Ok. For a 125cc engine segment keeping too much expectation would be unfair. These are usually commuter class motorcycle engines with a decent power package. Speedometer peaks around 99 to 102 kmph with vibrations above 80/85 kmph although its not so annoying. Decent acceleration as well. Fuel consumption says 50 km or a lil more for a litre.
But to say mileage depends a lot on traffic and riding styles. Good riding positions and control plus handling for a person with normal height but not short. Shock absorbers prove their worth in Indian roads with 2 on board. Now few negatives as per my experience:
Gear shifting sometimes is not pleasant. Although the parts used are of high quality but Honda should definitely look into its gear shifting mechanisms. At times the carburetor auto tunes to high. But I believe it is easily fixable. Although the electric start works well but not very reliable. Need for a kick starter as battery tends to weaken up eventually and may trouble specially during winters. Need to develop a better mud guard for rear wheel as it gets very untidy for the rider and passenger during rains.
