The maintenance cost is very low. This bike had never given trouble on the road from the day I purchased this. Bajaj had adopted new technology in india.

                  Ab tak ki sabse achi bike plus mileage deni wali bike or cng or petrol dono se chala sakte hai, best ye laga ki petrol or cng dono dala le do 330 km chala sakte hai dhoka abhi tak nhi mila iss bike se. Kafi comfortable bike hai to kafi achi mileage dene wali bike 400 me 330 km tak ka safar aram se kr sakte hai to petrol dalane ka koi tension nhi or kafi achi chalti hai highway pe bhi kafi comfortable rethi hai. Daily work jaise office daily ane jane wale logo ke liye middle class logo ke liye kahi achi rahegi or to or agar aap zomato Swiggy blinkit jaise jaghe pe kam karte hai to apke liye kafi achi rahegi bajat me.

                  Review after 8k kms usage
                  Baja. Freedom bio is ideal for long commute as it is fuel efficient, low maintenance and economical friendly. Dual fuel adds flexibility although slightly less powered but sufficient for travel without pillion and not much heavy luggage. Ridden 8000 plus kms ok pure CNG, less than 200kms used on petrol, I can say ride on CNG is reliable as Bajaj has been on CNG vehicles like in Auto rickshaw from decades. As said earlier it is slightly less powered but enough for single person travel. I would recommend as the bike itself is easy to ride although it is 148 kg but feels very lightweight while riding. With a great mileage of 90 plus on cng and may be 60 plus on petrol ( coz ridden vert less on petrol)

                  Good response from the customer
                  I bough this TVS raider in Jan 2026. Till now, i did not face any issues with it. This costs around 1.25 Lakhs including EMI. This can be a good commuter bike in 125cc bike models. E20 facility is also added in this bike. Handling is very good in this bike. I feel so comfortable when i ride on highways. I like rear foot support to provide comfort for pillion rider while having seat. Good mileage bike under 125cc bikes. This is kind of family bike with sporty look. City riding people can prefer this mostly. This is a best mileage bike under 1.25Lakhs. i would recommend to change the colour of ABS channel(red colour) to black.

                  This bike is a powerful bike. Having a 125 cc engine with a very good mileage. When you drive, you feel the pride. Ride of the bike towards mountain and hilly area are very good. Overall performance of the engine is very nice. Sound of the engine and exhaust is very good. Quick pickup and smooth ride is good.

                  TVS- RAIDER
                  I choose raider because one of my friend suggested me to buy as this bike is good nice looks and good mileage. The solo seat version of the bike is very good looking like similar to pulsar and it feels very light weight to ride this bike. The ride with the TVS raider was amazing till now, no breaking points were given by this bike, still rides the same smooth and the sound of the filter of this bike is best. The disc provided is also good, breaks tyres, engines, every thing is very good. I would like to recommend this bike to everyone other because of its looks, smooth rides, pretty good disc, nice colours, best engines, nice mileage and more than that the trust on TVS. They have been creating beats like this for very long now.

                  My experience with TVS Raider.
                  I wanted a bike with a decent mileage per litre because my work demands inter district commute. And after extensive search I found Raider. I wanted a bike that wasn't too boring for a mileage centred bike and this was my fair bet. Overall ride experience is satisfactory. Braking is bit off, that can be improved but if you're going in a decent speed, it shouldn't be a concern for you but if you're in a rush, it sure will affect you in one way or the other. But didn't have any bad experience till this day. Yeah, I'd recommend this bike but its safe, if you give it a test drive and make sure it's suited according to your needs. You should not feel bad after making the purchase in my opinion. But its a solid choice according to me.
