After several teasers and speculation, TVS has finally launched the much-awaited Ronin, in India. Let’s have a closer look at TVS’ first neo-retro scrambler style motorcycle:
The TVS Ronin’s round headlight, tear-drop shaped fuel tank, single-piece saddle, and side-slung exhaust enhance its retro look, bits like all-LED lighting and digital instrument cluster with Bluetooth connectivity give the bike modern touches.
At the heart of the Ronin is a 225.9cc air-oil-cooled, single-cylinder engine producing 20.40PS and 19.93Nm. That makes it 0.42PS less, but 2.68Nm more than the TVS Apache RTR 200 4V. The engine is paired to a five-speed gearbox along with an assist and slipper clutch. TVS claims that the bike can do a top speed of 120kmph.
Underpinnings on the neo-retro motorcycle include a 41mm Showa Big Piston USD fork and a monoshock, with discs on both ends for braking. It comes with the safety net of dual channel ABS (on the higher variant) with two modes for the same: Urban and Rain. The Motorcycle rolls on 17 inch alloy wheels with TVS Remora block pattern tyres. You get a 110-section at the front and 130-section at the rear. The kerb weight of the single-channel ABS variants is 159kg while the dual-channel variants tip the scale at 160kg.
Along with the impressive hardware, the Ronin comes loaded to the T with goodies. You get a fully digital offset circular instrument cluster with TVS SmartXonnect and Bluetooth connectivity. It shows you notifications and facilitates accepting or rejecting calls.
Along with all that, you also have turn-by-turn navigation, voice and ride assist and a USB charger. The ride assist alerts you for lowered side stand, turn signal, phone battery and low fuel.
Prices for the Ronin start at Rs 1,49,000 and Rs 1,56,500 for the single tone variant and dual-tone variant respectively (both getting single-channel ABS). The top-of-the-line dual-channel ABS, dual-tone variant retails at Rs 1,68,750 (all prices ex-showroom Delhi).
