Recently Asked User Questions

Q. DIFFERENCE BETWEEN SP 125 STD variant AND SP125 DLX variant
  • The Honda SP125 STD and DLX share the same 123.94 cc engine with 10.87 PS power and 10.9 Nm torque, offering around 63 kmpl mileage. The STD variant comes with drum brakes on both wheels and basic features like a digital console and LED lights, while the DLX adds a front disc brake and Bluetooth connectivity via the Honda RoadSync app. Both have similar dimensions and a 3-year/42,000 km warranty. The STD is priced at ₹85,564 and the DLX at ₹93,152 (Ex-showroom, New Delhi). The DLX is ideal for those seeking advanced features, whereas the STD is a more budget-friendly option.
Q. Shine 125 or Pulsar 125 or Raider 125 which is the best?
  • Honda Shine comes with better fuel efficiency and a refined engine. The BS6 Shine gets an ACG starter motor, which offers extremely silent, almost noiseless starts and a start/stop switch. Powering the Honda is a 125cc fuel-injected motor that makes 10.7PS of power and 11Nm of torque mated to a new 5-speed transmission. However, The Pulsar 125 does make a lot of sense for a novice rider looking for a motorcycle with a bit of oomph without having to forego one’s entire life savings. It is the most affordable Pulsar on sale right now. And TVS has gone the smarter route, keeping a thrilling ride experience as the USP, instead of a purely commuter-centric approach. Nevertheless, the TVS Raider seems like a solid product and a worthy (and stylish) alternative to the umpteenth Honda Shine. Moreover, we would suggest you take a test ride before making the final decision. Follow the link and select your desired city for dealership details.
