Factors To Consider Before Buying Xoom 125

• The 14-inch wheels and longer wheelbase make it very stable at high speeds and planted in corners. But, it may feel slightly less nimble than competitors like the TVS Ntorq 125 when navigating through very tight traffic. 
• Some testers find the acceleration lacks the aggressive zing that’s expected from a sporty scooter. 
• The suspension is tuned to be firm to support its sporty DNA. This provides great control on smooth roads, but can feel harsh over sharp bumps or potholes unless carrying a pillion.
• The seat height is a manageable 777mm, but the wide seat profile might make it difficult for riders under 5'6" to plant both feet flat on the ground. 
• Taller riders (over 5'10") should check if the handlebar hits their knees during sharp turns. 
• The 17-liter under-seat space fits a small full-face helmet but has limited room for additional items.
