It's A Good Choice Nowadays

I'll get straight to the point by stating some pros and cons of my Activa 125 which I bought in May 2023
.Pros:1.Engine is very refined. Performance gets better as you notch up more km in your odo2. Parts are easily available in many workshop garages with plenty of mechanics already experienced in repairing Honda Activa from the past years. A very trusted mechanic of mine says that Honda Activas are easiest to repair with less to no hassle in finding parts 3. Low maintenance cost.4.Good body built quality 5. Might not have the best acceleration compared to other scooters in this range but it sure does have a lot of strength riding uphill even while carrying passengers.Cons:1.Does not have the best suspension and gets bumpy unnecessarily which is also one of the reasons I say the scooty has a good body built quality cos if it were some other scooty, I'd have heard new creaks and sounds emerging from the body. The only slight problem is that both the front and rear brake levers have become loose which creates a rattling sound due to vibration as the scooty accelerates from idle speed or when it gets bumpy.No negative effect on brake performance though.2.Average mileage- it currently gives 46.7kmpl and I drive mostly on city roads.3.Led headlights could've been better. Cabin space is average, Not small but average 5.Other brands are giving much more advanced features at the same or lower prices like USB charging and cabin light. Conclusion: even with less powerful acceleration and the absence of additional features like USB charging etc.. I still opted for the Honda Activa 125 despite knowing all its shortcomings because no scooter has an engine that is as refined as it, Nor the reliable. You will get other scooters that have better like with more loaded features in the same price range or even lower but so far, I don't think there is any other scooty in the same price range that has a better engine or a reliable product quality a honda activa offers.
