Booking:
When I had booked the vehicle, they said it takes 60days for delivery after booking(may be because of high demand),
if u need it in 30-35 days then youve to pay entire amount on the 1st day itself.
Here is the Detailed price breakdown which I paid for:
38, 770(Actual Vechicle price)
+4, 850(12.5% VAT)
+1, 090(1yr insurance)
+3, 840(Road Tax)
=48, 550 (On Road)
49, 140(inc Vehicle Registration & number plate)
51, 080(inc standard accessories package)
Apart from this(Rs51, 080) I had to pay Rs150 as commission to the salesman.
They didnt take Bank pass book or company HR letter(which ur working in)as address proof, as per RTO rules, u can either go for making affidavit for Address proof, they offered it for Rs400.
Good thing is that we got Test Ride as soon as we entered the Showroom. The vehicle was really good in my first impression. Also he said that the RC book will be provided in the form of smart card within 45days of delivery.
Delivery:
I payed entire 51, 080 on the 1st day of booking, and had to wait for 34days for delivery. Registration had been done.
During delivery make sure petrol tank is enough to reach the nearest petrol bunk, as in my case the vechicle ran out of petrol even before travelling 4kms, had to pull the vechile till the petrol bunk.
The documents issued included:
1.Insurance Document
2.Lifetime Road Tax Receipt, issued from RTO
3.Tax Invoice(vechicle Bill), issued from suzuki showroom
4.Teflon coating free service coupon(only if u opted for teflon coating as accessories)
5.owners manual(which includes all 12 service coupons, Battery warranty card and warranty registration card)
Two bike keys, First Aid box and Repair Kit box are also included in the package.
Accessories:
I opted for standard accessory set with pricetag of Rs 1, 940. It includes the following:
Seat Cover(Rs180), Buzzer(60), All round guard(510), Front beeding set(460), Bumper(170), Mud Flap(50), Grip cover(60), Teflon Coating(450).
Other Accessories includes: Steel Basket(210), Foot mat(100), stepney cover(25), Body cover - TEXO(280), Helmet Lock(200), Access windscreen(350).etc.!
Vechicle
Performance:
Suspension and millege is better in access, also it has more power and pickup, storage space is good and has 6lts petrol tank.
As im driving it since few days, it has been very comfortable in riding, u can easily ride 60kmph in a 5-10 sec time hassle free. Since it is new engine I havent tried above 65kmph.
I have never ride activa, so I cannot compare it with access in terms of riding styles.
u can tilt the handle 45 Degrees on either side(i think it should be same with all scooters).
There is a noise coming out from the engine as u cross 50-55kmph(might be common with other 2-wheers also).
Front suspension is good, rear suspension makes u jump if u ride without pillion rider. Power is enough to overtake any scooter, even sometimes other 125CC bikes and 4-wheelers.
I had ride the vechicle continuosly for 25km twice, without any trouble.
Self start always started on 1st attempt, never tried the kick start.
Since it has a very good pickup, should be little careful when u give throttle from Zero speed.
Ill keep updating once it completes 1st service.
Happy Safe Riding.!
