only 3 days have passed experiencing the sp125 disc version. my (single ride) use as daily commute 35.4 + 35.4 (=70.8) kms on a fixed Highway route. it gives me 70.8 kmpl besides 50-60 KMPH smooth variable speed. what is exciting, it's mileage is increasing each and everyday run. and I'll update the same next time according to usage. Within city I found 64 + kmpl. I ve on ride video recodings (in spells) as proof of test result. smooth engine start, minimum noise during ride, excellent pick up and braking mechanism, masculine look, great aerodynamic design, cool smart digital instrument console, good LED headlight and marking light electrical system and offcourse great mileage as stated earlier. M totally happy and somehow feeling thankful to a person who himself suggested this honda product though he owns a hero passion pro bs6 for which he is not satisfied. the persons who need more info about my real-time experience over this bike performance must drop me queries into my mail a******8@yahoo.co

Purchased in June 2020( green version, Disc variant). Positives:- the performance is overall good. I am getting mileage around 68kmpl. All 3 free services and 1st paid service is over(18, 880km) as of now and the bike is still perfect in all aspects. Smooth silent starts and smooth ride.Negatives:-1. Tyre thickness is very small, So greater chance( fear) of skidding or falling. Also while taking turns, The vehicle takes a little more curvature as compared to other bikes.

It's highly comfort and it can with an eco indication that way we can maintain in eco mode we can get high mileage i bought the disc variant so it came with an nisin caliper front disc but there is no option for rear disc the sadest part of bike is the tyre even it comes with tubeless in both rear and front but the both in same size radius so for long ride it not give road grip in top speedbut in 70-80kmph it's performance impressive
