                  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.

                  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.

                  एक्सीलेंट एक बढ़िया सुझाव
                  लंबे रास्ते के लिए कम्फर्ट और कम कीमत पर इतना अच्छा विकल्प हैं २००km से १५० km रोज ही चलता हूँ, स्पीड भी अच्छी है इसे पहले हीरो की बाइक भी चलाता था शाइन, शरीर थक जाता था लेकिन अब लगता ही नहीं है कभी थकान होती है, पर इसमें थोड़े और सेफ्टी फीचर जोड़ देना चाहिए़ लोकेशन और यूएसबी ब्लूटूथ जैसे लुक तो बहुत ही अच्छा है कलर भी पांच मिल जाते है पर हरा सबसे अच्छा लगता है.

                  Hello iam Aabid Hassan from Baramulla
                  I chose the bike because it was pocket friendly for me and full filled the criteria that i was looking for further the service stations were easily accessible for me. For the road conditions that i usually ride on its lightweight and smooth handling provided me a comfort which was better then other bikes of the segment. The ride was very good and comforting. I have been to a long ride around 200 kilometres away from my home to Sonmarg where for a long time the road was smooth but after I crossed Srinagar the road became bumpy but thanks to my bike the back pain came no where near which I had earlier experienced on my hero honda cbz. Yes absolutely. This bike is very good easily manageable in tragic which I usually ride in and if the road gets a bit off road it can carry you to your destination easily and safely. It's shockers are very good especially on the roads which are under construction.

                  Ideal for Daily Use
                  I wanted a dependable city bike with low running costs. Researching online and visiting showrooms, Star City Plus stood out for its fuel efficiency and ease of handling. The final decision was easy after a short test ride. Star City Plus is simple and practical. I can easily manage traffic and city roads, and the seat is comfortable. Mileage is impressive. It’s decent on highways, not very fast. Service staff are polite and responsive. I use the Star City Plus for daily office rides. It’s very comfortable and handles city traffic smoothly. Mileage is excellent, though top speed is moderate. On highways, it feels stable. After-sales service has been prompt whenever I needed support.
