Re: TVS Jupiter Owners Review and Experience

Hello ! What is the Service interval for Jupiter after the free services are over ? At how many kilometres ?

Re: TVS Jupiter Owners Review and Experience

Hello friends,

I had been watching this thread closely since I needed a new scoot as a workhorse. Finally got one in grey on Monday.

Delivery experience was good. I chose the scoot from several grey colored ones in the dealer's lot. Manufacturing date is 28 August as per the sticker. OTR cost 59965/- Did not opt for those ugly steel guards. Other things added:

foot board matting
seat cover
0 dep insurance
extended warranty
complimentary teflon

Got insurance free due to state govt employee benefit

Re: TVS Jupiter Owners Review and Experience

Thanks a lot,

1. I had asked TVS ASC mechanics to clean and tune carb. Most probably they didn't as i couldn't be there when they were servicing the scoot. Is it advisable to get the same done from roadside mechanics? Because atleast they will do the job, TVS mechanics simply ignore what we request them to do and just do the oil change and cleaning of the vehicle in the name of 'service'.

2. I will get liners checked, thanks. Rear brakes are very strong but front brakes, even when pulled with full force, i barely feel any retardation. As if someone poured oil inside the drum

Re: TVS Jupiter Owners Review and Experience

1. For the stalling problem, I have been successfully using IOC Add on and a proper tuning has to be done to the carb.

2. Get the liners checked, my brakes are working fantastic so it might be a problem with your liners.

3. Disc brakes have tendency to lock the wheel in the front more than drum brakes (in my personal opinion). And for the Jupiter I would say the drum brakes are more than adequate.

Re: TVS Jupiter Owners Review and Experience

This is review of my First paid service at 12600 Kms after 15 months of


Purchase. The TVS Jupiter proved to be a good horse and works really well.


MIleage remains between 50-55 considering i live in metro and also drive on


highways at 60 odd speeds. I had changed my stock horn to Minda windtone


horn and it worked really well, but the service centre people screwed this


time by putting too much water and now the horn doesnt sound well. Though


the horn is well fixed inside what to tell to such service centre peoples.


This is first time after service horn hasnt worked well and remains to put


a feeble output instead of the smooth wind tone output. Spent one full hour opening the front cover and found that water had entered into the horn, took horn out and removed the water. Now horn sounds well. Also my Vehicle has


got too much scratches unknowingly by parking on roads / beaches etc


wherein vehicles are closely parked. Service centre guy suggested to fix a


sticker on that scratch part. I am enclosing photos of scratches and need


your suggestions as to which place in chennai would be good to either


remove the scratch or cover it with sticker.

Re: TVS Jupiter Owners Review and Experience

I have two issues, will appreciate if you guys could help me with these:

1. Stalling problem: When i slow down and as soon as i come to halt, scoot stalls (happens occasionally) OR when i am stopped and as soon as i give some acceleration to move forward, engine dies. What might be the problem? this problem exists ever since it was new.


2. Front drum brake is non existent. Rear brake has very good bite but front doesn't stop even when pulled with full force. Tried adjusting them, found no improvement. Any solution to this?


Can it be converted to a disc setup? i know it may cost a bomb, would require new master cylinder, caliper and disc, new alloy, new right fork. I am willing to shell out money if total cost doesn't exceed 6k.

Re: TVS Jupiter Doubts regarding mileage

No sorry, I havnt changed anything except the Drive Belt. and the rear tyre.

Re: TVS Jupiter Doubts regarding mileage

Did you changed any part in the clutch assembly in these 31.5k kms, if yes then could you please tell what were those.

Thanks

Re: TVS Jupiter Owners Review and Experience

Which one is better Motul 5100 or Motul Scooter LE

Re: TVS Jupiter Doubts regarding mileage

Milage will settle at 42-44 kmpl(after 2nd svc) within city limits.If you can take easy on throttle, it might show you more.

ODO= 31.5K kms.
The Apollo tyre, that was installed last year gave up too soon. Bubble formation was there. I have put that in warranty claim(will change the front tyre, once I get the replacement).

Now replaced rear tyre to Ceat Zoom. I must say, this is a very good tyre for the scoot.

TVS Jupiter Doubts regarding mileage

Hello guys
I have bought TVS Jupiter 15 days back
I have driven 270 kilometers
I am a bit worried that the mileage figures are very less around 38-40 kilometers per litre
Is this common during run in period
Or is it a problem
Will the mileage improve after 1st service ??
Any help is appreciated
Thank you

Re: TVS Jupiter Owners Review and Experience

Did you changed any parts in the clutch assembly in these 35k kms? If yes then please tell me what were those.

Thanks

Re: TVS Jupiter Owners Review and Experience

Jupiter completes 35000 KMs (less than 1.5 years) without any issues. Planning to change Fork Oil this time.

Air Filter changed at 33000 KMS along with adding a tube at the rear tubeless tire because of punctures.

So far. So good.

Exactly

TVS Jupiter - Oversize pistons, reboring help!

If i were to get a bit more power out of the scooter, what would be the best way?

Please let me know if there are oversize pistons available for the jupiters block and if it shares the block and piston with any other scooter/bike.

My mechanic said that best bore to 150cc which would be approx 4th oversize?

Upgrades are restricted to engine, fueling and exhaust system.

Please correct me if I'm wrong.

Re: TVS Jupiter Owners Review and Experience

Just wanted to know how the carb tuning works. Picture attached is the carb on the TVS jupiter (top view)

Marked Red: Fuel Screw
Turned clockwise reduces fuel making it run lean and Anticlockwise makes it run richer.

Marked Green: Idle screw
Changes the way the engine idles, rich / lean idle.


Is this assumption right?
