TVS-NTorq 125 Ownership Thread

Re: TVS-NTorq 125 Ownership Thread

I've never been to Gujrat but if I'm winter the temperature drops to single digit, ntorq will not start. Almost every owner of ntorq that I've met has admitted that the scooter does not start when cold.
I recently did a 14km trip and parked my bike in the open. It rained for 10 minutes. Half an hour later, my ntorq failed to start. About 27kicks later the scooter almost came to life as if i has parked it for a month.
If you don't want to anger your wife, do yourself a favor, get any other scooter but ntorq.
Because happy wife = happy life.

Hi Gollum,

Thanks for the reply. Actually there is pretty much no such thing as winter in Vadodara, specially if you are coming from the North. The temperature at its coldest is about 14 degrees here.

This starting issue is looking to be a bit of a concern now. Problem is I dont want her to get another Honda and the Burgman is beyond my already bloated budget and looks weird with those small wheels. We do have indoor parking at my place and her work place but I guess I am really looking for excuses to buy this scooter.

Still I am very thankful for your candid feedback.

Hi Everyone

1. Does the console only connect to Android phones?
2. Is MapMyIndia as accurate as Google Maps?
3. Is there engine start issues in the morning with the button start?
4. What should i check for when taking delivery? I guess there is a PDI list for the Ntorq?

I have read the first 10 pages of the thread and apologize in advance if I am asking something which has already been discussed. I appreciate your replies.

Thanks!

To add more, my 17 year old splendor starts faster without choke after a month or two of sitting idle.

All of the items are being charges by Honda on every scooter as a compulsory accessories which includes side mirrors, footmat, ladies foot rest, seat cover & side beadings @3500/-.

Well, they can charge anything... People buy Honda blindly. So if you resale, people will buy that defective peice blindly aswell. Their Support team never answer your queries/complaints, You might get lucky if its a CBR. But the showroom guys never listn to the HO. My experience with CBR was ruined due to those @#$%$#.
Coming to Yamaha & TVS, the whole scenario changes.. Suddenly you feel privileged.

Hi Sambit,

Thanks for replying. Actually I had read some time back that Mirrors were charged as an extra accessory in some Honda Scooters, probably the Navi, hence my question. Will keep the ladies footrest and mat in mind.

Re: TVS-NTorq 125 Ownership Thread

1. Mirrors are integral part of any vehicle. But ladies footrest is extra accessory.
2. Opt for the floor mat.
3. Try downloading on your apple.
4. -
5. Yes there is some issue in the morning, if bike remain unused for a day. Mine is going good now after 1st servicing.
6. Just the scratches. Odo reading should not be more that 20-30 kms.

Hi Everyone!

I have booked an Ntorq (blue colour) for my wife as a surprise for her birthday in September. I have never purchased a scooter and am mainly a bike guy. Test rode the scooter and loved how vibe free it was compared to her current scooter. I have a Dominar and really liked the pick up of the Ntorq.

All said and done can you please help me with the following?

1. Are the mirrors separate accessories or are they part of the package?
2. Are there any accessories I can opt for from TVS? If so what are the approx prices?
3. Does the console only connect to Android phones?
4. Is MapMyIndia as accurate as Google Maps?
5. Is there engine start issues in the morning with the button start?

Re: TVS-NTorq 125 Ownership Thread

Ive got my vehicle back after is refused to start and left me stranded on the road at 330am.. This was 2 days back.
Now ive got it back, tvs mechanic said there were lot of dust and mud in petrol tank, hence the petrol wasnt passing to the engine.
I m not taking risk to take it to my work as of now. Ill leave it idle for 8 to 10 hours amd check for the issue..
Do u guys think what the mechanic said was truth?
Because never faces this issue with jupiter in 2 years.

Re: TVS-NTorq 125 Ownership Thread

Yes, this looks like some serious issue with autochoke..... Will share a video for sure...

Auto-choke? Man, I didn't realise this Scooter had auto-choke. Speaking from a previous experience I've had with a Discover 100M, automatic usage of choke is the worst. Starting issues will just leave you stranded and helpless.

Re: TVS-NTorq 125 Ownership Thread

Yes im in for video. I had to tow my vehicle. It didnt start at 330 am. Just 5 months old vehicle. Regretting buy this.

Re: TVS-NTorq 125 Ownership Thread

Yes, there is cold starting issue. If u keep the bike unused for 1 day, it take around 20 cranks to start in the morning. Thats bad though. Bike has run only 650kms as of now. Worst thing is, once it starts, u cant reproduce the issue before the mechanic. 😁 It starts with 1 light touch to the start switch the whole day.

I keep the electric start held till it starts.
I don't care if the starter motor Burns out. I'm going to make a YouTube video of this. If you guys can take a video clip i will add it to the video to show to tvs that this is not an isolated issue.

Re: TVS-NTorq 125 Ownership Thread

I would recommend not to buy ntorq. Im constantly facing starting issue with the scooter. Towed it to service center already twice. Last night at 330 am it refused to start when i was coming back home from work..
The mechanic came and he couldnt do anything and then the vehicle got towed till my home 30kms at 630am. Now need to tow it again to service centre.

So, I Sold my Jupiter(45K kms odo, 3.6 years old) yesterday. It served my extremely well and was reliable to the core. Wasnt in mood of selling it actually, was just checking the demand for it in used market. Luckily got a good value within 2 day of posting the ad and its gone!!!!
Got the Ntorq today. On Road price Cuttack is 74400/- including zero dep insurance. Here are some pic-

Blue love.

We have the same bikes I could not get the Blue. And I sold my TVS Scooty Zest for Ntorq.
BTW have you faced any issues with starting NTORQ?
