I have an old activa and this new activa also and I seriously like the old one.it is rightly said old is gold as it has metallic body and now it is a fiber body and new activa consumes more petrol as it gives average of 40 to 50 kms/litre and my old activa gives 50 to 60 kms/litre.and old activa is more comfortable, reliable and durable.and safe as body of old activa is strong.new activa has only looks and nothing else
