Kinetic Honda DX was my second vehicle, which I still use for about 6-7 years now.
I understand that Kinectic wanted to scrap this model when they launched Kinetic marvel, but they could not do it due to its immense popularity. It is still in production with many improvements in engine, suspension & looks.
KH DX is 100cc, variamatic drive and used to give an average of 25-30km/litre, recently I have not checked it.
The front leg space is very useful to keep luggage or to accomodate a nice expensive silk saree of the lady who drives it. Thus very well liked by housewives & even young crowd.
The earlier models had very low chasis and thus the scooter invariably bumps on every speed breaker in the city. The wide seat is comfortable for pillion rider and suspension is also OK. The scooter rides smooth at higher speeds over 50kmph, but not without a helmet.
The body starts rusting at mud guards and footrests. The lighting is good, the horn is good too.
The new variants must be much improved than the one which I have.
Let me read some reviews on them at MS, if they are there.
