Kinetic DX/ZX 100
Launched in 1986. Kinetic Honda, a joint venture between Kinetic and
Honda, brought to this country a modern scooter that boasted a 100cc two-stroke engine
fitted in the centre below the seat. It an electric starter, which is a new thing for us
and makes it easy for women to ride this scooter in addition to the benefit of a light
weight. It has an automatic gearbox, hence all a rider has to do is twist the accelerator
and let the scooter move forward. A refined scooter and a genuine effort to build in
convenience and comfort make it a favourite with both sexes in cities and towns. The ZX
model has striking new graphics on its front and side panels to make it look more
appealing. The biggest draw of these models was the large load area between the handle and
the seats. The rims are painted to match the two-tone colour of the scooter. Price will
always be the deciding factor between the two models. If the ZX falls within your budget,
you may think of buying the Marvel instead. |
