Activa waiting period is huge and so is Aviator

Go for
Access. It is a Great scooter.

Also consider the Wego.

Consider Honda aviator......it has has got bigger wheels than activa+alloy wheels+telescopic front shock absorbers+disc brakes....it has also got smooth refined engine..typical HONDA.....mileage must be around 50kmpl..... lighter than activa...

Apart from mileage, Access is a better scooter than its competition.

But consider it if you have a good service backup of Suzuki in your area.
