Not daily usage. my main consideration:

1. Can fit helmet in seat. Better 2 helmet with installation of box..

2. Small to navigate through traffic.

3. Not for daily use or far travel. Just around the town

4. Budget less than 10k or around that.

5. Reliable and low maintenance.

A low mileage, used 2019 and later years Honda PCX150 should be able to fullfil your critireas, and it is not a thief magnet (which may be another plus point)

It has big seat storage to fit full helmet? Or need buy small helmet?

What are the disadvantages of the bike that I should take in mind?

I read in a blog says scooter tires cannot punchet? That's so cool.. stil remember 20 years ago tire punchet need push the bike 😅

Yamaha NMax 155, SYM Jet X (both available brand new). Honda PCX150 has been replaced with Honda ADV150.

I read in blog adv is not really cheap right? At least 15k?

Scooter has less top speed than moped of same engine capacity, the only disadvantage to me. Pickup is better on scooter (traffic light winner) compared to non-modified moped.

Scooter tyres get punctures too.

The maintenance for scooter is need more parts servicr? Other than oil and filter still need what other?

I have been using yamaha avantiz 125 for a few years. Very reliable, no issues at all. It can fit 1 open face helmet, I use Givi cielo 30.1. Max speed is 95 km/h, fuel is some 2.5 litre per 100 km. Maintenance is oil every 2000 km and gearbox oil every 4000, the rest is by usage or by owner’s manual timing.

I think for your usage this scooter is good enough. Can find second hand at good price, I paid 4.5K in 2018.

Sounds fit my purpose. I prefer new one. Let me ask dealer see how much
