The LIVO gets the same engine with the same power output as the CB Twister it replaces. The air cooled 109.19cc engine that produces 8.25bhp and 8.63Nm of torque is a four stroke engine and gave an economy of around 70kmpl in the CB Twister, Honda claims the LIVO will give 74kmpl on “Honda Mode” with the LIVO.
With a 1285mm wheelbase and a ground clearance of 180mm, the LIVO also has an 8.5 litre fuel tank. The drum brake variant gets 130mm sized drum brakes at the front and rear, while the Disc brake gets a 240mm disc at the front with the same drum on the rear wheel. All housed on a diamond frame the front suspension is a Telescopic fork the LIVO now has a spring loaded hydraulic at the back instead of the swingarm mono suspension from the CB Twister.
Y. S. Guleria, Sr. VP, Sales and Marketing, HMSI said “Honda’s LIVO is a perfect fit to fulfill the dreams of aspirational first time biker. It features one of the longest wheelbase in the segment and a higher ground clearance for any practical and comfortable usage on all types of Indian roads.
The LIVO gets black painted alloys with tubeless tyres sized 80/100 R18. The motorcycle also gets a self button start. The LIVO is available in Athletic Blue, Pearl White, Sunset Brown and Black available on both variants.
Guleria mention that the 100-200cc motorcycle segment went down by 7pc in the past 3 years; the company has a market share of 6pc. He also mentioned that HMSI has 14pc of the total motorcycle segment in India. A segment that Guleria said is “Under Stress” and the 110cc segment is shrinking, does it make sense to re place a 110cc motorcycle with another 110cc bike?
