I want to purchase a scooter for my father. I am considering the Aprilia SR 125 and would like to know how its suspension is and whether it is a good choice to buy.

The Aprilia SR scooters have always prioritized sportiness over practicality, and the SR 125 is no different. As such, it has a stiff suspension setup, a thinly padded seat, and can feel cramped for larger folks. Plus, Aprilia's service network isn't the most widespread or hassle-free, and its after-sales cost is also on the higher side. We would recommend considering proven options from mainstream brands instead.

If you want to get a sporty scooter, the TVS Ntorq 125 is a great option that has an engaging ride without sacrificing practicality. In the family scooter space, you can't go wrong with any of these - Suzuki Access, Honda Activa 110 / 125, and TVS Jupiter 110 / 125. Take your father for a test ride of these scooters to see which one suits him best.

Kawasaki Z300 is launched in India at more than 3 lakhs. Do you think this makes sense and will people buy it?

Hi Autocar India, I am looking to buy a motorcycle up to around 2.5 Lakh. My usage will be quite limited. I do short drives of 500 meters, 6 times a day for 6 days a week. I also might do a 15km trip like 3 times a month. Most of the driving will be on really bad pothole-filled roads. So I don't want the vibration to be felt in my back. I want good suspension for bad roads. My height is 5 feet 8 inches and 75 kg. I want a vehicle which can be managed well by me.

Since you have an extremely short daily commute where fuel economy won't play a big role & you have a reasonably comfortable budget too, we'd recommend you look at the Royal Enfield Hunter 350. The Hunter is not a large motorcycle and will be easy to manage for someone of average build like yourself, and it has supple suspension as well as neutral ergonomics, which will make it comfortable over bad roads.Take a test ride of the Hunter, and if you find it comfy, go for it.

Hi, I am planning to purchase the new Dominar 400 (350) but since Bajaj is rolling out a new 5-inch TFT, Golden USDs and new colors in the bike, I am waiting for its update. Do you think that it is worth waiting for? What could be the expected launch time for the updated Bajaj Dominar 400 with the new 5-inch TFT?

It is reasonable to expect that the latest slew of updates to Bajaj's motorcycles will eventually make their way to the 350cc Dominar 400, although the brand has made no indication towards this actually being the case. Its platform sibling, the Pulsar NS400Z, recently received this same update as well. If you are planning to purchase the Dominar, we'd recommend you go ahead with your decision because there's no confirmed information regarding when the bike will receive these features and you could potentially be looking at rather a long wait.
