    Best and all rounder scooter 

    The Honda Activa 125 is a perfect companion on all rides . It is a popular and reliable 125cc scooter known for its smooth ride, fuel efficiency, and spacious storage. This offers good acceleration for navigating city traffic and can manage moderate highway speeds. It is not liked by my father as single-channel ABS is not currently offered on the Honda Activa 125 . While sufficient for city riding, the acceleration and overall power might be less exciting for riders seeking a very sporty experience.

    Smooth biking 

    After owning the Honda Activa 125 for over six months now, I feel sufficiently qualified to share my thoughts on this popular scooter. One of the standout features is the silent start system, which makes city rides pleasantly quieter.While riding, I appreciated its smooth handling and the decent mileage it offers averaging about 50 to 55 km/l. The digital analog meter and the side stand engine cut off feature are practical touches that enhance daily usage convenience. However, the scooter is on the heavier side with a weight of about 111 kg, which can make maneuvering through tight spots a bit tough.
