hi all,
We have decided to buy a gear less scooter for my daughter and after go through the specifications and review has decided to have a look to the available models in our town. The experiences shared as below :-
Honda - Visited to showroom for a test drive of Activa and I was surprise with the behaviour and attitude of the shworoom manager and staffs. May be they are more casual due to the predetermined customers who really want to buy only honda. If the attitude of the dealerships is so much casual then god knows what service they will tender once I buy the vehicle from them. Is this attitude prevails in all Honda dealers ??

Hence decided not to go with Honda Product.
Hero Motocorp - Daughter was interested for "pleasure" hence decided for a look of this scooter, When I along with my daughter reached the showroom though there were staffs available but no one bothered for us and all were busy for nothing and roaming here and there. Though there were two three customers are moving around and a bike was under delivery. hence decided to have a look on our own. Saw two pleasure one black and another one red along with plenty of dust. Has inquired about the TD but immediately there were refusal for the same with a casual approach "Now a days No body wants a test drive, pleasure sales on its own ". After meeting with the dealership manager he has arranged a TD with the scooter which was standing in the dealership. The Look of pleasure is good but TD is not really satisfactory. The feeling is riding a old horse though the handling is not so bad but the pleasure was not there. After going through the specifications have found that the brakes are of old pattern brake shoe, No telescopic shock observer etc. etc. The verdict from my daughter riding is not as good as Honda Activa .
TVS Suzuki - Reached at the show room, wow what a reception. The reception is alike when I went for a TD of my city along with wify and daughter. Its really impressive that despite of several customers they have treated us warmly and has offered a glass of chilled water in the scorching heat of UP. As 4 SR were busy to deal the customers the sales manager approached and asked our requirements. The scooter has
WEGO a good stylish look along with a outside fuel filling facility which is really a positive for this type of scooters. Telescopic shocker, 12" Tyre looks impressive. My daughter opted for the test drive and was satisfied with the balancing as well as ground reach of the scooter. As the engine is in the middle of the chassis hence they are claiming this is the best in its class for balance there fore the driving is more easy in compare to others. I too found the pickup is good enough as well as its sailing very smoothly and braking is really fantastic. The show room price quoted 52K.
Yamaha - As the show room was closed due to Sunday hence not able to TD the vehicle RAY.
Now i like to have the experts opinion before decide the scooter.
WEGO VS RAY
TVS OR YAMAHA.....
which will be the best suited for us as this scooter will be mainly drive by my daughter and obviously I will take for a ride on the week end for **** and bits.
