Re: Activa vs Jupiter vs Duet - which one to buy ?

Am also confused between Honda Grazia and new Suzuki access 125 . Prime requirement is comfortable ride in bad pathole roads

Re: Activa vs Jupiter vs Duet - which one to buy ?

From threads...I am reading a lot of overheating issue in Access 125....so avoid it ? ...Grazia ..no idea...

Re: Activa vs Jupiter vs Duet - which one to buy ?

My two cents - do not go for a new model which has just been launched(like Grazia).
While Jupiter has more features(larger wheelbase, more storage space, telescopic suspension), the engine for Activa is smoother(Honda engine).
The Access has smoothest engine among these three but again the overall build quality won't inspire confidence.

Jupiter should be the choice for you if you consider all the practicalities.



P.S. Give a test ride to Fascino before finalizing - your list might get longer and for good!

Re: Activa vs Jupiter vs Duet - which one to buy ?

We purchased Grazia week back. And we had Access 125, 2015 model. To start with, if you want good power and pick up, go for access 125. We used it for 2 n half years, and never felt it lacked power or never felt vibrations.

As for the Grazia. It also has 125cc but pick up is not as quick as access 125. Grazia is made of fiber and plastic. Unfortunately, it is not good quality at all. You can give just little thumb pressure on front panels, and it will flex and there is also a gap in panel joints. Even under the tail light, plastic is thin and soft, not sturdy and properly aligned or fitted at all. The glove box thing for the cellphone charging point is pointless. The cover is flimsy, if you are little stronger, you can hold and tear it apart that's how soft it feels. I don't think I will even be using it for fear of breaking it. LED headlights are decent, but again not bright enough to justify the cost. Overall, I would say, grazia looks good, it has a good engine but built quality is big big letdown and simply doesn't justify its cost. I only bought it because my father liked the look and I didn't want to confuse him.

I would suggest you to go for access 125 or even activa. They are better built. If you like the looks and won't mind compromising quality of build or rattles which will come with time, than go for grazia.

Re: Activa vs Jupiter vs Duet - which one to buy ?

Took a test ride of Access 125 and loved the pickup and looks..Jupiter feels less powerful as compared to Access....Now only two test rides to be taken...Grazia and Activa 125.....seems the competition is between Activa 125 and Access 125 now...

Re: Activa vs Jupiter vs Duet - which one to buy ?

In my opinion the small change in pick up or noise is always compromisable for ride comfort and handling the jupiter gives you , given the area in which scooter will be used.
