Honda Motors applied ‘Cobweb Strategy’ and incorporated ‘Fishbone Analysis’ in its ‘Signature Scooty’ – Honda Activa. This Scooty comes in two variants; Honda Activa Standard and Honda Activa Deluxe. All other features being equal, Honda Activa Deluxe, as the suffix suggests, comes with extra features. They are: 1) CBS and 2) Key Shutter. We will proceed to view the Deluxe model which is same as the Standard, sans the above two special features.
The exterior comes shrouded in colours like Pearl Sunbeam White, Metallic Black, Geny Grey Metallic, Force Silver Metallic, Purple Metallic, Candy Lucid Red etc. This model has a youth appeal and aerodynamic body and the CBS is fitted to control its aerobatic extravaganza.
Engine
CBS(Combination Braking System) vis-à-vis Engine Power:- The model boasts of a power of 8Bhp @ 7500 rpm with a decent torque of 9Nm @ 5500 rpm and is featured with 5.3L 4-stroke, single cylinders 109 cc air-cooled engine. This violent ‘tornado’ is bundled with CBS to check it at opportune time. You just have to apply the left lever (and not the right) and the Scooty turns tame even at higher speed and on any surface. The features of drum brakes and the left lever are designed to give this scooty ideal braking distribution. The moment you press the left lever, an equalizer provided in the suite will distribute the braking force equally to front wheels and rear wheels. Rear wheel will have a grabbing grip and the front wheel will also undergo moderate grip as the valves provided in the kit make sure that the distribution force to the front is proportionately cut and opportunely delayed giving importance to rear; all in all, Honda Activa stops there and then as dictated by you.
Honda Activa has been designed to features incorporating abrupt acceleration and sudden deceleration especially to cater to the Indian women. The weightage of the Scooty is also reduced by 4 Kg. allowing itself feasible to put on stand. CBS is practically built into the Scooty to get going of the ‘surface-friction co-efficiency’ theory. And, it really makes it a Deluxe. Add to it the masterpiece key shutter.
Features
