TVS MotoSoul is an event that celebrates the love of motorcycles and it got off to a roaring start in Goa. The TVS Ronin platform was the focus of Day 1 of TVS MotoSoul. Ronin is well-known for its modern-retro design and to prove how versatile the platform is, TVS Motor showcased four custom models based on the Ronin 225.
One of the Ronin customs is Agonda which has been designed by Germany-based JvB Moto. JvB Moto named the custom build after one of Goa’s most popular beaches, Agonda Beach. The modified bike has a scrambler profile. The modifier has changed the headlamp, side panels, fenders, seat, and exhaust of Ronin’s stock model. The Ronin Agonda has a matte white colour with contrasting 5-colour bands on the fuel tank. JvB Moto has altered the engine cover shape as well.
Musashi is another Ronin custom developed by an Indonesia-based Smoked Garage. It seems to be based on the Japanese legend Miyamoto Mushahi. He was a Japanese swordsman, philosopher, strategist, writer, and Ronin. He became famous through the stories of his dual-wielding and undefeated record of 61 duels. The custom design appears to work without any constraints or boundaries. This results in a radical profile for the bike.
Wakizashi is a Ronin custom built by Rajputana Customs in India. It has a cafe racer profile, including a single seat, a low-set and a pulled-back handlebar. Wire-spoke wheels, and a custom-designed sculpted fuel tank. The majority of the panels have been removed, leaving the bike muscle and bones. Following its name Wakizashi which is a smaller blade than Katana. The bike has road-biased tyres, making it ideal for urban racing.
TVS’ own SCR, customised by TVS Design, factory custom Ronin also made an appearance. The custom Ronin SCR is a rally machine. It features LED headlights, raised front fender, a modified seat and a tail section. TVS has equipped it with tracker-style side panels, and dual exhaust in a metallic finish. TVS has equipped the custom SCR with chunky block-pattern tyres. It’s got a nice colour scheme of light grey and bright yellow.
