I wish it would go touring but isn't it too closer for the handle bar towards the body to use it for a comfortable touring??? Who ever rode it will know better

[@sjps1]

For touring purpose I think aprilia Sxr160 is better than aerox as it has 160cc engine, 15mm higher ground clearance, 7 lit fuel tank, flat floor board (easy to carry more luggage), flexible footrest ( suitable for long tour), dedicated grab rail etc..

[@zeus7251]

A scooter in India is majorly seen as a multi function utility, we use it to carry bags, groceries even cylinders. From that perspective, only some will be buying it and it also has a smaller tank for going on a long drive or something. For this price, there are so many good bikes available as well with much better feature sets. So I think its for some specific user base only.

If you think of it as just a scooter next door.. it's definitely going to feel expensive.. But when you look at it in isolation, I think it packs in fantastic value for money. There is nothing like the Aerox in our market. It looks fab, packs a lot of punch and quality levels are also top drawer. Spending equivalent or a little more money can get you a 200cc or for that matter Yamaha's own FZ25 bike. But, the sense of individuality and the exhilarating performance from the R15 derived Liquid cooled, 4 valves, VVA engine mated to a CVT.. is for sure going to feel very very special.

[@powerdriftofficial]

Exactly. Look at it objectively. And test ride it with that mindset too.

I think it should be compared to the SR160(not the SXR) if we're looking at scooters. But realistically, both the SR and the aerox are more so motorcycles with the convenience of a scooter, so in addition to the SR, I think this should be compared to the gixxer 150 which is more or less in the same price bracket and will provide a decent point of comparison to the other 150cc commuters.

Yayyy you did again... Thanks for the fair review. I have test ride this last week and felt the same with ride quality and balance.

From pics I liked grey some extent with red alloys and the aerox in red on While X panel is looking good. In black we miss the Aerox lettering and in blue its on gey which is not getting elevated. Let me see Grey in daylight to comment more. Please do compare with Ather 450x as they both fall in same price bracket and scooter segment. I test ride both on the same day and both are equally good, I am not able to decide which one to buy. BTW did Yamaha manufacturig Aerox in India or getting this imported as CBU.
