Comparatively improved

3.4

Driving experience is comparatively improved than previous models of activa as the suspension is more soft.Fuel economy has also been improved as bs6 complaint.The built quality of parts are now not sufficient as there are some glitches and unwanted noises are experienced, And the same is not solved in service also.

Mileage is good. It's not

Mileage is good.It's not comfortable, The suspension and design is really bad.You might not get back pain with this, But due to its balancing design, It becomes a problem in pillion rides.It gets really painful in tight traffic, Especially in your neck region.It's really really heavy and it always wants to fall if you don't hold it with your life.I have used activa 3g, Tbh that was the best activa in my experience.I even drove with 2 people behind me in traffic and it never gave me any pain, Suspension was smooth in that, The balance is also good, I've used it for 3 years and no problems.5g is a dense pain inducing machine compared to 3g.Please don't buy this, Not even rent.

Its an allround two wheeler

Its an all-round two wheeler that is to the likes of everyone whether be it the youngsters, Women or the elderly.Its best thing is the sweet, Smooth and a quite engine.The engine is very refined, The best in class in its category of two wheelers, With no vibrations felt and least noise considerably reducing riding fatigue.U can easily feel the difference if you ride any other scooter after riding the activa.As for braking, Its quite good and reassuring even with drum brakes.The bite from brake shoes is strong and the overall vehicle dynamics good enough to bring the scoot to a safe and quick halt without loosing composure even from high speeds.However everything is not good here, The area where the activa lags is the ride quality, Which is real nightmare if you have to move on broken and rough roads, The scoot is really going to rattle you.This is due to its meeker front end suspension and a stiff rear suspension set--up.The front suspension has a trail of only about 7cm, Out of which only 3 to 4 cm is available to taken on the sudden pothole or breaker impact.If the trail was about 9cm or more and wheelbase was slightly longer with a softer rear suspension, The things would have been much better, If honda could consider it.Another thing is styling, Which obviously is a matter of personal taste, Is rather conservative, Very unlike its elder siblings from kinetic-honda two decades back, Which were a real looker with striking and contemporary designs of its times.

Round scooter

Its an all-round scooter which is liked by everyone, Whether be it youngsters, Women or the elderly.The best thing about the scooter is its refined and relatively silent engine.There are no vibrations felt to the rider due to its smooth engine, Which considerably reduces the riding fatigue.You can feel this difference if ride any other scooter after riding the activa.As for braking, Its very reassuring and confidence inspiring, Even with the drum brakes.The bite from the drums is strong, And the vehicle dynamics good enough to bring the scoot to a safe and quick halt even from high speeds, Without losing any composure.However everything is not good here, The ride quality is terrible if you have to move over broken and rough roads, The scoot is really going to rattle you.This is due to its stiff rear and a meeker front suspension with only a trail of around 6.5 cm, Out of which only 3 to 4 cm is available to take on the impact of a sudden pothole or a bump.The things would have been much better if the trail was 9 cm or more with a slightly longer wheelbase and a softer rear suspension, If honda could consider it.As for styling, Its simply conservative, Very unlike its elder siblings from kinetic-honda two decades ago, Which were a real looker with their contemporary designs and high quality paint works.

It can hold a lot

4.6

it can hold a lot of weight and it will still keep on going. I weigh 100kgs and I use it to bring cow dung manure which also weigh 50 kg each sack..I usually take 1 sack and keep it in the footsack area and one in the passenger seat..so the combined weight is 200kg..it pulls up with minimal effort when we think about the weight...the built quality is awesome..but I don't prefer the front suspension because it doesn't offer a good ride and corner confidence when you ride hard
