I am planning to buy a new scooty and am looking for something lightweight with a low seat height. Which would be the best option in the 125cc segment? Please suggest.

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.

You can buy facino 125. I bought 2 one with disk break and one with drum break. I would suggest go with disk break if you have budget. I am getting overall 49.5kmph milage. It's comfortable to ride in city.

I'm planning to buy my first premium motorcycle and have a budget of around Rs. 3.1 lakh on-road. After a lot of research and multiple test rides, I've narrowed my options down to the Triumph Tracker 400 and the Triumph Scrambler 400 X. I'm looking for advice from owners or experienced riders who have spent time with either or both bikes. I've been riding motorcycles for around 7-8 years and this bike will be my primary motorcycle for at least the next 4-5 years. My usage will be approximately 70-80% city commuting to office and 20-30% rides during weekend with occasional long-distance trips of more than 250 km every 2-3 months. I will almost always have a pillion with me, so pillion comfort, suspension, and overall ride quality are very important factors. I enjoy riding but I'm not someone who rides aggressively all the time. I appreciate a refined, confidence-inspiring motorcycle that is also enjoyable on open highways. I'll be paying the full amount in cash so I'm looking for the best overall ownership experience rather than simply the cheapest option. During my test rides, the Tracker 400 felt lighter, more road-focused, and easier to ride in the city. It had a cowl so didn't get to check it with the pillion. The Scrambler 400 X engine felt somewhat the same but just a little toned down and not as aggresive as the Tracker given the higher power produced and better suspension. However, the braking was not as expected. My main concerns are related to finding more suitable bike for someone who rides mostly in the city but enjoys weekend touring. Which bike is more comfortable for both rider and pillion on longer rides? Does the Scrambler's taller suspension and larger front wheel become a disadvantage in daily city riding? Is the Tracker significantly easier to live with in traffic? Considering the fact that I'll own the bike for 4-5 years, which one offers the better overall ownership experience? I'd really appreciate insights from owners, especially those who have ridden both motorcycles or regularly ride with a pillion. Thanks in advance!

For your usage, where you regularly ride with a pillion both usually inside the city and occassionally on the highway, the Triumph Scrambler 400 X is the better option than its sibling, the Tracker. The Scrambler has a far more upright and commanding rider's triangle, is more spacious for both rider and pillion and its suspension comfort is also much better than the Tracker. Coming to the braking issue on the Scrambler, Triumph (not Bajaj) insists on equipping the bike with organic brake pads which don't have the same life or power as sintered units but its an easy fix. You can fit the sintered pads from any other 350cc Triumph onto the Scrambler and this will be an inexpensive and easy fix to your problem.
