The tvs star city mag wheel kick start which I own is my second but last tvs bike.earlier also I had the first version of tvs star city which gave hassle free performance for 1 year.then I exchanged that with this bike for looks, speedometer which has a fuel gauge which was lacking in the earlier one. But alas, the fuel gauge never worked right from the first day.
After many complaints and servicing I gave up.after one year even after all proper servicing my bike started giving white smoke.the people at the service centre changed the block piston.this was in august 2008.now again recently I observed a strange sound in the engine.
At service centre they said that the crank has to be replaced but they were short of that bike part.after 1 month, atlast, they have changed the crank and the bike is running smoothly but I have lost all my faith in tvs company and its bikes. So if you are going to buy a bike go for honda or hero honda bikes.I am also going to change my bike soon.
