      Honest review without lies. Tried and tested 15yrs
      It was a good experience, purchased from bajaj showroom. Wonderful riding experience. Still in a condition to ride more. Has never made me push the bike mid highway. No accident just one person riding with care. Current average is around 22-25. Service is been local, however parts update has been original.

      Bajaj Pulsar 180 cc (2017 Model)
      Good balanced bike for a First purchase. It has the required power and quick manoeuvres for a city ride. Mileage is around 38-45, depending on the traffic and road condition. Headlight was a little weak, so replaced with a stronger power headlight. The overall experience has been good with this bike.

      mileage and speed
      This bike gives an average mileage of 32-33. The reason for the low mileage is due to the double ignition system, but very good performance. The pickup and speed are also too good. The looks are also good.

      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.
