TVS Raider 125 vs Yamaha MT-25

The TVS Raider 125 (2025) and the Yamaha MT-25 (2025) are compared with the same Moto Kıyas physics model under identical conditions: flat dry asphalt, no wind, a 75 kg rider and no passenger. The TVS Raider 125 is a naked bike with 125 cc, 11.4 hp and 120 kg; the Yamaha MT-25 is a naked bike with 250 cc, 35.4 hp and 166 kg. Power-to-weight with the rider: 58.5 hp/ton versus 146.9 hp/ton. On this measure the Yamaha MT-25 is 151% ahead.

In the simulation the TVS Raider 125 covers 0-100 km/h (speedometer) in 21.08 s and the Yamaha MT-25 in 6.35 s; the Yamaha MT-25 is quicker by 14.73 s. In the 60-0 km/h brake test, braking distance without the 0.3 s reaction time is 17.3 m for the TVS Raider 125 (ABS unknown, class assumption: no ABS) and 17.3 m for the Yamaha MT-25 (ABS unknown, class assumption: no ABS). The standard 60-0 test is used because one calculated top speed is below 110 km/h. Calculated top speed: 105 km/h (GPS measurement) versus 147 km/h (derived (GPS ratio)).

All values are an estimated simulation, not road-test measurements. Technical data comes from the sources listed below; the model uses model-specific parameters calibrated against published road tests for both.
