All-new 100cc Engine
At the heart of Shine 100 ticks an all-new 100cc OBD2 compliant PGM-FI engine, boosted by
Enhanced Smart Power (eSP) which optimizes energy output by maximizing efficient combustion
and minimizing friction with a smooth eco-friendly engine. This new 100cc engine is light weight and
efficient with the finest innovation producing optimum performance, enhanced maneuverability, and
class leading mileage delivering highest value to customers. External fuel pump fitted outside the
fuel tank reduces the maintenance time as it is easily accessible.
1. Programmed Fuel Injection (PGM-FI): The system uses onboard sensors to constantly inject
optimum fuel and air mixture which aids consistent power output, high fuel efficiency & less
emissions.
2. Friction Reduction: The piston cooling jet reduces friction & maintains optimum engine
temperature. The offset cylinder and use of rocker roller arm further reduce the frictional loss which
not only helps in smooth and better power output, but also improves fuel efficiency.
3. The Solenoid Valve: acting as an automatic choke system ensures rich air fuel mixture and
provides the convenience of one time start at any point of time.
Supreme Comfort and Convenience
The long and comfortable seat (677mm) provides ample space for rider and the pillion riding to
ride long distances with comfort. Be it family or utility-based rides, seating posture of Shine 100
ensures unmatched comfort and makes it the best choice for fatigue free daily commuting. Shine 100
has a uniquely designed tank and a narrow leg opening angle, giving the rider an excellent knee
grip.
The riding position has been designed keeping in mind family comfortable riding and load carrying.
The optimum seat height (786mm) allows easy ground touch for average height Indian riders. The
specially developed suspension unit with long stroke manages any kind of road conditions with ease.
It’s ability to absorb the vibrations on rough surface gives extra stability and confidence to the rider
and pillion.
Side Stand with Engine Inhibitor prevents engine start while the side stand is engaged enabling a
convenient and carefree ride. Making every ride on the Shine 100 comfortable and convenient, is the
Combi-Brake System (CBS) with Equalizer.
Maximum Utility
Light weight durable steel frame contributes to overall lower vehicle weight. It gives a soft
steering feel and excellent maneuverability. Durable & tough frame is suitable for variable road
conditions and supports carrying load. Handling the vehicle on narrow roads is made easy with small
turning radius of 1.9 meters which is class leading in this segment. Excellent gradeability allows
Shine 100 to easily climb inclines even while carrying heavy loads.
Long Wheelbase (1245 mm) and high ground clearance (168mm) make it stable at higher
speeds and bad road conditions inspiring rider confidence.
Elegant Style
Enriched design inspired by India’s favorite Shine125, the Shine 100’s overall graphic theme
compliments the elegance of the motorcycle. The appealing front cowl, all black alloy wheels,
practical aluminum grab rail, bold tail lamp and sleek distinguished muffler compliment
smooth style of the motorcycle.
