The Honda SP 125 marks a major step forward in the 125cc commuting motorbike market. As Honda's first BS6-compliant motorbike in India, this bike offers an amazing mix of speed, fuel economy, and features that set it apart from its rivals. Let's look at what makes the SP 125 an appealing choice for daily riders.
SP 125 price

- SP125 Drum: ₹92,110
- SP125 Disc: ₹1,00,284
Although this marks a rise of around ₹8,000 compared to the previous BS4 Shine SP model, the extra functions and improvements explain the price difference. The SP 125 offers good value for money compared to other bikes in the class.
SP 125 specifications
The SP 125 is driven by Honda's smooth 123.94cc single-cylinder engine, providing excellent speed for its category. The SP 125's engine gets special notice as Honda increased power and torque while meeting tougher emission rules. The 5-speed gearbox offers easier shifts. The SP 125 specifications include:
- Kerb Weight: 116 kg
- Seat Height: 790 mm
- Ground Clearance: 160 mm
- Fuel Tank:2 liters

The lightweight construction makes the SP 125 quick and easy to move through city traffic. And the suspension setup offers a comfortable ride quality even over broken roads.

Honda has packed the SP 125 with amazing features that raise it above normal commuting bikes. The fully digital instrument panel is a standout element, giving users complete information at a glance. Some of the notable SP 125 features are:
- Digital Display: Includes speedometer, odometer, fuel gauge, and dual trip meters
