fast and not sure what they did. Surely changed the air filter and mobil however I noticed they did not was my bike. Maybe I kept it clean that's why.
    5)pros -
    A) looks are beautiful
    B)seats are very comfortable for the rider
    C)shock absorbers are very good.
    D)high beam very good.
    E)engine is very smooth.
    F) front abs work amazingly.
    Cons-
    A)badly made right mirror which is just poorly designed.
    B)low beam light is not sufficient at all.
    C) mudguard is ineffective and spills water.
    D) training not given on new bike ronin to the engineers in the workshop.
    E)bad sales team.
    F) disc plates are cheap quality,
    G)rear brakes are just bad.
    Overall take your decision by yourself, I love the bike and plan to stick to it till T-rex doesn't give up my overall rating is 8/10. What about you?

  • Unscripted but....!

    41 weeks ago


    Shyam

    Disclaimer: Lengthy review
    My priorities (before getting the Ronin) were.
    Honda CB350
    TVS ronin
    Hunter 350
    I am a beginner rider, I am a five feet and eleven inches tall guy, I thought to go for these three as
    *Honda engine is something you can close your eyes and invest in & the fit and finish is too impeccable and
    * Second TVS, I believe they are genius (after Honda) when you compare the Engine refinement and reliability and then
    * Royal Enfield J-series platform with the 181Kg hunter is something I tried at first, but I find a bit confident less when I ride on speed breakers and more over the machine is something that I couldn't define itself to me (about its nature), hence hunter was my third priority.
    Since due to some constraints (beginner rider, cost, etc.), I preferred Ronin over others, if not, you could have seen my review on the CB350 page for sure.
    RONIN: I don't go deep into technicalities as you can see on the page itself, I write something that I felt!
    This is a serious cult with a better reliable engine and smooth as butter. It's just like having "ragi malt with onions", the gear shift is just like the crispiness of onion, and engine smoothness is just as smooth as the Ragi Malt, I couldn't get a better example than this. Just imagine how this combo works, the same way the Ronin works too.
    But, on the other side, manufacturing defects! on the first service, need to get rid of this! my bike it's turn indicator button problem, a fuel gauge sensor, and Bluetooth pairing issues.
    The buying experience is good. salespersons are quite efficient and kind. Such small gestures from them are pleasing to see.
    The riding experience is just like butter, smooth clutch action with a "springy" response and the engine makes me believe that it is good to handle different conditions.
    Visual is good as a cruiser (from the front) and scrambler on the rear side.
    My best suggestion is that,
    when planning on long rides, take out the stock mirrors, use bar end round mirrors or round mirrors on the handlebars,
    This mirror is something TVS needs to check on! visually it look's "odd/awkward"(subjective from person to person)!!... when disclosing it as a cruiser, it should have cruiser elements from the front, at the least!

    Tips for other riders

    This machine is beautiful. to ride treat it like a brother, not just a machine, i believe it gives you more fun that you expect! Before first service, just ride it peacefully for less that 60Kmph any roads because, at higher speeds you may not notice the defect, but you will look into defects when you ride slowly, I have found such defects in mine too. On the other side, check always for Tank-to-tank mileage, this is the best way to check for mileage. Ride 45-60Kmph for better mileage. Service the vehicle as per schedule, where the mileage may increase by 2-5 km/per liter after every service, so overall, you may get around 45-55Kmpl or more/less, after completion of all services. Note: Mileage variation on any services depend on the many factors, check those.

  • Worth buying unscripted if you are flexible around your scripted expectations slightly.

    1 year ago


    Santhosh Selvaraj

    The buying experience was very good and smooth. It gives a very smooth riding experience, the comfortable seats give pleasure in riding the bike even for long distances. This is actually a very nice dispute of small spoilers, it is a budget beast packed with full of options. It has outstanding pick-up since the torque is high but I'm disappointed with the top speed max which 120km by squeezing the bike, 110km with a lot of vibration, 100km with a very smooth experience. Life-saving brakes, but boiling engine (only in traffic). About the service I'm highly disappointed, I took it from them, they provide bad first service. Now I'm in hyderabad and couldn't find a well-authorised tvs service centre, I can only see tvs service centres with 1 or 2 ratings, and there is no option to find out who is the authorised service centre as well. Haven't explored the maintenance. Pros are design, option-packed cluster, comfortable ride, above-average performance, outstanding pickup, and sexy exhaust note. Cons are high speed, tvs turn by turn navigation, fewer options in colour variants, and low beam light. Please do not trust turn-by-turn navigation and get into trouble, it needs a lot of improvement.
