Used Buyer Review

The Star City Plus is TVS doing exactly what they do best — building a no-nonsense commuter that just refuses to die. I've seen these things crack 80,000 kilometres on original engines with nothing more than regular oil changes and a new chain. That 110cc single is agricultural in the best possible sense — it's not exciting, it doesn't pretend to be, but it fires every morning and sips fuel like nothing else on the road. Seriously, 55-60kmpl in real-world riding is legitimate. Buying used, the things to check are the carb jetting (previous owners love to mess with it chasing power that isn't there) and the swing arm bushings, which wear noticeably after 40,000km. Brake shoes front and rear need inspection — the drum setup works fine but wears faster than people expect. Frame rust is rare but check the stand pivot point. Avoid anything that's been used as a delivery bike without service records. Find one with a full TVS service history and you're getting one of the most reliable used buys in the commuter segment.
