*Hi All,
I am Anand.
I have seen so many reviews from Internet and bike riders before taking my bike.
*It could be useful to take decesion as per your needs.
My Needs in Bike:
Good comfortable height and weight.
Good Mileage.
I am a normal rider(not a rash driving) so do not need a bike which is more power like 150, 160 and above cc. The bike should not get more stretch when pillion sits.
It should have good suspension
Good Looking(Its not mean that it should possess looks of stunner(from Honda)
Good Headlight beam.
Mild engine sound.
Good horn sound.
Good Ground Clearance.
Then I bought a Star city 110 cc bike on Wednesday(06-08-08) Sri Meenakshi Auto Agencies, Valasaravakkam, Chennai.
The cost of the vehicle comes 45000/- on road and there was 2000 deduction through offer.
Why Star City 110 cc when others:
With my needs you can see the bike should be in the range of 100-125 cc with good mileage.
Hero Honda: Splendor plus - passion plus.
Bajaj : Platina – Discover -135 XCD
Yamaha: Gladiator
TVS: Star city, Flame.
Honda : Stunner CBF, Shine.
When asked suggestion for the bike for my need most of us said it is Splendor and passion and when I asked why they said that’s giving
Good Mileage
Second sale value.
Got Very good Name in India.(Brand)
Personally I do not look for the 2nd reason and 3rd reason.
Even if its good quality bike in india
Todays most of the bikes like platina star xcd giving good mileage as HH.
But look at the headlight, pass light, looks……etc.Hence I rejected HH.
For my weight and height(62 & 168 CM) I cant go to Gladiator.
For the spare parts issus I am not able to go to Honda shine and do not know the result of Honda stunner 125 cc(On road Rs 60500/-).
Platina and Star city was my final filter and choosed beaces of this mild engine good graphics(Horse Symbol in graphichs) and design.
