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). I did review the other
indicators of Star Sport and they come as usual with dome headlamp as
well as 5 pilot lamps. (TVS reviews this feature to be one of the first
in this segment).
Body panels and tail lamps received some tweaking to give sleeker and
elegant appearance overall from rear. The fuel tank is sleek and the
dual toned side panel makes it attractive. The vibration is still an
issue that TVS may have to deal with seriously in the coming days to
give any serious competition to the big names in the market.
So said, 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.
