What do you think about the all-new TVS Ronin 225? Will you buy it over the Royal Enfield Hunter 350? Do let us know your thoughts in the comments below.
As TVS isn't on the european markets, i would only have the option to buy the RE. But i do have a bike that was available in India and in Europe. A 2014 Honda CBR 300R
Big No to Ronin TVS is lame to ride. Buy Hunter and sell it to scrap dealer after few years Both bike not convinced me, instead of investing in these bikes i don't mind to spend some extra bucks on Highness
Its been one Month since i got My ronin (Top end grey varient as in the video), and its soo cool and awsome this is my first bike and i dont have too many riding experiences of different bikes. But all my friends liked my bike especially the looks and exhaust note is soo Badass. You should hear the bike in Underground Parking lots or Garage its just pure monster of a sound. And I agree with all the points even the bad ones but they are not reason to skip an awsome and cool looking bike. Hopefully others too like the bike as i do. And im kind of glad its better Hunter in many ways😜.
Ronin is not a confused bike, it just picked some useful features from different categories and created its own. Which is not bad. All bike categories were created some time in history so as this one. Accept is the way it is. Obviously the buying decision is personal.
Booked Ronin only for handling city traffic. In bangalore its not possible to drive above 60 except in nights... in heavy traffic driving 160kg bike with gtt technology and bike with good suspension will make your drive peacefully.
Now this is the reason Bajaj Avenger is still up for sale even without any major facelifts for so many years now. Because it has no competition. And competition is what compels brands to make their product better.
@@BikeWaleOfficial compared to hunter, the easiness of riding in city, traffic, Slipper clutch, gtt, less gear shifting (good low end torque), best ground clearance, low maintenance cost, fully digital instrument cluster & its loaded features, more mileage (40-45)

Good video, but please tell your video editor that he has to do a better job with the sound levels. Your speech is quiet so you turn up the volume and then it goes into a full blast rock n roll background music and you have to lower the volume. Then once you start talking again you have to repeat the process
I would like ronnin over hunter..it's have cool design from front and side as well. It's back design I don't like personally but it can be overcomed by the feature it have.back Mud guard can also be changed later..
Only thing it lacks is good looks, cuz this is a wired looking bike. The concept Zeppelin looks so good that its kinda sad to see it turned into this...
If they released the Zeppelin at least mostly as it was in the concept stage, Hunter would not have even come close. This would have been the trophy winner in this segment for this year!
Either sync the volume levels of voice and that crazy loud music or increase the volume of voices so we keep overall down for our device, or take down the music levels so we keep high volume and still be comfortable. What’s this poor UX audiometry

