Trending Questions on TVS Ronin - Answered by Autocar Experts

E
Asked by: E Praneethon Jan 8, 2026

I bought a Honda SP in August 2024 and have ridden it for around 5,800km. However, I am not satisfied with its power and pickup, especially compared to my older CB Shine, which I still there. While purchasing the SP, I had considered the TVS Raider, Royal Enfield Hunter 350, Yamaha FZ and TVS Ronin. However, I selected the wrong model, and now I want to buy the Hunter 350 or TVS Raider or Yamaha FZ. I am now looking for a bike that offers better looks, power, pickup and road presence, and am confused between the Hunter and the other options, as Hunter offers more status. I am also considering selling my current bike, which is in mint condition with all free services completed. Please advise on the best course of action and what would be a reasonable resale price.

Since you have mentioned you want more performance than your current bike, you should look at the Royal Enfield Hunter 350 and TVS Ronin, as the Yamaha FZ will only offer you a very small step up in terms of sheer speed, although it will offer you vastly more fuel efficiency in the process.
Take a test ride of the Hunter and Ronin before you decide to go ahead with your purchase.
Coming to what price you should sell your bike for, there are a lot of regional factors that come into play, as well as the market rate of your machine. We would recommend speaking to a pre-owned bike dealer in addition to putting some feelers out in the market in your individual capacity to get an accurate picture.

Asked by: AJRTHon Jan 7, 2026

I previously owned a Hero Karizma R and later switched to a Honda Shine 125. I am now considering buying a cruiser-style motorcycle. I am 5’4” tall, and my riding is mostly bumper-to-bumper city traffic. Please suggest suitable options that I should test ride.

Since you have mentioned you want a cruiser style bike to ride in the city and keeping your stature in mind, your choices boil down to the Royal Enfield Meteor 350 and its sibling, the Goan Classic 350.
Both of these Royal Enfield bikes have low seat heights, which should help you plant your feet on the ground and aid confidence when negotiating stop-and-go traffic. Do bear in mind that these bikes with their feet forward and relaxed riding positions will put a lot of weight on your tailbone and transfer road bumps to your spine, so its worth taking a test ride to see whether or not you can live with this sort of position daily.
If you want a lighter bike, then the TVS Ronin is a good option, although its seat height is a fair deal taller than the two RE 350s. Provided you have the confidence to manage a bike on your tiptoes, you can consider the TVS bike.

Asked by: SACHIN Yon Jan 7, 2026

I am looking for a lightweight motorcycle under a Rs 2 lakh budget for short weekend rides to nearby destinations. I like the Yamaha XSR155. Is it suitable for two riders in terms of rear seat comfort, or should I consider other options?

The Yamaha XSR155 has many strengths, like great fuel efficiency, engaging handling and performance from its R15-derived underpinnings and its clean, neo-retro design. However, its stiff suspension will be far from ideal over bad patches of road, resulting in discomfort for your back. It is also a rather small bike physically, which means two-up riding won't be comfortable for long durations, unless you are both smaller people.
Therefore, we would advise you to look at alternatives like the TVS Ronin or Royal Enfield Hunter 350, both of which are more spacious and have better suspension comfort than the XSR. A test ride of both two-up should help you decide which is best for you.

Asked by: Ra naon Jan 5, 2026

I’m 5′ 5″, aged 47. I owned a Splendor for 10 years and a Honda Twister for 10 years and sold both. For the past 8 years I have been riding a TVS Scooty. I am planning to buy a bike under ₹2 lakh. I prefer long rides over city commutes and plan to do a lot of interstate travel. My requirements are comfortable ergonomics that are easy on my spine, reliability, light weight, and decent mileage. Please suggest.

Consider your usage and budget, bikes like the TVS Ronin and Royal Enfield Hunter 350 will be options we recommend you take a look at. Both are smooth and comfortable machines with neutral riders' triangles, which will be conducive to long stints in the saddle. 

You can even take a look at the Hero Xpulse 210 if you want a dual-purpose machine. It will be the most comfortable and capable of the three bikes we've suggested here. 

However, it is also the tallest, so if you are a shorter rider who isn't comfortable with tall bikes, then this may not be the best bet for you. 

Take a test ride of everything you shortlist before you make a decision.

Asked by: Pearlsamy Jenaon Jan 4, 2026

I have been riding scooters for a long time and want to shift to a bike, but I don’t have much experience with geared motorcycles. I stay in a hilly area, so I need something with good power and strong brakes (it rains a lot here). I also want good pillion comfort for my wife. My average running per month is around 400 km, with occasional drives under 100 km. My budget can be stretched to ₹2.5 lakh. Thanks a ton.

