I own a 7-9 month old dio.
Nothing out of the world
Underpowered engine
Doesnt carry my mom and dad with conviction
My dad always complain about its lack of power
Milege is a paltry 30-32kmpl...
Added to that I wonder who designed the rear foot panels....
Are they there to give some stretching excercise.....
They are one of the most awkwardly placed foot rests on any machine in India.....2002 - Pulsar 150 Classic (Still owned)

Less mileage depends on lot of factors. Riding conditions, the way one rides the bike, regular service of the bike, and tuning of the bike.Originally posted by snehil View Post
If you feel the bike is running good and service at required intervals has been done, then check the riding habit. Try to ride most probably around 40-50 kmph which will give the max mileage. The acceleration should be linear and not sudden bursts.
If the bike is not serviced properly, immediately do so.

Bro its my dad who drives it.
Prior to this scoot, i had an eterno which gave some engine related issues within 8k kms and 2 years (under warranty)...
I did not meant anything about the scoots performance, Its more to do with the lack of power while lifting loads and climbing uphill....!2002 - Pulsar 150 Classic (Still owned)
