The first 1000 km is a crucial part of your motorcycle. Proper running-in operation during this period helps in ensuring
a maximum life and smooth performance of your motorcycle.
The reliability and performance of your motorcycle depends on the special care and restrain exercised during the
running-in period. It is especially important that you avoid operating the engine in high speed (RPM), which could
expose the engine parts to excessive stress. Recommended speed during the running-in is:
Maximum 50 kmph speed upto 1000 km (vary the engine speed for better mating of parts).
The first free service at 500 ~ 750 km is most important. During running-in period all the engine components and
other parts will have set in. All adjustments to be restored, all fasteners to be tightened. Engine cum transmission oil
to be replaced. Timely performance of the first free service will ensure optimum service life and performance from
the engine.

Replacing the engine cum transmission oil during first free service is most important for better life of engine. Always use TVS
TRU4 PREMIUM oil (SAE 10W30 SL-JASO MA2) for better performance and life.
Since your motorcycle is fitted with Evaporative Emission Control System, the motorcycle should not be laid on the floor
during water wash. Else it may lead to difficulty in starting and improper running of the motorcycle.

 SAFE RIDING TIPS
SAFE RIDING RECOMMENDATIONS
Any two wheeler riding requires some precautions to be taken to ensure the safety of the rider, pillion and other road
users. These precautions are:
Familiarise yourself with new TVS Sport
Riding skill and your mechanical knowledge form the foundation of safe riding practices. We suggest you to practice
riding TVS Sport in a low-traffic condition until you are thoroughly familiar with your vehicle and its controls. Remember
practice makes you perfect.
Riding apparel
Loose, fancy clothing can be uncomfortable and unsafe when riding a two-wheeler. Choose good quality two wheeler
riding apparel.
Know your limits
Ride within the boundaries of your own skill at all times. Knowing these limits and staying within them will help you
to avoid accidents.

Two wheeler safety starts with wearing a good quality helmet. One of the most serious injuries that can happen is a
head injury. Always wear an ISI approved helmet that should fit your head comfortably and securely. You should also have
good quality goggles to protect your eyes and help your vision.
To prevent or minimize accident, never consume alcohol or drugs before or during the operation of your vehicle. Even minimal
consumption of these will affect the rider’s ability to control the vehicle.

Posture
Proper vehicle riding starts with proper posture.
One-hand riding is dangerous. Keep both hands firmly

and pedal, so as to enable fast action during panic
braking. Slow down to a safe speed before negotiating a corner.
4. Look widely instead of gazing at one point. If this is the first time that you are riding a vehicle of this
type, we suggest that you practice on a safe, open area

fatigue.
Cornering
When cornering, centrifugal force works in a direction
perpendicular to the direction in which the vehicle
is moving. Centrifugal force increases in proportion
with speed and the radius of the corner.
During cornering, reduce speed so as to lessen the
effects of centrifugal force. By all means, avoid abrupt
application of brake or sudden steering.

Using only the front or rear brake is dangerous and can
cause skidding and loss of control. Apply both the
brakes together and with great care on a wet road or
other slippery surfaces.

cause loss of rider control.

 MAINTENANCE
MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE
The maintenance schedule indicates the intervals between periodic services. At the end of each interval, be sure to
inspect, check, replace, adjust, lubricate and service as instructed. If the maintenance is not done periodically, it will
result in rapid wear and severe damage to the vehicle. If the vehicle is used under high stress conditions such as
continuous full throttle operation or if used / operated in dusty climate, certain jobs should be performed more often
to ensure reliability of the vehicle. Cylinder head, steering components, suspension, chain and wheel components
etc., are key items and require very special and careful servicing. TVS Motor Company Limited strongly recommends
that the jobs as per the maintenance schedule be performed by your TVS Motor Company Authorised Main Dealer /
Authorised Dealer.
Periodic inspections may reveal one or more parts that may need replacement. Whenever replacing parts on
TVS Sport, it is recommended that you use only the TVS Motor Company Genuine parts.

Proper running-in and maintenance are mandatory for making certain that your vehicle is reliable and gives optimum
performance at all times. Be sure that the periodic maintenance is performed thoroughly in accordance with the instructions
given in this owner’s manual.
In more dusty areas, the air filter element may required early replacement than the mentioned kilometers to avoid costly
damages to the engine.
