I want to buy a 125 cc scooter for daily commute, sometimes I also travel with a female member of my family as a pillion. Mileage is also of some importance to me. Further, I also want a good ride quality as I have some issues with back pain. I like Ntorq Race XP the most, but the problem with it is that it does not have ample space for 2 and lacks mileage. New Access, I have heard that it has 10-inch rear wheels and a very stiff suspension, which hampers the ride quality in the city. The new burgeman also has the same problem. Jupiter 125 has less mileage but good suspension, but most of the users are reporting rattling of the body after just 1 or 2 years of use. Please suggest the best 125 cc scooter I can buy as per my needs Good ride quality Decent mileage Decent space for 2 people to commute
We're not sure where you're getting your information from, but the Access and Burgman definitely don't have 'stiff' suspension that will hamper ride quality inside the city. On the contrary, especially so with a pillion, the Access and Burgman have some of the best seating and suspension comfort in the 125cc space. The Suzuki scooters also have rather frugal engines, and when ridden sensibly, you should see 45-50kpl, if not more.
The TVS Jupiter 125 is another great option to look at with its spacious seat and plush suspension, and one unique feature it has is that its monoshock comes with a handy winged preload adjuster, which makes it easy to tune the suspension based on the load you're carrying on the vehicle. Coming to the matter of rattling body panels, this may be the case on some isolated units, which may not have been maintained properly and doesn't seem like a widespread, routinely reported one.
We'd advise you to disregard whatever misconceptions you may have about these scooters and instead take test rides of all three before you make your decision.
