This along with the handling makes it a great bike for daily use. As for highway performance, the TVS Raider can cruise at 80-90kmph, but there’s a bit of vibration from 65kmph, but it's not too bothersome.

- Review after 1 year.I have been riding the Raider for a year now. It's comfortable and the performance is great for 125cc. Can be a little uncomfortable for the pillion for long rides. Otherwise probably the best bike in its segment. The power mode actually does show difference in power and I usually ride the bike roughly yet it handles the city bumps very well. It does tend to vibrate a little when driven over 80 but the mileage is very good compared to the power output.Read MoreWas this review helpful?
