    Re: TVS-NTorq 125 Ownership Thread

    Guys I'm planning to buy Ntorq 125 as a daily scooter for groceries and occasional commute to office for 25+ KMS. I already own RTR 200. But just need a scooter to make things easy.

    Need some help on the reliability side of the scooter

    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-

    This plastic part under the foot board is damn filmsy. Will break easily. It wasnt even necessary to have itin that shape just for looks.

    This part behind the foot board will attract scratches from shoes. This should have been matt black like in Jupiter.

    The foot board is a little less wider than Jupiter.

    Done only 40 kms today, will update after 1st servicing.

    Please let me know if anything specific that I need to check during the PDI.

    I noticed all the cables near the engine fan were without a cover. They were intact though. I'm little concerned if it's like that for all ntorq or just that one.
    Forgot to take a pic.
    Yes. Thats how they are. Used like hell in rain. Didnt find any issues...
    Ive done 5k kms. Loving it. It still a head turner.

Also, about the post on fuel gauge, I still around 15 kms even after the reading says "fuel empty". So it think manufacturing defect is apparent. So how do I go about this? Any idea?

    Secondly I have red matte version. Anyone know how I can get the exact color code of the red for some patch-up paint job for a couple of scratches?
    File a complaint with TVS Showroom and Also call TVS's customer care to explain the manufacturing defects. They are good at following it up and do what they can to fix it. If they are asking you to adjust to it, don't agree and push them to fix or replace. Most likely they will fix it.

    Re: TVS-NTorq 125 Ownership Thread

    Im facing couple of issues with ntorq.
    1. Before it use to start with self start in just 1 push and dont need to rev the accelerate, but now i have to crank the self start and have to rev the accelarate as well.
    2. When my bike is really slow around 5 to 10 kmph, the scootr shuts down and i have to restart it..
    3. When i go over pot holes or press the front break really hard and stop, i hear a tak tak sound ftom front wheel/fork/front side.
    Please share some solutions for this...

    Re: TVS-NTorq 125 Ownership Thread

    I just booked a red color TVS ntorq last week after going through several reviews and discussions.

    Could anyone suggest where to get a "bag hook" (the oval ring shaped hook, for hanging stuff and also used for pillion support) for the ntorq, the showroom person and service centre persons are telling me that as of now no accessories are available for the scooter, and getting hands on the scooter is itself a challenge.

    Has anyone done a DIY on some other scooter bag hooks??

    Do suggest me with some options.

    Re: TVS-NTorq 125 Ownership Thread

    Seems that while there are few happy customers, there are many who are complaining about Fuel Level on Digital Screen / Fuel Gauge, Low Mileage (TVS Claims 48kmpl), few have issues with sounds during bumps and also knocking sound from the exhaust. I am thinking about getting one but seeing these complaints on Ntorq's facebook page and following youtube comments from different user videos, I feel like waiting little longer. Hopefully, they will address these issues in freshly assembled stocks.

    I just hate the headlight design. TVS should have also put LED there and also front switch access to open trunk/cover of a fuel tank. The price is competitive but is no way cheap. These couple of things should have been there in new models.

    My dad's also gonna use it, as I am gonna buy dominar soon [emoji2]

    Main requirements:

    1.Good performance

    Good handling and brakes, zero (minor) vibrations.

    1.Good mileage(atleast 40+)

    my Twister is 7 years old and still gives 45+ always, funny thing is chain sprocket and clutch plates have gone long back...yet it delivers!!

    Great reliability and service.

    Honda is also reliable but their service is shit...that's the only thing that's stopping me to buy another Honda.

    I have wrote 3 complaints since last year because of their pathetic service, and they ****ing don't care.


    Please help me decide,

    Thanks[emoji1][emoji1]
    Hey! I have seen many reviews on YouTube and also read about TVS NTorq vs Honda Grazia.
    Hands down, I would recommend you choose the TVS since it offers the most comfortable ride quality compared to Grazia. It also has good performance and good boot space, good footboard space. Although it looks sporty, I'm guessing your dad wants a comfortable ride - so TVS NTorq anyday.

    Secondly, for you to avoid hassles of service, TVS NTorq is again a good option since the after sales service is really good. My mom has a 8 year old TVS Scooty Pep and it is still fantastic and plush to ride. The service from TVS has also been really good.

    Sometimes, they miss out on things like tighetning lose mirrors, etc, but they do it immediately when it is told to them when you're picking up the scooter.

    I own a Suzuki Gixxer and I'm planning to sell it and get myself either the NTorq or Jupiter purely for practicality, comfort and features.

    Service depends on Mechanic assigned actually. However, the load of work certainly affects the quality. Honda service centres are too busy! I had to wait 1 hour at least for my turn to have the service advisor fill up the form. Then, they ask you to come after 4 pm unless you can talk your way through them to get your vehicle's service done earlier. I had gone for my Grazia to get serviced 2 weeks back. I had specifically asked them to check mileage setting, rattling noise from the front fork, digital fuel gauge which drops a level from 5 bar to 2 straight etc. I live far from service centre so service manager agreed to get my vehicle in for the service early. I saw from waiting area that all he did was simply changed oil by parking on the side of a wall. Done. They even tried to charge extra Rs. 250 for lubrication in which they simply oil the switches and break. The oil cost for engine oil was Rs. 240. So imagine them ripping you off for few drops of oil and charge Rs. 250 for it. They don't have to bend down for it or open any screw.

    I told them that no lubrication is done, and argued so they agreed to just charge me for oil. So, this is how Honda works and for my reason for selling my Grazia just yesterday. Good Scooter but terrible service waiting time and not properly done either.

    TVS is better in sense of waiting time because if you pick a proper place of service, they will not be that busy as Honda and will listen to your problem and address it properly by giving it a good time right in front of you as I also own TVS Jupiter and that's how I get it done.

    End of the day it's about how well they do it and your luck though. But, TVS service is better than Honda, no doubt about it.

    Post sales service of Honda has mixed reviews. Some says it's blows big time while others are happy with it. But most of them have negative which I feel is fine as Honda is too busy in sales that they don't have time for after sales.

    I have 2 TVS vehicles in family & for past 12 years I don't have any problem with TVS service centre.