Considering your usage and budget, you can look at bikes like the Royal Enfield Hunter / Bullet / Classic 350, Honda CB350 trio, TVS Ronin and the Hero Xpulse 210. All have spacious seats, comfortable suspension and have decent braking performance too. A test ride of all these machines with your wife sitting behind you will help you decide which is the right fit for you. 

Do bear in mind that making the switch from a scooter to a motorcycle will need good hand and foot coordination to operate the clutch and gear pedal.  We recommend you practice on a used bike first before taking the plunge.

Asked by: Aparajito Autocar Sethon Jan 4, 2026

I am 37 yrs old, with a serious back pain issue from slipped discs. Due to my job compulsion i need to commute 70 kms daily (30 km highway, 40 km city)on bike. While my old Unicorn is doing okay, i want to get a bike which has the most comfortable ride with least jerking (keeping my back pain in mind). I had earlier found the bullet classic 350 and avenger 220 to be mildly comfortable rides. Budget is not a constraint.

If you want to stay in the same displacement range as your Unicorn, you can look at the Bajaj Pulsar N160 and the TVS Apache RTR 160 4V. Both have great suspension, peppy performance and will return similar fuel economy to your Unicorn. 

If you want to make a step up, then bikes like the Royal Enfield Hunter / Bullet / Classic 350, TVS Ronin, and Honda CB350 trio will make for good commuting partners. These are bikes with upright, neutral ergonomics, plush suspension setups and torquey, smooth engines. Expect lower fuel economy in comparison to your Unicorn, however, by virtue of its larger displacement.

Lastly, the Hero Xpulse 210 is a wonderful do-it-all machine which will have the best suspension comfort of all the bikes listed here.

A test ride of all of these bikes will help you determine which one is best for you.

Asked by: Pearlsamy Jenaon Jan 1, 2026

My average monthly distance is 400 km and I stay in a hilly area. I’m thinking of buying a bike with a budget of around ₹2–2.5 lakh. I need something with enough power to handle the ghats, good pillion comfort, suitable for long journeys, and capable in the rains. Thanks.

Considering your requirements, bikes such as the TVS Ronin, Honda CB300F, CB350 trio, Royal Enfield 350s, and Hero Xpulse 210 will serve you well. All are reasonably powerful bikes that can handle the weight of two-up riding and keep your passenger comfortable. 

A test ride of all these machines with your preferred passenger will help you make an informed decision.

Asked by: Anurag Mishraon Dec 30, 2025

I want to buy a bike mainly for city use (around 90%). My budget is under ₹3 lakh. I am looking for a good-looking bike with a comfortable suspension. Please advise.

Within your budget, bikes like the TVS Ronin, Royal Enfield Hunter/Bullet/Classic, Triumph Speed 400, Harley-Davidson X440, as well as the Honda CB350 models, will make for a good fit in the neo-retro roadster segment. If you want something that's a little more rugged, then ADV bikes like the TVS Apache RTX 300, Hero Xpulse 210, and KTM 250 Adventure deserve your attention. 
A test ride of all these should help you decide which is the best option for your usage as well as your physique.

I am a college student planning to buy my first bike. I want a reliable retro-looking bike with low maintenance, good performance, decent mileage, and easy manoeuvrability for city use, along with the ability to do an occasional long tour once every 2 to 3 years. I have booked the Hunter 350 (Graphite Grey), but I am now confused due to alternatives like the TVS Ronin, Yamaha XSR, and others.

As a first bike, the Royal Enfield Hunter 350 that you have booked will fit the bill well enough for your needs. This Royal Enfield bike is an approachable, easygoing, comfortable and decently reliable and fuel-efficient machine.
Other options which you have shortlisted, like the TVS Ronin and Yamaha XSR155, are also great bikes, but the Ronin's design isn't universally appreciated, and the Yamaha's suspension can feel a little stiff over bad patches of road.
If you want more performance, take a look at the Triumph Speed 400, as that bike has a 400cc engine making 40hp and will be a good first bike too. Take a test ride of everything you shortlist before you make a decision.

Which is better for daily commuting and occasional long trips, the TVS Ronin or the Royal Enfield Hunter 350?

Both the TVS Ronin and Hunter 350 are motorcycles that can handle city and highway duties quite well. Choosing between the two will boil down to which one's looks and riding experience you prefer.
The Royal Enfield Hunter 350 has a more relaxed riding experience due to its soulful 349cc, single-cylinder engine and heavier weight. The Ronin is slightly more eager - but it's not sporty - with its lighter weight and peppy engine. Take a test ride of both to see which one suits you best before making a decision.
