    Amazing scooter and superb customer service. I want to tell you the uses of active 125 cc. Activa it is not a scooter its a family member , if you r alone for work some marketing or huge material transfer to this place to another place the activa is the best option to take them anywhere.Scooter is very low sound when its start and riding is so smooth and sitting really good i enjoyed when i ride activa and seat is very comfortable for ladies and also gents so u can purchase activa. I will say this scooter not a scooter it is India ki dhadkan India ki scooter.

  • Very good scooter only heating problem

    6 years ago


    Shubham Das

    I have bought this scooter 7 days ago . It is very scooter pick up is very good . I can easily beat any 150 cc bike . It is giving me near about 43 kmpl mileage. It may increase after my first 2 service.

    The main problem about this is heating problem. I wish my dealer will fix this . I will strongly recommend you to buy this scooter.

  • Its worth every penny you spend

    5 years ago


    Krishnendu Banerjee

    In a sentence, activa 125 (dlx) is worth every penny you spend. I have been using it for the last two and half years and spent almost rs.86,000 to get it. I use it for daily commute as well as one-day trips. Buying was not a big hassle. Got it delivered within a month of placing the order. Its stylish looks, new design and front disk-breaks make this vehicle a perfect one for your daily rides. In addition, the 125cc het engine is probably the best available in the market fit into a scooter. It comes with 5 years of warranty and i don't think anything could happen to it. I have completed three long in-a-day rides (500kms+) and didn't find any issues — something you may struggle to see in a tvs or suzuki 125cc models. It's smooth, has good riding angles and reliable. The digital fuel meter will blink once you are down to just 1.4 ltrs. But don't go by it. In my experience, you can actually ride for another 35 kms max in that. Servicing: always go for authorised honda service centres but choose them very carefully. I have had a bad experience with the service guys at city honda, kalyan nagar, bengaluru. First of all, they charge too much beyond your free service and provide pathetic service. I found my scooter's screws not fitted at all on two occasions. Otherwise, parts are not very costly if you buy them from authorised retailers and not from the showrooms. It will save you over 80% cost. And yes, beyond you free service get an amc (annual maintenance contract). It will save you labour charge which honda charges too much. For example: servicing, oil change and break-wire change comes with rs. 1,200 labour charge. 600 for the parts and oil and 1200 for labour charge. Now, you can understand. Pros: reliable, comfortable, you can go on long trips without a doubt and powerful. Cons: despite all the pros, it has cons too. In its price range, the only thing it loses out is the suspension. The telescoping suspension will feel as microscopic compared to tvs and suzuki. The suspension is tough and not very comfortable on indian roads which feel like the surface of the moon. In addition, mileage is a bit of an issue. On long trips, it would give you somewhere between 50-60kmpl. But intra-city, it struggles. You will get somewhere around 35-45 depending on your ride quality. The other con, i would say, is its 5.3ltr fuel tank. In today's market, i think honda can afford a better fuel tank, at least 7ltrs.

  • Very nice and sliky look

    6 years ago


    Akash Bhadoria

    As from my sight this activa 125 cc is very nice looking, simple to handle as well as provides comfort to the rider and the pickup on traffic is very good and gives a mileage upto 52 to 55 kmpl from my thinking this is fabulous . Led indicator provide road view in different look. And cbs (combi brake system) provides instant stopping of scooty and port for usb charger is great.

    I have bought this scooter 7 days ago . It is very scooter pick up is very good . I can easily beat any 150 cc bike . It is giving me near about 43 kmpl mileage. It may increase after my first 2 service.

    The main problem about this is heating problem. I wish my dealer will fix this . I will strongly recommend you to buy this scooter.

  • Its worth every penny you spend

    5 years ago


    Krishnendu Banerjee

    In a sentence, activa 125 (dlx) is worth every penny you spend. I have been using it for the last two and half years and spent almost rs.86,000 to get it. I use it for daily commute as well as one-day trips. Buying was not a big hassle. Got it delivered within a month of placing the order. Its stylish looks, new design and front disk-breaks make this vehicle a perfect one for your daily rides. In addition, the 125cc het engine is probably the best available in the market fit into a scooter. It comes with 5 years of warranty and i don't think anything could happen to it. I have completed three long in-a-day rides (500kms+) and didn't find any issues — something you may struggle to see in a tvs or suzuki 125cc models. It's smooth, has good riding angles and reliable. The digital fuel meter will blink once you are down to just 1.4 ltrs. But don't go by it. In my experience, you can actually ride for another 35 kms max in that. Servicing: always go for authorised honda service centres but choose them very carefully. I have had a bad experience with the service guys at city honda, kalyan nagar, bengaluru. First of all, they charge too much beyond your free service and provide pathetic service. I found my scooter's screws not fitted at all on two occasions. Otherwise, parts are not very costly if you buy them from authorised retailers and not from the showrooms. It will save you over 80% cost. And yes, beyond you free service get an amc (annual maintenance contract). It will save you labour charge which honda charges too much. For example: servicing, oil change and break-wire change comes with rs. 1,200 labour charge. 600 for the parts and oil and 1200 for labour charge. Now, you can understand. Pros: reliable, comfortable, you can go on long trips without a doubt and powerful. Cons: despite all the pros, it has cons too. In its price range, the only thing it loses out is the suspension. The telescoping suspension will feel as microscopic compared to tvs and suzuki. The suspension is tough and not very comfortable on indian roads which feel like the surface of the moon. In addition, mileage is a bit of an issue. On long trips, it would give you somewhere between 50-60kmpl. But intra-city, it struggles. You will get somewhere around 35-45 depending on your ride quality. The other con, i would say, is its 5.3ltr fuel tank. In today's market, i think honda can afford a better fuel tank, at least 7ltrs.

    Akash Bhadoria

    As from my sight this activa 125 cc is very nice looking, simple to handle as well as provides comfort to the rider and the pickup on traffic is very good and gives a mileage upto 52 to 55 kmpl from my thinking this is fabulous . Led indicator provide road view in different look. And cbs (combi brake system) provides instant stopping of scooty and port for usb charger is great.

    Shreyansh Shah

    Amazing scooter and superb customer service. I want to tell you the uses of active 125 cc. Activa it is not a scooter its a family member , if you r alone for work some marketing or huge material transfer to this place to another place the activa is the best option to take them anywhere.Scooter is very low sound when its start and riding is so smooth and sitting really good i enjoyed when i ride activa and seat is very comfortable for ladies and also gents so u can purchase activa. I will say this scooter not a scooter it is India ki dhadkan India ki scooter.
