With a smaller 109.51cc engine, some Honda Livo owners say that their bike can match or, in some cases, even outpace some 125cc bikes in urban riding. This has provoked debates regarding whether engine displacement itself is a good indicator of real-world performance, particularly in stop-and-go traffic and crowded city streets. But supporters say the Livo's lighter weight, responsive throttle, and well-tuned gearing mean it can get up and go quickly and maneuver easily, despite a lack of power. The skeptics say that you can't deny the laws of physics, and a 125cc bike will always have an advantage in outright performance. The conversation frequently revolves around rider skill, traffic conditions, and torque vs. horsepower in real-life riding situations.