Thank you for the feedback. We will definitely improve on the background music. As for your other requirement, we’d suggest you to go for any of the following bikes. Apache RTR 160/200 4V Pulsar N160/250 TVS Ronin RE Hunter 350 (if weight isn’t an issue)
I am buying my 1st bike. My height is about 5'8 and weight is around 55-60. I will be riding bike in city mostly in moderate to heavy traffic. Confused between ronin, hness 350 and jawa 42. Which bike should I buy. P.S. my age is 22
Hello I have just purchased the base model on the 8 th August bike The performance is very good but now I have a face problem It heats up after Stop the bike self not working I have to wait then it will start why this problem occur every time.
I haven’t watched the video yet but this is my experience. Went to test ride it at a very well known dealer in Bangalore. They told me they thr bike was damaged due to a fall when it was on test ride. They showed me new bike (lower end model) in their warehouse . When I asked when I can get test ride they told they as it’s a new bike the spares are not ready and it will take time to get things sorted and the spare bike is not available . They asked me to come after 2-3 weeks for test ride. Katham Khalsa Thankyou TVS
@@hiteshadhikari I agree and won’t deny that. But the situation is not confidence inspiring for customers. It’s not a new version of existing customer and we are not taking about accessories we are taking about spares. If someone had taken bike in first batch and met with accident and asked to wait for a month then imagine his frustration after having invested 2L on a bike.
@@sierralimaa thats one reason why u dont buy a brand new bike Other major reason is for first 3 to 6 months of production, there are slight qc issues ( irrespective of company) This is because the line has to stabalise production & standardisation of processes and parts is done in meantime
They have very limited showrooms with good service.. The others are bunch of jokers.. If you want test drive you can reach out to Bharath TVS Jayanagar 2nd block..
The things that would have made Ronin much better.. 1) weight: 167 kgs.. the slightly more weight would have been better for highway without compromising city ride quality 2) power: 22 ps.. a little more ps would have increased its top speed 3) torque: 24 ps.. a little more torque would have been better for the city and you wouldn't have to shift gears a lot 4) rear tyre: 140 sections at least.. TVS sucks at this (same with Apache series) and I don't know what problem TVS has with wider and fatter tyres.. they are better for handling and would have helped in highway a little bit more 5) cruise speed: 110 kmph cruising speed would have been better All in all, Ronin looks more powerful than it really is. I mean for a 225 cc, the power and torque of 20 PS and 20nm is weak and the top speed of 120 is even weaker.. 150 cc bikes can cross those speeds. It looks heavier and highway ready but it's actually underprepared.. a mileage of 42 - 45 is good but if I am buying a 225 cc bike that costs 2 lakhs then I could have lived with 35 -38 kmpl.
With instincts? Hunter. With using your pre-frontal cortex (something that no other creature has on this planet): Ronin I know other creatures have pre-frontal cortex but it's not as developed as ours
Thanks for this awesome video, I'm planning to buy the Ronin but can't understand whats the difference in the 3 variants that they are offering. Can you guide me which variant would be the best value for money?
From what i understand the base varient would be the best value. The only difference with top varient is color scheme, dual channel abs and Bluetooth connectivity. Functionally nothing different
Honestly speaking if you don't like ronin...its ok but please don't go after hunter it is a awful product very less mileage, low ground clearance, no road presence, no feel in riding Although if you want purchase RE than please go for any other motorcycle like buller, meteor but hunter is waste product
All royal enfields from 2017 have problems with electrical wires. Bikes costing 2,00,000 have faulty wires , they fail after 2 or 3 years. Get a life royal enfield.... Please dont buy RE!!
If your city have proper TVS service center (above 150cc bike) then go otherwise dont go for it after 4 5 years unka disc pad bhi 1 month ke waiting pe milta he🤣🤣🤣 Experience bolta he bhidu Complete 15 days pahle order krna padta he dics pad tab milta he
Yes that's the major issue of TVS worldwide. Their distributors worldwide never seem to stock spare parts! It's fun riding the bike till things go well. But as soon as you need a spare part then cross your fingers until God helps you!
The one major problem with TVS is , There resale value is very less , secondly there engine is not reliable, after 3-4 year use or after 50k km lots of noise and vibration from engine .

I think TVS referred so e styling of Norton motorcycles for creating Ronin
@@sathiamitthranr7767 May be you are right. I have taken a test ride of Ronin. It is simply amazing.
yes but when you do that to design something it's basically a Frankenstein, too odd looking
@@kaidi_p Odd looking may be right because this is based on personal preference.
Everything is easy to move around when you are 6.2 and regular with gym😅

Riding at 90 km per hour if you cannot reach you destination on time, you probably should leave your home earlier
😅😅😂
man the exhaust note is legendary,
you just need to take the test drive and drive the bike for 3 km atleast ,
rev it .
Yes, the exhaust note is good indeed.
Already owned Ronin for many reasons over hunter 🔥
We’d like to hear the reasons.

subjective
We are on the same page when it comes to looks. It’s a confused product.
Yes.
It went from Modern Cruiser (Zeppelin) to Retro commuter (Ronin). It’s a major disappointment.
It is definitely a total disappointment there.. I do not understand who likes this look without many reservations.
If they released the Zeppelin at least mostly as it was in the concept stage, Hunter would not have even come close. This would have been the trophy winner in this segment for this year!
You could have used an acid rock number for your background music! Because the existent background music is so soft to the ears!
9:23 210 510 kmph?
I am planning to buy this bike. The only concern is that my height is 5.11 Ft and weight 85kg. will I look too big on this bike?
Did you buy.. what's the experience
Like apparels, bike manufactures too must make bikes according to rider heights with sizes Short, Medium, and Tall.
And who will pay for the added R&D costs?
@@BikeWaleOfficial who pays anyways?
Are customers for bikes or bikes for customers?
@@saaamaak well said broh

You should go for the Ronin. It's cheaper, feature laden, beautiful and will serve your needs.

When bikes come new, for a month or 2 spares are not delivered as most are being consumed by production, its standard

For a 50km daily ride, can this bike keep me fresh like driving a car. I ride gixxer 155 and end of my day, feel tired. Can it be better ?
I know it's a tough question to answer
But just with instincts what's better hunter 350 or ronin
With instincts? Hunter. With using your pre-frontal cortex (something that no other creature has on this planet): Ronin
I know other creatures have pre-frontal cortex but it's not as developed as ours
I hope it is coming to Europe, more interesting than the RE Hunter. Please send one over to Belgium.
I guess I'm ok with 95kmph cruising with a bike..i have car if needed more speed
