Planning a Ladakh Bike Trip? Here’s Why You Should Consider the TVS Raider 125


Looking for a reliable, fuel-efficient and powerful bike for your Ladakh trip? There are many options to consider, most of them obvious, and then there are some which tend to go under the radar. TVS Raider 125 is the archetype of the latter and stands out as the most fuel-efficient, capable and reliable two-wheeler that can ace the Ladakh bike trip.

Let’s take a closer look at how TVS Raider fits this bill.

Performance to Boot

Powering the TVS Raider 125 is a tried and tested 125cc, three-valve, single-cylinder engine that develops 8.37KW of peak power and 11.2 Nm of peak torque, mated to a 5-speed gearbox. The engine is tuned to deliver punchy performance throughout the rev range. And with the newly launched TVS Raider 125 iGO now in the fray, you have additional torque on standby which can be accessed by the raise of throttle.

Design and Ergonomics to Match

TVS Raider has a low kerb weight of just 123 kg along with excellent riding dynamics and an impressive power-to-weight ratio. As you sit, you get a neutral foot peg and comfortable handlebar position. The seat comes with thick padding to ensure the ride remains comfortable while travelling long distances.

The fuel tank of Raider 125 is well-chiselled with a sharp character and a dual-tone paint job. The fuel tank also offers grip for the legs so that you have better control of the bike. This can be extremely crucial while passing through diverse terrain on your Ladakh bike trip.

Ride and Handling

Apart from superior performance, ride and handling too are strong departments of the TVS Raider. The bike gets 100/90 17” tyres that offer superior grip even while the bike is leaning hard.

The suspension setup is on the softer ride, yet still offers the required stiffness at high speeds. In other words, the bike strikes the perfect balance between sportiness and a comfortable ride and handling. This is a big reason to consider the TVS Raider 125 as your steed on a bike trip to Ladakh.

Smart and Fuel-Efficient

A 10-litre fuel tank with a fuel-efficient engine and a console featuring DTE (Distance-to-Empty) ensures you are never low on fuel and with iGO tech an additional 10% fuel efficiency. The console also features SmartXonenct integration offering a range of connected features. With the on-road price of TVS Raider 125 starting around 1 lakh INR, this bike is among the most affordable and capable performance commuters for a Ladakh bike trip.
