TVS NTORQ 125 Long Term Review: May 2018

TVS NTORQ 125 May 2018

I used to think that a motorcycle is the most convenient and enjoyable way to commute in a city like Delhi. And because of this very reason, I’d been regularly nicking keys of all the nice bikes that’ve graced our long-term garage in the last two years.
Whether it was the Mojo or the R3 in the past, or the FZ25 and Apache RR 310 from our current fleet, I’ve been accused of hoarding these motorcycles a little longer than anyone else in the office. My views, however, have changed now, thanks to the arrival of the TVS NTorq 125 in our fleet, for this 125cc scooter has shown me that that a fancy and powerful motorcycle isn’t what I need for commuting.

I rode the NTorq at TVS’s test track during its market launch and came back fairly impressed. But after riding the scooter in what we journalists call ‘real-world conditions’, I’ve now become a fan of this thing! First of all, it’s an absolute hoot to ride – the engine has enough poke, the brakes are strong and it handles beautifully. Because the handlebar is tall, turning the NTorq lock-to-lock is a breeze in traffic – something you appreciate when you’re slicing through traffic. Thanks to its nippy handling, my hour-long commute time has reduced by a good 10 to 15 minutes these days.
