guys this is victor gl


Hi folks, I?ve been using victor past 24 months. I am proud to be the owner of this bike. Its performance is excellent. I think whatever I write aboutVICTOR is too less. Its really more smiles per hour bike for the customers. Its service backup is too good. Once I registered a problem faced by me on the official site( http://www.tvsmotor.co.in) of TVS. The very next day I got a call from tvs officials from their headquarters(it was from pune), to clarify my pbl. This shows their quality service after sales. Regarding bike its excellent in 110cc segment no one can beat it. Has good power against the mileage it provides. Shocks are excellent. Head light is simply great just loaded with high intensity of focus. A blind person an also see what?s in front of him while driving VICTOR with headlights on? It has got 12v, 35 watts headlight. It?s the most comfortable bike while riding, its seats are wide & soft enough which makes it more comfortable.The pillion seat is broad with good sitting posture. Drive this bike in economy mode (green), as mileage is your prime concern, which would gift you on good terms of average. gear shift is good with low end torque which minimizes regular gear shifts in city driving. Though it lags 5th cog/gear. Its top speed is upto 97 km/hr speedo reading sometime it reaches above 103 kmph mark. The clutch is very soft to operate. According to its engine capacity, the power & pick up is good. Braking is good enough but it lags disc brakes. Disc brakes would be real value for money on this bike. It`s handling & road grip at such high speeds is superb that too least or minor vibration(since it is an machine fitted with any engine, it has to vibrate which is law of nature and nobody can change it) which gives you good stability. Since, I drive on eastern express highway, I always drive it at 90 to 95km/h then also I achieve average of 48 to 50 kp/lt which is great. Till date it has not given me any kind of major problems rather then punctures. To tell you, within a month that to on Mumbai roads my bike got puncture for as many as 5 times and that too on the rear tyre only. victors manufactured in 2002 to march 2003 had bad tyres fitted at the rear which were called as TVS shrichakra tyres whose rubber quality is too bad. This problem was clarified by fitting got quality tyres with better grip for the latter period bikes.


Concerns: 1) It`s an tall bike as compared to other 100 -110cc bikes. One should have atleast 5.4?? height to drive this bike comfortably.


2) Sitting posture is not macho type. It gives a feeling like our grandpa is driving the bike.


3) Rear tvs tyres are worst with no better road grip.(bikes manufactured in 2002)


4) Fuel lid/cap is not at all good as water goes in it during rainy season.But this pbl is clarified in new tvs models i.e new gl ,gx and glx models but not in old gl models.


5) Paint quality is average.


Pros:


1) most comfortable bike.


2) Good average 66 kmpl with mixed city as well as highway driving.


3) Good stability at top speeds.


4) Less vibrations.


5) Maintenance free bike.


6) Mest head light beam quality. no other bike can beat in its beam quality. its damn good.


7) Power and economy mode better than a tachometer.


8) Good suspension,pickup. 9) Much better service network. So, anyone needs to go for an 110cc bike, VICTOR is real VICTORY for you guys. A complete peace of mind(no problem bike). One rate this bike overall as * * * * bike. Happy driving & keep rockin. Regards Am.G(hecoolsteer).
