A new 'Dhaakad' campaign to highlight the two-wheeler's mileage and performance has also been launched.
Here's recalling the TVS Radeon
The TVS Radeon sits on a single-cradle tubular frame and offers a minimalistic look, featuring a headlamp cluster with chrome bezels, a sloping fuel tank, a flat-type seat, rounded mirrors, and a silvered exhaust pipe.
