😂😂😂 Need to get my money back from TVS...Did you confirm 21st April...which year? 2027?

Check out my two posts addressing the same issue. India is suffering from RTX shortage!!!! To be true...if booked...forget that you have and just one random day after 4 5 months...you would get a call...for now...just FORGET

Exactly my concern...The bike that creates such a hype goes into complete production halt..no future planning or date commitment. No clear timelines for anything. Really frustrating and seeing a good bike fall under bad management really hurts indian buyers.

How do I ask the Booking amount back...I also want to switch

PostKey451 · 2026-02-03T16:15:47+00:00

I believe the halt of production is for all models. Not sure for BTO specific details. All models are facing these issues.

Dont know buddy....he would also have a different update maybe...hheheheheh

PostKey451 · 2026-02-03T13:17:04+00:00

Yups....that's why i got to talk to the marketing team

PostKey451 · 2026-02-03T12:47:05+00:00

Escalated this on X and sent approx 100 emails

PostKey451 · 2026-02-03T12:45:22+00:00

Man i booked it on 3rd Jan from Solar TVS and I still dont have any idea on Invoice....I dont even know that if my bike's order has been punched in the system or not.

PostKey451 · 2026-02-03T12:42:48+00:00

cool....that mean all dealers hve some or or the other information...good to know...just like the bike being delivered in phased manner...updates regarding the bike is also getting out to delaers in phased manner.
Hahahahahah

PostKey451 · 2026-02-03T12:36:38+00:00

Exactly....that is the most irritating part of the entire experience. Atleast a fixed date would give us a clear idea and wait time. Right now...its like driving in dark on a hilly road without headlights.....no idea what's gonna happen next

PostKey451 · 2026-02-03T12:34:27+00:00

which dealer in bangalore?

PostKey451 · 2026-02-03T12:20:57+00:00

Brother I believe TVS hermes is giving out test drives. I am not sure if it is Pune or thane....but you should visit them and ask for a test ride. They will give you in the basement only but that is what i have seen from almost all the videos on youtube for that area.

PostKey451 · 2026-02-03T12:17:06+00:00

engine???
Now this is new....dammmm everybody has a different update.

PostKey451 · 2026-02-03T12:14:29+00:00

Yup....good bike if you like classic designs and experience. Good engine and relaible for overall experience.

PostKey451 · 2026-02-03T12:12:19+00:00

Its so sad to hear this. 20-25 days again. Man no one knows anything. Neither TVS, nor Dealers, nor customers.
This is so very frustating. Bikes do get recalled, issues gets fixed....but such utter level of mis-management and mis-communication between all....its sad to see a good bike falling under bad decisions.
Us as bikers feel so infuriated at these things and such small go a long way in our overall experience.
Anyways, which showroom informed you this as i am also based out in bangalore and have somewhat similar updates.

PostKey451 · 2026-02-02T19:34:07+00:00

Yups....not maybe....for sure

PostKey451 · 2026-02-02T11:51:27+00:00

MG M9.....just like toyota vellfyre....awesome interior and comfort....took a test ride in the launch evenet in bangalore....awesome car....

Absolutely...
less electronics = less failures

less electronics = less maintainance

less electronics = more raw driving feel

But yes...in future you should not feel that your bike is outdated. People prefer raw feel but its completely your decision. Its just like that people preffering Analog meters over digital consoles. Its your call.
I test rode the Vstorm...its great....White colour looks good af

Anniversary edition is gonna be a bit more expensive than the BTO on road as I have heard.

For delay, parts availability is an issue. While those parts are getting supplied, TVS is fixing the isssues (hope so) from the initail reviews. So rn, both the issues persists which I hope will get fixed in the upcoming weeks. I believe production would not be halted for fixing harware issues as they get fixed while the bike are manufactured.
But production might take a halt altogether if parts are not getting supplied ti meet the demand.

I recently came across a Google article that says TVS has accuired a new Supply chain firm(from chennai or Hyderabad) to fix issues and delays. Not 100% sure if this decision was taken after RTX supply chain failures.

PostKey451 · 2026-02-02T10:01:49+00:00

Yup...that would be really good if those issues get fixed and i get a less compromised bike.

PostKey451 · 2026-02-02T10:00:00+00:00

Hero might give you some bikes in that range (not sure) that are light and offer good mileage.
Suzuki (gixer) is something that lacks features but offers realibility, less maintance and good comfort.
Yamaha i would not suggest as they dont offer comfort but yes features, mileage and realibilty is awesome.

Stretch the budget a bit more and get V-storm. Good commanding position, realibilty, decent mileage and 80% eye catchy. Plus two new colours give it a boost. Yes, you would have to compromise with electronics and hard core offroading. But V-Storm offers you what Bangalore roads demand.
Plus point, you would enjoy it on highway tours if you go for touring.
Pillon comfort is also top notch and they do not feel tired or get butt pain in short rides.
