Pros & Cons
Pros:
- The bike offers segment-first features like multiple riding modes (Eco and Power) and a 5-inch TFT console in top variants. These features provide real-time data and connectivity that enhance the modern ownership experience at Vutto.
- The TVS Raider 125 bike mileage is a major strength, delivering approximately 50-52 kmpl in real-world city conditions. This performance provides low running costs for daily commuters across the NCR, making it a value for money investment.
- The 124.8cc air and oil-cooled engine delivers 11.38 PS of power smoothly. Vutto service reports highlight that the engine produces minimal vibrations even when pushed to 80 kmph, ensuring a comfortable ride for the user.
- With its signature LED DRLs and sharp tank shrouds, the bike stands out in parking lots. The build quality is robust, and Vutto quality checks show that the paint finish and switchgear durability are superior to many competitors in this price bracket.
Cons:
- The bike does not feature a dedicated engine kill switch, which is a standard expectation in modern motorcycles. Some Vutto customers find it slightly inconvenient to use the ignition key every time they stop at a long traffic signal.
- The base variants use a 100/90-17 rear tyre, which might feel less stable during aggressive cornering compared to bikes with wider tyres. While adequate for city use, enthusiast riders may find the grip levels modest on wet roads.
- The LED headlamp, while stylish, has a throw that some users find insufficient for poorly lit suburban roads at night. Riders living in areas with limited street lighting might require additional caution during night rides.
