Trending Questions on Suzuki Bikes - Answered by Autocar Experts
Hello Autocar India. I have been using a Honda Activa 6G since 2002 and want to replace it with either a TVS Jupiter 113 or a Suzuki Access 125. I have been riding Honda scooters since 2006. Which scooter is a better replacement for me?
Both the TVS Jupiter 110 and the Suzuki Access 125 are good options to consider. The Jupiter is a more modern scooter and offers far more features than anything in its class. Also, it's very practical thanks to its huge 33-litre underseat storage area. The Access has all the strengths of a traditional family scooter, but it has peppy performance that will put a smile on your face during daily errands.
You can also take a look at the Honda Activa 125 since you are familiar with the Honda ownership experience. The bigger Activa is a smooth, comfortable, practical and fuel-efficient scooter which will also be reliable and easy to live with.
We suggest you take a test ride of all three scooters to see which one you find more comfortable.
I am a 47-year-old male (5 ft 9 in, 85 kg) looking to buy a long-term, reliable, strong and powerful scooter. My daily city commute is about 15-20 km, and my budget is up to ₹1.5 lakh. I am currently considering the TVS Ntorq 150, TVS Jupiter 125, Suzuki Access 125 and Honda Activa 125. Are there any other scooters I should consider? Please advise.
The TVS Ntorq 150 is the most powerful scooter in your shortlist, and it will also be the most fun to ride. It is also the most feature-packed, with a TFT display, Bluetooth connectivity, riding modes and a host of other features. The TVS Jupiter 125 is a more practical option, with plush ride quality and a huge 33-litre underseat storage space.
The Suzuki Access 125 is a family scooter with peppy performance that should be very reliable and fuel-efficient, too. The Honda Activa 125 doesn't have any one standout feature, but is a proven package you can't really go wrong with.
Take a test ride of all four so you can pick the one that best suits your needs.
Hello Autocar, I am looking to buy a bike for my daily commute of around 80 km, consisting of 60 km of highway and 20 km of city riding. I am confused between the TVS RTX, Hero Xpulse, and Suzuki V-Strom SX. Should I wait for the BMW 450 GS? I am looking for a comfortable and plush ride. P.S. I sold my FZ a year ago and am now looking to buy a new bike.
I am a regular Autocar follower and need your guidance in choosing my next motorcycle. The bike will be used mainly for city commuting, though not in heavy bumper to bumper traffic. I have previously owned an Activa and a Honda Unicorn. I am 36 years old, 5 feet 7 inches tall, and occasionally ride with a pillion and my children. I am not very focused on looks or features and am primarily looking for a comfortable, reliable motorcycle for long term ownership. Budget is not a constraint.
If you are open to the idea of a larger, premium machine, then bikes like the TVS Ronin, Royal Enfield Hunter 350 and Honda CB350 will be the options we recommend. If you want to instead go for a commuter bike, there are loads of great options in the 160cc space, such as the Honda Unicorn / SP160, Bajaj Pulsar N160, TVS Apache RTR 160 4V and Suzuki Gixxer.
Take a test ride of all the bikes you shortlist with a pillion to see what suits you best.
I have owned an Activa 5G since May 2019. My daily running is around 100 km, mostly in city traffic with a pillion. Which petrol scooter should I buy?
Since your daily usage is quite high and you also frequently travel with a pillion, we'll recommend you look at the Suzuki Burgman Street EX. With its spacious seats, well-balanced suspension setup, peppy yet fuel-efficient 125cc engine and 12-inch wheels at both ends, the Burgman EX will make for a good companion.
If you want to stick to 110cc scooters, we'd recommend the TVS Jupiter 110 because it comes with 12-inch wheels at both ends and has supple suspension, which will help you since you travel a lot with two people on board.
It also has a handy winged preload adjuster for the monoshock, which will help you tailor the suspension with added load easily.
Take a test ride of both these options before you decide.
I am a small businessman and currently do not own a bike or a car. I want to buy a scooter with a strong body so that I can ride with a pillion and also carry some luggage or bags on the floorboard. Is the TVS Jupiter 115cc or 125cc a good choice, or should I consider another brand or model? Please suggest. I am 6 feet tall and well built, so height is not a problem. My budget is ₹1 to ₹1.25 lakh. Thank you.
I am planning to buy my first bike with a budget of 2-2.5 lakh. I test rode the CB350RS, Meteor and Guerrilla 450. I didn’t find the CB350RS comfortable, the Meteor felt good but lacked highway power, and the Guerrilla 450 is over budget. I want a bike with a non-aggressive riding position and good comfort on highways and potholes. Please suggest suitable options.
Since this is your first bike, starting small and approachable would be the smart way to go about it. In that same vein, we would recommend the new Yamaha XSR155 because it is a light, comfortable, fuel-efficient machine that's also reasonably exciting to use.
If you want a larger machine, then bikes like the Honda CB300F, Bajaj Pulsar N250 and Suzuki Gixxer 250 would be good options.
Take a test ride of everything you shortlist before you decide.
Which scooter would you recommend for my daily usage of around 12-15km within Kochi city limits? There could also be a fortnightly ride of more than 20-25km. I am open to ICE, EV or hybrid options.
I am 31 years old and have been using a 2016 Jupiter for the last 9 years. I now want to shift to a mid-range bike around 150cc. My riding pattern is around 60km per day, five days a week, with about 70% normal traffic and the remaining in heavy traffic. Can you advise me on the best options available in Hyderabad with a mileage of around 45kmpl? I am 5'10" with a lean build. I have been riding a 2018 Gixxer (my cousin’s) for the last month and generally feel comfortable on it, though I experience slight lower back pain occasionally. Also, please advise on the XSR 155.
I have a 2012 Honda Activa that’s nearing re-passing. It still runs well mechanically, though the exterior has issues. I don’t want to sell it, but safety for my wife is a concern. Given its reliability, I’m unsure which scooter can match it. Please suggest the best alternatives.
