        Good overall. I have used it for the last 7-8 years. It is a good experience. Mileage is low, but body metal is very good and engine performance is good. Honda Activa is a good bike.

        The Standard bike is really good in every aspect. The mileage is excellent, and it is easy to ride. The spare parts and maintenance are also satisfactory. It gives a good average, making it a great choice for anyone looking for a reliable bike on a low budget. I purchased it myself, and I am very happy with it.
