    I am an Ntorq owner looking for some help on the possibility of softening the front as well as the back suspension of the scooter. The default factory setup is extremely hard for my taste and the area I live in has very bad roads which results in a sore bottom after a short ride. The suspension feels like I am sitting on a rock bench where every little pothole unsettles my back, bottom and the handlebar.

    The problem is less pronounced when riding with a pillion but it still doesn't feel comfortable enough.

    Does the Ntorq come with adjustable suspension?

    Any suggestions are welcome. As I purchased the scooter 1 month ago, I'd hate to sell it because of this problem where I will have to take a significant hit in terms of depreciation value.
    For comfort, you should have gone for Jupiter. Ntorq is an out right performance scooter with decent comfort level.
    I think you must have a bad back, hence its hurting you more. I ride on very bad roads regularly, but never had the back issue.
    Dont put pressure on your body, it will become worse.

    Hello, I am looking forward to buying ntorq in next few days. I had one doubt, Can anyone confirm if fuel lid shuts down with airtight seal. What about monsoon rains. Have you experienced water going in fuel tank?
    I have this problem with my current bike (Pulsar 150). In every monsoon I have to drain my fuel tank. Thinking of buying scooter but worried about external fuel lid.
    Thanks in advance.

    A very concise and informative review. I feel the scooter weight is on higher side. It could have come with narrower tyres because 100/110 size for scooter is a lot.

    Finally my city has nTorq available. Few findings of mine while having a test ride:

    1. It has a noisy exhaust which is a bit irritating for few people but I kinda like it.
    2. That rear tyre is damm fat!
    3. My Steelbird Adonis full face helmet was a perfect fir for its underseat storage.
    4. I took a friend of mine who owns access 125 & he find that pickup is better than access.

    Pricing is a big problem as in Haryana the prices are cheaper than Southern part.

    An ex showroom price of 65300/- is outrageously high considering we are part of NCR.
    Another showroom guy quoted 63400/- ex showroom.

    If that's the case I 'd rather go to Delhi & buy scooter from there & still save over 6K!

    For first time tank full to reserve received 37 KMPL fuel average. For family Jupitor / Wego is best, because this is a noisy machine.

    I saw this at the dealership today. It looks really good from the side and especially from the back. The front part, however, is not so exciting as it's similar to Dio due to headlight similarity. I think only two things could have been addressed better. 1. Front Headlight Full LED with little different design. 2. Seat opening from Front Keyhole only like in Access 125 or Switch like Honda Grazia or Activa 5G. Overall looks really good and the sound of the exhaust is just awesome, never heard in a scooter before. The average will be about 40KM as per the showroom and workshop manager.

    Yes, like the Avenger 180. I wonder how a tiny strip of DRL will attract the attention of oncoming traffic versus a proper AHO on low beam.

    Nice review as always! Way to go TVS! The red colored cooling fan and shockers are brillant.

I was under the impression that this switch is now missing in tow wheelers owing to the BS4 norms. My neighbors bought a Jupiter just a few months ago and there is no headlight ON/OFF switch on that as well. I thought that the switch was not provided so that owners cannot switch off the headlight even if they wanted to. Can you please shed some light on how TVS has managed to get this switch back??

    Please anyone tell me shall I go this long with Ntorq125 ??

    If yes what are the things I need to follow like need to give a break for 1hr once ? Or any other ?
    Any well maintained two-wheeler is capable of doing long trips (400 Kms or more) provided that you ride them within their limits and take some basic precautions like keeping a check on the fuel consumption.

    It is always advisable to take breaks at regular intervals to freshen up yourself and your machines and to avoid fatigue.
