TVZ Suzuki Supra is one of the oldest bikes in India when the Indo Jap bikes took over the markets since 1980s. There were only 4 Bikes in 2-Stroke 100 to 200 Category. Which were sporty and stylish and ofcourse fast and furious
1-TVS SUZUKI SUPRA
2-BAJAJ RTZ - KAWASAKI
3-ESCORTS YAMAHA RX 100
4-ENFIELD FIERO - first Indian bike to have sported Disc Brakes ever.
The first version had "IND Suzuki" embossed on the engine panels and the later version with 11 BHP & 12Volt was "TVS Suzuki"
TVS Suzuki Supra was the first ever dual colour bike of Indian Markets. Only two versions were available i.e. Steel Grey with Met Blue and Steel Grey with Met Red.
Seating was best in its class. TVS introduced "Stepped Seat" for the first time in India. Before this bike all other bikes had flat seats.
This bike also went through a change in looks. First version had telescopic front forks and latter were fitted Ciriani Forks. An overall machine that led the market on a different track. Later this torch was carried by the road runner TVS Suzuki Shogun which was the first 2 stroke bike with 14BHP power house.
*TVS Suzuki Supra was again the first bike with a diff touch.
Was a good machine and will always be remembered.
