  • NEWS: TVS Flame SR 125 Launched

    /India PRwire/ - TVS Motor Company today announced the availability of its 2009 Flame model in the market under the brand TVS Flame SR 125. The new commuter motorcycle is loaded with a host of exciting features that has been further enhanced to delight its customers.

    According to H S Goindi, President Marketing – TVS Motor Company, “The TVS Flame SR125 comes with significantly enhanced low and mid range power delivery and better noise, vibration and handling (NVH) characteristics. The revolutionary Controlled Combustion Variable Timing Intelligent (CC-VTi) technology provides an advantageous combination of power and mileage backed by stunning looks.”

    TVS Flame SR 125’s well proven engine is propelled by a three valve, CC-VTi technology which ensures better pickup with optimum mileage and power. Developed with AVL Austria, this 125 cc, three valve engine is tuned to the ideal tumble-swirl port combination such that city riding on this machine is really smooth and comfortable. The engine’s hi-tumble reduces the need for constant gear shifting while the swirl port returns optimum mileage. The TVS Flame SR 125 is equipped with an electric start, weighs about 123 kgs and fires a single spark plug. The bike has a top speed at 95 kmph and churns out 10.5 bhp @ 7500 rpm.

    “One of the visible changes in the TVS Flame SR125 is the wider rear tyre. It is a category first. This impressive rear tyre, which has been a clamor by our customers, ensures better road grip and enhances the bike’s looks. Futuristic styling with refreshing new graphics deployed in this motorcycle gives it best-in-class appeal.” Goindi adds.

    TVS FLAME SR 125 boasts of several style statements including stylish headlamps with two position lamps and embedded turn signal lamps which give the bike a sporty finish. The 240 mm front disc brakes are complemented with a chic triangular exhaust that is not only unique but also enhances performance and delivers the smoothest of sounds and low emissions. The bike flaunts an elegant backlit digital console that prominently displays the first of its kind intelligent mileage indicator (IMI), low fuel warning and service indicator. The rear end of the bike sports a dual lens tail lamp that is first in its class. TVS Flame SR 125 is the only Indian motorcycle to be equipped with a gadget boot which provides the facility of on-tank storage.

    “The disc brake version is priced at 47,550/- ex-showroom comes in dual tone colours of red and blue along with an all black edition and is available at all TVS dealerships across the country. However, for those not wanting in the disc brake, the bike is also available with drum brakes. ” Goindi said.

      To be very frank I expected minor tweaks in design but this one looks exactly the same as the previous one.Blue seems to be the new colour though.

              Surprised to see single spark plug. If not for twin spark plugs, why did TVS challenged Bajaj again in Madras High Court?

                  There is no change of whatsoever in the bike - except the Engine is Tuned for Better Smoothness...then its Brother.......
                  And also for the info that the Top end has been reduced due to Increased Pick-up and Better Midrange Torque.....
                  Flame is a very good Commuter and now it has become more Refined................

                  Im Angry that there is no Upgraded in it....except the New Color Tone.....

                    Is this similar to the Bajaj's Swirl induction or Dts-Si ?

                      Well, its benefits are VERY similar to DTS Si, as shown below ... So, maybe it is the same thing?

                      The engine’s hi-tumble reduces the need for constant gear shifting (TORQUE) while the swirl port returns optimum mileage.
                      OMG! Bajaj ... Calm Down .. Don't sue TVS again ... Calm ... Relax...
