Design: Design is not so important for a commuter segment bike. But these three bikes got attractive and stylish graphics and body designs. Suzuki Hayate will be slightly ahead in this category. The special edition of this bike looks eye-catchy and well painted. The build-in quality of this bike is also better than its rivals. Hero Splendor iSmart and Honda Livo are also good. But their color variant and design are not so good as Suzuki Hayate. And they should improve their build quality also.
Engine Performance: Engine performance is the most important part of a motorcycle. So let’s find out which one of these bikes gets better engine performance than others.
Suzuki Hayate: This bike is powered by an Air-Cooled, 4-Stroke, 1-Cylinder, SOHC, 112.8cc displacement engine which can generate 8.3 bhp maximum power at 7500 rpm and 8.8 Nm torque at 5500 rpm. The 4-speed gearbox will help to get better transmission.
