With a new triple-tone colour scheme on TVS Ronin TD Special Edition, this stylish motorcycle dives into the festivities
Born to bridge the gap between roadster, cruiser and scrambler motorcycle segments, TVS Ronin is one of the more interesting vehicles in quarter-liter class. The primary rival for Ronin is Royal Enfield Hunter 350. For the festive season, TVS Ronin wears a new Special Edition avatar, sold with top-spec TD trim only and costs Rs. 1.73 lakh (ex-sh).
TVS Ronin TD Special Edition
TVS Ronin is powered by a 225.9cc engine that generates 20.4 PS of max power at 7,750 rpm and 19.93 Nm of peak torque at 3,750 rpm. It is mated to a 5-speed gearbox and a slip-and-assist clutch. The bike has USD forks at front and a mono-shock unit at rear with a 7-step adjustable preload.
While SS and DS variants have single-channel ABS, Ronin TD has dual-channel ABS. Special Edition is only on offer with top-spec TD trim. The main highlight of TVS Ronin TD Special Edition is its new triple-tone colour scheme called Nimbus Grey. Along with that, TVS is bundling a few add-ons that were part of Ronin’s extensive range of accessories.
Starting with Nimbus Grey triple-tone colour scheme, it does stand out from other standard shades. The primary base coat is close to Nardo Grey, complemented by larger White stripes and smaller Red stripes. Combined, these colours form a triple-tone effect.
Not just that, Special Edition brings TVS Ronin branding on wheels, a blacked-out headlight bezel, and a completely blacked-out engine bay and componentry in lower half of this motorcycle. Accessories like a USB phone charger, a decently tall windscreen and an FI cover are standard with TVS Ronin TD Special Edition.
