Honda Navi : Detailed Review

With the convenience of a scooter and stance of a motorcycle, the Honda Navi is unlike anything you’ve seen or ridden in India before.

The wait has been long, but the new Honda Navi has proved to be worth it. It’s not every day that two-wheeler manufacturers take a chance to offer something completely out of the ordinary. Especially, when we’re taking about traditional companies like the Honda Motorcycle and Scooter Limited ( HMSI) . And its days like this, when motorcycle enthusiasts like you and me have hope when we wake up in the morning.
Honda Navi is a surprisingly radical approach by HMSI, which combines the best of both scooters and motorcycles in a two-wheeler. So look closer and you’ll recognize plenty of parts borrowed from various motorcycles and scooters Honda sells in India. We’re not sure if Honda has coined a name for the segment that this puny looking motorcycle-scooter mix would fall into. How does Moto-Scoot sound? Not surprisingly, on Honda’s official website the Navi is neither listed under the scooter section nor the motorcycle or Superbike tabs, but the company has decided to dedicate a new section simply named – Navi.
It’s 5.25am and we’re already at the shoot location – curious, excited and can hardly wait to get a go on the new Honda Navi. These are feelings that are usually associated with much larger sportsbikes, but Honda has managed to generate the right hype round this super-compact moto-scoot which packs a tiny 110cc motor whisking out 8PS power and 9Nm of torque. Oh! And neither does it have any gears. Just a CVT to power its 10-inch rear wheel.
