The reason for parting is simple..m upgrading to a bigger bike..
i used to get mileage between 50 and 70kmpl depending on riding conditions and the condition of clutch plate...
do extend warranty..its very useful.
how many years of warranty u got from the company?

guys i need some help , my bro's star city was dropped while parked , now the front visor , turn indicators n mirror are all in bits ... any idea how much it would cost to replace the front cowl ?

The fairing should set you back by 450-550 bucks. The headlight assembly costs around 250.

do i have to replace headlight assy ? it's proper , the visor is the one thats completely broken ... 450-550 seems alright i guess ...

Re: TVS starcity100/110/starsports

Hi all,

Its a bit strange that I am writing in the ownership review thread after having sold this bike but such is the quality of the bike that I still fondly remember it. I bought this bike in its launch year 2006 as an upgrade from my old KB100 (though I still have the KB100). Very little was heard about this bike except for the brand ambassador MS Dhoni. I took it because it was a good bargain between the unreliability of Bajaj and the expensive spares of Hero Honda.

When I sold this bike for an upgrade in 2013, I had developed such a loyalty to the brand TVS that if they sold a 150CC bike with upright riding position, I would have picked it eyes closed.
I had to go for a GS 150 for the upgrade.

In simple terms, the bike served me for 7 years 40,000 kms on the odometer and the bike never gave me any trouble. The FE increased by the day. I used to get about 57 to 60 in the first few years. I quickly learnt the trick of improving fuel economy and used to get about 63 to 65. By the time the bike was 5 years old, I used to get about 67 to 70 regularly.

Things I would remember about the bike is reliability, smooth gear shift, low maintenance and running costs, the big fuel tank, comfortable seats, etc. This was a 100 cc bike with a big bike feel.

There is one thing I would not remember about this bike is its sound. I hardly used to hear any. Cruising between 50 to 60, I only used to hear the wind howling and never heard the bike's engine.

In my bike, I had changed the tyres at about 35000 kms, chain sprockets at about 40000 kms. I don't recall changing anything else on the bike apart from the engine oil.

Here are some pics of the bike. These were taken in February 2013 on the day I posted the ad. I will share a few more insights later on.
