    Re: Activa Troubles Want to Upgrade

    I was on a lookout for scooty for my dad and myself 8 months ago. Tried all big scootys, as im 6' in height and chose jupiter. I have clocked 5000kms on it now, trouble free and with very good service center here in panvel. Few points for the jupiter after using it daily.
    1. Handling, its amazing, only the wego and suzuki swish comes close.
    2. The ride is composed over broken patches, and the big wheels help here. Full marks for suspension.
    3. I use the pass switch everytime. Its a must have feature which isnt present on any scooter.
    4. There is a provision of adding mobile charger which i have opted for, and it has helped in emergency.
    5. I never come off the scoot for filling fuel, just turn around and open the key. Very very convenient. Filling fuel in other scoots after using this will feel like a chore.
    6. Fuel efficiency of about 50-55 in sedate riding.
    7. Service centre is very good, they give followup calls, and after that some guy from tvs calls me to ask about service experience everytime.
    Overall, i feel this scooty is really good in 110cc segment with sorted handling.
    Motorcycling heals, big time...

      Go for Yamaha as service center is very near and its scooter is also well received. As per my experience TVS service centers are very bad. Suzuki is an all rounder thou, didn't hear much issues in its bikes and scooters (my friends own Gixxer, Swish and Access).

          Hi Folks,

          Any news or update regarding Yamaha's new scooter? Found something like Nozza Grande with front fuel filler, alloy wheels, disc brake etc but not sure when the launch will happen. Any heads up on this? Please suggest

            I don't think Yamaha will launch a new scooter soon. Ray and Alpha are doing well. They might introduce a scooter in Indonesia by not here.

                That's some news. Let's keep our fingers crossed.
