Colours

TVS Motor Company is offering the Ronin in six colour options. The single-tone variant is offered in Magma Red that features on the fuel-tank and side panels. It is also available Lightning Black that is completely blacked-out. Both these paint options come with black fork bottles. 

Then there is the Delta Blue and Stargaze Black options that feature red pinstripe stickers on the alloy wheels and golden fork bottles.

Features

TVS has been known to equip their offerings with interesting features and the Ronin is no different. There is a full-LED lighting setup for the headlamp, tail lamp and tail lights as well.
