TVS Star Sport 100cc Bike .


TVS brand has become quite popular during the last couple of years and obviously the company wanted to leverage on the popularity ride. Almost 75% of the company’s bike sales come from the star brand. Yet another star that’s born recently is the TVS Star Sports that comes in 2 versions. The base version Sport comes in two colors; Carbon black and jet red, and alloy wheels. The deluxe version comes with fuel gauge and double-toned sporty chrome graphics in about 3 colors; black, blue and silver.If you want me to review the performance of TVS Star, let me tell you that the Sport bike comes with 99.7cc engine and it gives a peak power of 7.5bhp. Similar to its older brother Star City the Sport comes with one down-tubed chassis and a four-speed gearbox. The suspension has the same looks as that of the Star City, but the rear one comes with 5 steps adjustable stroke that is just a little longer than the Start City. Sport comes with alloy wheels and what makes it different from City is that a new face-lifted silencer (a matte silencer and a chrome heat shield with dual pod cluster).

This new technology would offer better performance, excellent pickups and the same high mileage. The pricing is very low for this new bike based on other competitor bikes which is around 32000[ex-showroom price] and comes with a five-year warranty.

Star sport comes with a dual tone alloy graphics, alloy wheels and excellent speedometer design. The Star Sport is a 100cc bike good for average users who are looking for a bike which offers good features at a better mileage and not for real sport bikers. Comes with different colours and contemporary design with a sporty look and currently available in three colours – Silver, Red and Black with 2 variations in models.

Star Sport basically is an economy bike targeted at the middle class masses. The price for either of the versions fall below the 40k mark. Additionally, TVS is offering a 5-year warranty on some parts of the bike. If you ask me a two-word verdict on my review, I would say that the TVS Star Sport is a style and sensible bike worth all money for the first-time bike buyers.
