I owned a hero honda splender plus for 10 years and when i decided to change my vehicle , i got a good feedback and lot of laurels about brand tvs which made me go in for a tvs phoenix which i bought on 26th sep from mjm tvs ayanavaram chennai . Vehicle no : tn 01 au 9210

i used it for couple of days and on 2nd of oct , i was returning home with my wife and 10 months old kid on maduravoyal bypass at around 2pm, when the vehicle stopped with a big shudder. I stepped aside and tried reaching for help but couldn’t get any as it was a highway and was stranded there for almost an hour with the kid. I had no choice but to send my wife and kid alone back home and managed to get a truck, got back home with the vehicle after a troublesome two hours of mental agony for having left them in midway and that i had to go thru this on the 6th day of having bought a brand new vehicle.

I was taken in for a shock as it was last thing i had thought about of a brand like tvs and never dreamt that i had to go through this ordeal within a week of having bought a vehicle from a well known brand.

On 3rd oct, i went to the dealer and explained what had happened, but was extremely disappointed by the response given that the vehicle will be repaired if i could bring it to the showroom. Post my repeated talks with mr.Arul , they agreed and took the vehicle from my residence. He mentioned that i would be getting a revert within two hours with regard reason for the breakdown.

There was no response till 3rd noon, post which i tried reaching mr.Arul on his mobile , but the phone was picked by a lady who answered that he is busy and that he will get back to me. I received no call till end of day, post which i went to the showroom and met him. I was perplexed to get a response that the complete bore has to be changed and that the vehicle has to be sent to the factory for that purpose.

I am sure all of us are aware that post such change the vehicle would be as good as a second hand vehicle & which is abt 8-9 years old. Is this what a customer feel when they buy any tvs products. Needless to say that any sane person who has undergone this pain will not be in a better state of mind to pursue his work till its resolved, and i am no exception to this and would like highlight that this situation has left me in a total shock and i couldn’t focus on my work as well..

My intention to write this mail atleast other ordinary middle class human being will consider before buy tvs bike.

Pros

cons

Tvs phoenix - a pleasant surprise
2 years ago
Siddhartha Swarup Parida
I have owned my phoenix for nearly 8.5 years now at the time of writing this review. Yeah, took my time with it. Here is what I think of it.
Pros
1. Solid reliability with low running cost
2. A full tank can easily last for 500-600 kms of mixed riding. I ride fast with always speeds above 60 kmph so that is my take.
3. Great looks for a commuter
4. Suspension is comfortable for longer rides
5. You can do long-distance rides on it with significant luggage. I did a 850 km long journey with even mountains and long narrow back roads, this bike surprisingly held up well.
6. Higher economy speed of 60kmph. Great for highway cruising.
7. Lightweight so easily managed in city traffic.
8. Tvs after discontinuing this still provide amazing service of this model and cheap too.
9. Has a surprising top end for a 4-speed geared unit.
10. Can be amusing to ride every time you get on it for it's quirky nature.
Cons
1. Desparately needed the 5th gear
2. Lightweight means higher speed stability is a question of how efficient is your riding
3. Lacks basic instrumentation like time or distance to empty even when it has a fully digital instrument cluster
4. Vibrations are always persistent
5. The sweet spot is 45 kmph which is not ideal for faster traffic conditions
6. Has had historically better 125cc competitive from other companies
Having said all these, after all these years of owning one, i enjoyed every bit of it as it is still my first ever ride. Tvs phoenix is a great blast from the good old days when motorcycling used to be fun and fuel prices weren't burning holes in everyone's pocket! cheers.

1. All weather tyres usually from Ceat help save fuel and are a great comfort to ride 2. Use synthetic High-end engine oil for better efficiency and performance 3. Don't ever rev it out, it's futile and very vibey.

Superb with little high maintaining cost
6 years ago
Anuj Kumar
Buying and riding so easy. Good balancing. Look, performance good but maintenance cost very high, when you use approx 2500 km/month takes around 3000-4000 approx every month cost instead of petrol value. Maintaining is costly, rest superb. Comfort for family, good space. In showroom service takes more time to service than what tvs commits.

Tvs phoenix

Akarsh Mohapatra
This bike is awesome i should thanks tvs company for making such a good bike .The riding experience was very nice and looks like a sports bike similar to apache and pickup is very good The maintenance is very less . The pros is that the headlights are good and it has a locator key which will help us to know if the vehicle is in distant place or at dark areas and the cons is that when the speed crosses to 80 kmph it vibrates.

This bike is awesome i should thanks tvs company for making such a good bike .The riding experience was very nice and looks like a sports bike similar to apache and pickup is very good The maintenance is very less . The pros is that the headlights are good and it has a locator key which will help us to know if the vehicle is in distant place or at dark areas and the cons is that when the speed crosses to 80 kmph it vibrates.

This is one of the most powerful 125 cc bikes,
I am a great fan of this bike ....
Cruising speed - 50-60 kmph
Very comfortable for touring.
If you want to go on a trip with this bike, believe me, you never felt disappointed with this machine.
A legendary 125 cc bike tvs phoenix 125 .

Tvs phoenix - a pleasant surprise
2 years ago
Siddhartha Swarup Parida
I have owned my phoenix for nearly 8.5 years now at the time of writing this review. Yeah, took my time with it. Here is what I think of it.
Pros
1. Solid reliability with low running cost
2. A full tank can easily last for 500-600 kms of mixed riding. I ride fast with always speeds above 60 kmph so that is my take.
3. Great looks for a commuter
4. Suspension is comfortable for longer rides
5. You can do long-distance rides on it with significant luggage. I did a 850 km long journey with even mountains and long narrow back roads, this bike surprisingly held up well.
6. Higher economy speed of 60kmph. Great for highway cruising.
7. Lightweight so easily managed in city traffic.
8. Tvs after discontinuing this still provide amazing service of this model and cheap too.
9. Has a surprising top end for a 4-speed geared unit.
10. Can be amusing to ride every time you get on it for it's quirky nature.
Cons
1. Desparately needed the 5th gear
2. Lightweight means higher speed stability is a question of how efficient is your riding
3. Lacks basic instrumentation like time or distance to empty even when it has a fully digital instrument cluster
4. Vibrations are always persistent
5. The sweet spot is 45 kmph which is not ideal for faster traffic conditions
6. Has had historically better 125cc competitive from other companies
Having said all these, after all these years of owning one, i enjoyed every bit of it as it is still my first ever ride. Tvs phoenix is a great blast from the good old days when motorcycling used to be fun and fuel prices weren't burning holes in everyone's pocket! cheers.

Tips for other riders
1. All weather tyres usually from Ceat help save fuel and are a great comfort to ride 2. Use synthetic High-end engine oil for better efficiency and performance 3. Don't ever rev it out, it's futile and very vibey.

Superb with little high maintaining cost
6 years ago
Anuj Kumar
Buying and riding so easy. Good balancing. Look, performance good but maintenance cost very high, when you use approx 2500 km/month takes around 3000-4000 approx every month cost instead of petrol value. Maintaining is costly, rest superb. Comfort for family, good space. In showroom service takes more time to service than what tvs commits.
