Variant Recommendation

author

The Raider now comes in an additional iGO variant. which comes in at a lesser price than the SX variant, and offers a similar set of features. With the iGO micro hybrid tech, the torque also goes up marginally. With a balance of features, tech, slightly better performance and efficiency, the iGO variant becomes the one to recommend.

Pros & Cons of TVS Raider 125

  • What we admire in this bike

    • Modern design looks very appealing
    • Seating comfort & riding position are very comfortable
    • Most feature-rich bike in its segment
    • Smooth engine with slick gearbox
    • Handling & ride is very comfortable
  • What could have been better

    • Front disc brake lever requires effort for good response
    • SmartXonnect features lag & hang at times
    • Top variant is pricey

Should I buy the Raider 125?

The TVS Raider 125 is made for premium city commute buyers. It has a very young & aggressive design that makes it stand apart from its rivals. It is also the most feature-loaded bike in the segment with technology like LED lights, riding modes, TFT digital screen, engine start/stop, & Bluetooth connectivity. Its engine is also very smooth to operate & the easy handling helps in day-to-day traffic riding. We recommend it to buyers who want a modern 125cc bike that has a reliable & fuel-efficient engine.

Design, Features, & Riding Position 8
  • The design & outlook of the Raider 125 is its strongest point. It looks very good on the road, especially in bright colours. The overall appeal of its design is for young buyers who want a modern bike with the latest features. We love the X-shaped LED DRLs at the front. Also, the LED taillight looks good in the dark. The quality of the materials used is also typical TVS; meaning it is very good and rich in texture. The fit & finish of the panels is very neat on the Raider 125.
  • The features list on the Raider 125 is very long. TVS has ensured to equip the Raider with all features that make it segment-best in this category. It has LED lights, a digital instrument console, riding modes, Bluetooth phone connectivity, a USB phone charging socket, an aluminium brake & clutch levers, etc. All of these features are useful to the rider on the go.
  • The most important part of a commuter bike is the riding comfort & position. The Raider 125 has a semi-aggressive position. The handlebar is tilted towards the rider, the split seats (on the top variant) offer very good cushioning, & the footpegs for the rider are set a bit towards the rear. Thus, the sporty character is evident in it while riding. But, it is not uncomfortable by any means. However, if you compare it with rivals like Honda Shine, the Raider 125 feels sporty to ride.

    One of the primary rivals of the Raider 125 is the Honda SP 125. The Honda SP 125 has a good brand value because of its better reliability. Also, the superb engine refinement, fuel economy, & comfortable suspension of SP 125 make it a good value-for-money bike. The Raider 125, on the other hand, offers an aggressive design with the latest technology. Performance-wise, the Honda Shine is a better bike but the Raider 125 looks better on the road. Out of the two, we recommend the Honda Shine for its butter-smooth performance.

    TVS Raider 125 also competes with the Bajaj Pulsar NS125. The NS125 looks and feels fast to ride. The design of the NS125 resembles the bigger NS bikes. Also, the widespread network of Bajaj’s service centres is helpful. The red-line performance of NS125 is very good. If you’re looking for a fast bike in the 125cc segment, the Bajaj Pulsar NS125 solves the purpose. But, the NS125 is not as comfortable as the Raider 125. Also, the build quality of Raider 125 is better.

    The Hero Glamour Xtec is another major rival to the TVS Raider 125. The Glamour Xtec offers a very reliable engine performance along with good fuel economy. Also, the Xtec-connected features make it modern enough to compete with the Raider 125. Hero’s widespread service network & good resale value make Glamour Xtec a better choice. But, if you want a different product with good top-end performance, the Raider 125 makes sense to buy.

      I don’t have much to say—just that I absolutely love the TVS Raider 125. This bike has stood by me even in moments when I had no hope. It has proven its reliability time and again. In the 125cc segment, it’s truly the best. A bike that’s more than just a ride—it’s a companion.

    Latest On TVS Raider 125

    Last Updated on 22th Feb'25: The TVS Raider 125 remains a popular choice for an entry-level commuter motorcycle. Its sporty looks and impressive features continue to appeal to buyers. Currently, the Raider 125 is available without any recent updates, both in terms of mechanical or feature-wise.

    TVS added a new variant to the Raider 125 lineup, called the Raider iGO. This is essentially the micro-hybrid tech from the new Jupiter that has made its way here, which provides a small boost to the 125cc engine. The Raider produces 11.75Nm of torque with iGO Assist, which is 0.5Nm more than the regular Raider.
