Latest Updates on Ronin

TVS has unveiled the 2025 version of the Ronin's DS variant at TVS MotoSoul 2024. Check out the details here. The updated variant has two new colour schemes and dual-channel ABS.

Expert's Opinion on Ronin

Overview

Modern Cruiser

• The Ronin is TVS’s neo-retro styled motorcycle which combines the looks of a scrambler, roadster and a cruiser
• It is powered by an engine that has been derived from the TVS Apache RTR 200
• Is available in 5 variants and 7 colours

Design

All-in-One

• The Ronin blends design cues from various genres
• It features a raked-out front, and forward-set footpegs, similar to a cruiser, while the beefy fuel tank offers roadster-like traits
• The block-pattern tires and high-set rear fender give it a scrambler vibe.
• The build quality is solid, and the bike feels robust
• The design feels mismatched in places, with the frame’s headstock and side panels looking somewhat awkward.
• The bike's overall aesthetic may not appeal to those seeking a more cohesive design

Performance & Mileage

Tractable and Smooth

• Powered by a 225.9cc air/oil-cooled single-cylinder engine, it delivers 20.4PS and 19.93Nm, making it ideal for urban commuting
• The engine offers impressive tractability, allowing smooth slow-speed manoeuvres even in higher gears
• TVS’ Glide-Through-Tech enables throttle-free riding in traffic just by modulating the clutch
• You can easily ride at city speeds in 3rd gear. But above 55kmph in 3rd, the vibrations get a bit prominent
• On highways, the Ronin starts to struggle at higher speeds, with vibrations creeping in above 80kmph
• The bike lacks top-end performance, limiting its potential for long-distance cruising compared to models like the Apache RTR 200 4V

Handling

Quick-footed

• Despite its relaxed rake angle, the Ronin remains agile, thanks to its wide handlebar and manageable 160kg kerb weight
• The bike is easy to manoeuvre in the city due to its low seat height
• The block-pattern tyres provide good grip, even when cornering at higher speeds, enhancing confidence on twisty roads
• Braking performance could be better, with the lever feeling spongy and lacking proper feedback during hard braking situations

Ride Quality

Well-tuned

• The upright riding posture adds to rider comfort, while the bike’s suspension is well-tuned for city use, absorbing bumps and rough roads
• The bike handles rough terrain with ease, while still offering stability at higher speeds

Comfort & Storage

Like a Cruiser

• Low seat allows shorter rides to get their feet down easily
• Comfortable and upright riding posture
• Forward set footpegs and handlebar gives it an almost cruiser-like riding position
• Features, like a heel-toe shifter, could make longer rides even more comfortable
• The forward-set footpeg position can feel awkward for taller riders, especially when manoeuvring in tight spaces

Features

Feature-packed

• The Ronin features a compact LCD screen with smartphone connectivity through TVS SmartXonnect, available on the higher-end TD variant
• The TVS SmartXonnect allows access to features such as call and SMS alerts, navigation, and phone battery status
• The silent starter operates smoothly, adding convenience, while the engine kill switch is a useful safety addition
• The small LCD screen tends to be cluttered with information, making it difficult to read while riding

Verdict

Is the TVS Ronin worth it?

• The TVS Ronin is a well-equipped, urban-centric bike that excels in city commuting with its strong low-end torque and impressive manoeuvrability
• Lacks top-end performance and the mixed-bag design might not appeal to everyone
• Priced higher than other TVS models, such as the Apache RTR 160 4V and the NTorq 125, the Ronin leaves room for improvement, particularly in terms of refinement and long-distance comfort
• If utility and urban riding are your top priorities, the Ronin is a solid choice, but it may fall short for those seeking a ‘special’ riding experience

Key Things to Know about Ronin

Upside

• Torquey engine ensures you don’t have to shift as frequently
• Excellent fit and finish
• Lightweight and agile in both city traffic and highway
• Can easily accommodate tall riders

Downside

• Unimpressive highway performance
• You’ll need to pull the front brake lever really hard for aggressive braking

Expert's Conclusion

The confusing styling aside, the Ronin is still a peppy and friendly motorcycle that is good for everyday commutes. The engineering finesse and build quality is decent but the styling and top-end engine performance isn’t. The Ronin also comes off as a bit expensive for a bike that is primarily meant to be a city commuter.
