Harley-Davidson Fat Boy vs Honda Activa 125
ESTIMATED SIMULATION
Run the comparison →The Harley-Davidson Fat Boy (2025) and the Honda Activa 125 (2025) are compared with the same Moto Kıyas physics model under identical conditions: flat dry asphalt, no wind, a 75 kg rider and no passenger. The Harley-Davidson Fat Boy is a cruiser with 1,923 cc, 103.3 hp and 315 kg; the Honda Activa 125 is a scooter with 124 cc, 8.3 hp and 107 kg. Power-to-weight with the rider: 264.8 hp/ton versus 45.7 hp/ton. On this measure the Harley-Davidson Fat Boy is 480% ahead.
In the simulation the Harley-Davidson Fat Boy covers 0-100 km/h (speedometer) in 3.54 s and the Honda Activa 125 in 36.16 s; the Harley-Davidson Fat Boy is quicker by 32.62 s. In the 60-0 km/h brake test, braking distance without the 0.3 s reaction time is 17.7 m for the Harley-Davidson Fat Boy (ABS unknown, class assumption: no ABS) and 17.9 m for the Honda Activa 125 (ABS unknown, class assumption: no ABS). The Harley-Davidson Fat Boy stops 0.2 m shorter. The standard 60-0 test is used because one calculated top speed is below 110 km/h. Calculated top speed: 201 km/h (estimated from power and drag) versus 90 km/h (manufacturer claim).
All values are an estimated simulation, not road-test measurements. Technical data comes from the sources listed below; the model uses class-average calibration (no accepted model-specific road test) for the Harley-Davidson Fat Boy and model-specific parameters calibrated against published road tests for the Honda Activa 125.

Data sources and calibration
Specifications: the sources below (manufacturer pages, plus road-test or spec sites where the manufacturer gives no figure). Acceleration, braking and top speed: Moto Kıyas physics simulation (power/torque curve, gearing, drag, traction and wheelie limits, ABS assumption), calibrated against published road tests where available. Estimated, not measured.
