TVS Flame 125SR




TVS Motors has launched the Flame under a new name, but the new Flame SR125 will omit the controversial twin-spark plug technology over which the Chennai-based company is locked in a two-year old legal battle with rival Bajaj Auto. The Supreme Court had issued an interim order allowing TVS to continue producing the Flame but had restricted the company from marketing them. The order comes on the back of an interim stay from the Madras High Court that had in effect Okayed TVS’ plans to manufacture Flame.

Bajaj claims that Flame will be an infringement of its patented twin-spark plug technology. TVS has countered this arguing that it is an old technology and that Bajaj had no patent claim over it.

Design

Cosmetically the Flame SR125 comes with a new graphics, color schemes accompanied by a fatter rear tyre. It embraces the contemporary black theme and borrows the headlamp, front fender, attractive rear view mirrors, body colored shock absorber springs and special engine cowl from its big brother apache.
