Apart from two new colour options - chrome-black and chrome-brown - some minor cosmetic changes and a new seat, the biggest change in the special edition motorcycle is the addition of an optional front disc brake which should help improve its braking performance. With the two-wheeler industry going through its worst downturn in decades, TVS hopes these changes and additions will spur sales and help the company clear its existing stock before BS6 emission norms are implemented in April 2020. The rest of the motorcycle remains the same as the standard model. If you need a refresher on how the Radeon behaves in the real world, then click here.
