Hi, I am planning to buy a new 125cc bike for my daily commute. My daily usage will be around 15-20 km.

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.

If you want the lightest 125cc scooter, look no further than the Yamaha Fascino / RayZR models. Both weigh under 100 kilos and have low 780-785mm seat heights, making them very friendly and approachable. They also come from a reputed brand like Yamaha and should be hassle-free and affordable to own. If you want to consider a product from a different brand, look no further than the hugely popular Suzuki Access. At 106-107kg, the Access is still very light and with its low 770mm perch, most people should be able to handle this scooter. The Access is also frugal yet has a peppy motor and in its latest gen it is quite hard to fault. In fact, the top 2 variants even come with ABS making it the only one of the mainstream 125cc Indian/Japanese options to offer this feature.Take test rides between these proven products and make your decision based on whichever one you gel with more.

One of the lightest ICE scooters in India is the TVS Zest 110, which weighs just 102kg and has just a 760mm seat height, attributes that should make it very approachable for those vertically challenged. Even popular options like the Honda Activa, Suzuki Access and TVS Jupiter are manageable in terms of weight, weighing between 105-106kg and low seat heights ranging between 760-780mm. These should also be easy to manage while being more feature rich than the Zest, which is now a fundamentally very old product.Since you're keen on getting a scooter that's easy to manage, take test rides of all four before you make your decision.
