Overall very good bike

I am very lazy inwriting. But some how I am able to write my first review.


So I am riding this bike for the last 3 months. I like thisbike because of its good looks and mileage. In starting it gives around 70 km/litre and after firstservice it gives around 80 km/litre. but pick up low but you know its only 99.27 cc.It competes with TVS star city so I amhere giving some comparison between these two bike


Platina Starcity


CC 99.27cc 99.8cc


Bhp 6.03kW (8.2bhp)@ 7500 rpm 7.5bhp (==5.5 kw) at 7500 rpm


compression ratio 9.5 9.3


torque 8.05Nm (0.82 Kg-m) @4500 7.5 Nmof at 5000 rpm


bore x stroke 53 x 45 51x 48.8


bore x stroke : - In an engine, the relationbetween the diameter of the cylinder bore and the length of the stroke of thepiston. This measurement tells you if the engine is designed to deliver morespeed or more torque. A long-stroke engine (where the length of the pistonstroke is greater than the diameter of the bore of a cylinder) delivers moretorque at the expense of maximum power; while a short-stroke engine deliversmore engine power with less low-end torque.


A larger bore x shorter stroke will make an engine that iseasier to operate at higher RPM, and produces greater HP.


A smaller bore x longer stroke will make an engine that runsat lower RPM, and produces greater torque.


bore= hp


stroke = torque


HP is themechanism that lifts a 550 pound weight at the rate of 1 foot/sec.


Torque is the mechanism that keeps the engineturning when a load is applied


You can easilydrive platine at 35 kmph without knocking in fourth gear.


I haven’t ridestar city. But after searching net and comparing feature go far platina. And I


am quitesatisfied with it. today bajaj dealer called all platina buyer for their feedback so went there


and find few problem in it which other user noticed. First is that the chain makes noise.( I does not


have this problem). second one is that some times it feel like that it need one gear more after fourth.




  • I find difficult to format it. if someone know to make table in tell me. I write all this in " word" and paste it here. then it looks fine even in preview . but not actually. any suggestions.
