TVS Max 125 Semi-Trail Silently Launched in Nepal: Budget Commuter Goes Off-Road!

Slowly but steadily, TVS Nepal is increasing its portfolio of motorcycles in Nepal. There was a time when the TVS Apache Series and TVS Jupiter were only the TVS known models. However, TVS has done more to move away from that, bringing out some awesome products like TVS Apache RTR 160 4V, TVS NTorq 125 and TVS Radeon 110.

Moreover, it is stated to be a semi-trail bike with commuter-ish looks. As for the pricing, TVS Max 125 price in Nepal is Rs. 2,39,900.

Interestingly, some folks at Jagdamba weren’t quite sure if it would be available nationwide. However, it is now confirmed that TVS Max 125 will be available nationwide!

TVS Max 125 is a Semi-Trail: What Does It Mean?

Well, a Semi-Trail motorcycle is something you can take away for the occasional fun off-roading experience. You might think a 125cc motorcycle might not be able to handle interesting off-roading scenarios, but you can see it being done before on Yamaha XTZ 125, Aprilia SX and Aprilia RX.

Similarly, the overall component design showcases the ability to take it off-road! Interestingly, the TVS Max 125 comes with 19-inch (70/90-19) front wheel and 16-inch (90/100-16) rear wheel. Both come with off-roading spook wheels. Additionally, the front side also includes a beak style white mudguard. Plus, there’s that high clearance.

“What if I want to take my commuter off-roads?”

I think, nobody really asked that question. Apparently, TVS answered the question that nobody really asked.

The overall design, including the look and finish, feels like a strange mix of commuter meets off-roader. Honestly, it looks like a modified version of TVS Stryker.

This is usually how innovation starts. If one looks at history, nobody really asked for an iPhone either.

Anyways, I have not much of a complain here. I mean, it is unique and affordable for a 125cc semi-trail motorcycle. I just wished they could’ve gone with a high-mounted exhaust instead of a low-mounted one. Honestly, it would be interesting to see how the public reacts to it.
