Sitting on the Dio, the controls are simple and easy to read. The speedo reads to a maximum speed of 60kph, and the Dio can get there on a flat road, no problems. The seat is long and flat allowing a wide range of riders to sit comfortably on the scooter, but there is no pegs, or handles for a pillion passenger – which is good as the standard rear shock wouldn’t cope very well.

The Honda’s body work made of plastic and while it is light it does have a down side. Rattles – at idle on the tested model there was quite a bit of vibration this could have been due to wear on the engine mounts, but it does seem to a common characteristic of many Japanese 50cc bikes. Some might find this annoying, but it doesn’t take long to forget about it if you’re riding it on a daily basis.

Cheap – But is it? The cash outlay on a second hand Honda Dio is very low for almost everyone. Hence high number you’ll see parked out side the local university. But what you get is great value. It is a solid scooter that will get you around town, quickly, reliably and with minimal cost.

So if you’re looking for a cheap, light, easy to ride little run around, that doesn’t force you to the side of the road due to its lack of speed then you should definitely look at a second hand Honda Dio. One of the greatest Japanese 50cc scoots around.

Just got a Dio here in Japan. It is illegal here to ride a bike under 50cc here with a passenger, so you don't find any bikes under 50cc with pegs for the passengers.

What shocks do your recommend for upgrading the back. I am 100kg and the dio still has plenty of zip ( and it was illegal and impossible for me to get a 125cc scooter because they check your licnece at time of purchase.) but I would like a bit more spring to manage those potholes. How much are new suspensions springs and are they easy to change?

I own a Hondio Dio 1 with a Dio 2 engine. You will surely get value for your money on this scoot! For those having problem with the engine switching off when it gets hot is try to mix 2 stroke motor oil in the gasoline tank once you fill up. this will greatly help lubricate the friction of the piston and block.
