This is my first review:
To start with the review, I must confess that I won’t be interested in the technical stuff as I am not so keen on it. You may read about that in the other reviews which helped me to go for choosing ETERNO. What I would be writing is an experience of a COMMON MAN after using the vehicle for a month.
I bought this vehicle as a BIRTHDAY GIFT to myself, as incidently my bike got stolen the earlier month.
What made me to go for it :
HONDA : the name which talks of Quality, Assurance & Service.
My experience with Honda Activa that we own.
Luggage space below the seat as well as the front; something I was missing a lot on my bike.
Extra tyre, for longer journeys.
Mileage : 60 kms/lit in the first go. That is consistent too for a month. Only thing to note is I have used SPEED’93 petrol instead of usual Unleaded one which is under doubted eyes at present for the impurities.
Spacious seats : you know what my wife said after our first ride, ’’I didn’t know that a pillion can have this much comfort. Its like sitting on a Sofa.’’
But mind well, for male pillion who sits in the same direction of driver, the wider seat can give rise to aching thighs after a ride of 15+ kms. I had it.
Large leg space to keep my briefcase.
Last but not the Least : all these facilities in just 35, 000 /- ON ROAD.
I won’t complain of the HORN’s sound that is comparatively less than ACTIVA or any other bike. But it’s sufficient to make the people around you aware of your presence even in heavy traffic. We want to make them aware and not to scare them, isn’t it ?
But the compromise (?) that Honda has done with battery power, can make your headlight go dim if you lower your throttle.
But overall, IT’S A DREAM COME TRUE for me.
