Gusto has some of the best features! I have been riding this scooter for the last 6 months and looks very stylish! Especially the seat adjusting feature is too good.
Suzuki Let’s is the best scooter It’s balance, braking system and looks unbeatable…… I test drive yesterday.
Gusto definitely looks like a better scooter than others. Thanks for this comparison make it so much easier for me to decide. Heard that it also has good ground clearance and engine performance. Going for a test ride soon.
Gusto is the best bike in the segment….seriously very smooth ride…will buy one soon….some serious promotion needs to be done….definitely will be the best seller
Suzuki Let’s is the best buy. Bought this for my dad who is 70 yrs Old and I have tested all other scooters from all manufacturers and at the end I found Lets to be the best. Drive it once to know the difference and mileage am getting is 55+km/lts. Its a new super refine SEP engine, tubeless tyres, larger wheelbase, light weight 98kg, slim, good looks, super pickup good for stunts, telescopic shockers, mobile charger etc. Just ride it once to feel the difference. Its been 2 months using it and I am happy about it.
