Had the worst experience with tvs within 25000kmts big trouble with the engine waiting more than two months for spare parts tvs company not have any spare parts for this model even for a plastic spare I waited two and half months for the last service...Within one year that battery was dead... That bike's price is too high compared with other bikes I'm not feel anything new in that bike only colour and graphics are good..And the main thing tvs never listen to customers' complaints and you never get any response from tvs customer service...

Good for collectors. Not for everyone.

As it's a limited edition model, so point in crying that it's overpriced. This is made only for collectors who want to own an unique motorcycle. In my opinion, TVS has done a good job in extracting 19bhp from a 165cc engine, very close figures To Rtr200. So, now stop complaining about it being overpriced and congrats TVS for doing something unique, instead of changing sticker like Bajaj and other brands.

Price to specifications ratio is low Its too expensive compared to its competitorsI think either the price should be decreased or more features must be added One way the other can make the bike a perfect choice But specifically for me price should be decreased because in India there are few people who buy a bike over 1.5 lakh on road

As compared to 160 4v, The power terms and Outlook is quiet catchy but the lack of 6th gear and liquid cooled. But providing 19ps power that's make sense here. The maintenance is easier and the riding comfort is awesome. Best for daily commute and for long rides in this price segment.Value for money

Service Regularly for better life and never rev unnecessarily especially in City traffic, Maintain Chain lube and recommended engine oil grade provided in user manual. Avoid using aftermarket engine oil and spares without any knowledge. Maintain Fuel more than 2 liters in a tank to avoid damage of FI system.
