                  Bike is best for city riding but gets little aching for longer rides, above 70kmpl significant vibrations can be felt everything else is very good including mileage, maintainance, features, screen, maneourability, power, pickup etc i have tried this bike in almost all terrains and I am satisfied with whatever they are providing at this price point.

                  TVS RAIDER Was Fantastic
                  I loved this bike and its mileage is surprisingly amazing. Disk brakes are too affective in such a small distance or emergency. Looks wise TVS Raider is too awesome. Features are also good. Calls monitoring, gps, eco performance, boost modes are fantastic.

                  last 4 years of riding rapido with long rides and how good it Handels .
                  It's been 4 years now I have been riding tvs raider, purchased it from susheel motors Kukatpally. I have already completed around 45000 km approx and completed 1500 km ride from Hyderabad to west bengal in 32 hours with minimum break time, it didn't gave any issue like engine heating and didn't gave any trouble, worth buying. Service was good. no delay in service and coustomer support is good.
