Premium Commuter
#2 Ranked
Built on a robust diamond-type frame, the HONDA SP 125 offers a highly stable and composed chassis for daily riding. The overall kerb weight of 116 kg gives the motorcycle excellent highway composure without compromising low-speed maneuverability. Its robust hardware and high-quality body panels ensure long-term durability and premium street presence.
Maintenance Tip
Check engine oil levels every 1,000 km to prevent internal friction damage. Clean the drive chain periodically and lubricate it for optimal gear transmission.
At the heart of the machine is a high-torque 10.8 PS motor that responds instantly to throttle inputs. It achieves a maximum speed of 90 km/h, ensuring swift overtaking on city bypasses and expressways. Telescopic front forks handle potholes smoothly, while the multi-speed transmission shifts cleanly.
The fuel delivery layout features a highly efficient induction system paired with a spacious fuel tank. The battery system operates a standard 12 V (Maintenance Free) starter battery, ensuring quick ignition. In our real-world evaluations, the bike delivered an impressive efficiency of 65 km/l under standard loads.
Riding Safety
Avoid revving the engine hard when cold. Allow the oil to circulate for 30 seconds after cold startup to avoid premature cylinder liner wear.
Consistent braking security is delivered by front and rear discs, offering dependable stop-on-a-dime performance. With wide tubeless radial tires, the bike remains stable on slick pavement while using readily available parts for easy service.
