I am thinking to buy Honda Shine 125cc bike, is there any drawbacks in it?Also what is good in it? Should i buy it or not? Plzz helpI am thinking to buy Honda Shine 125cc bike, is there any drawbacks in it?Styling: The looks of the bike is not sporty like the Glamour, the competitor from Hero Honda. But I feel that the bike has a different focus than the latter. The bike has been designed for the 鈥榦ffice commuter鈥?in mind who needs plain and neat looks. If you are a college student, choose to buy the Honda CBF Stunner which has the same 125cc engine but a sporty and trendy outfit.







Performance: Many users have told me that the bike vibrates when it is taken above 60 km/hr. But one has to remember that this is a 125cc bike and not a 150cc one. But at low speeds, the acceleration is fantastic. The bike gives a mileage of more than 50kmpl for sure but it can give higher number if you maintain the right air pressure in the tires and get your bike serviced regularly.

he bike has very good handling, the ergonomic seats make it very comfortable for all day riding. Gearing is a noticeable feature in Shine. A owner of Honda Shine says - Gearing is very user friendly. Frequent gear shifting is not required. You can ride at quite low speeds without down shifting. For example: if I am going in 4th gear and I approach a speed breaker, I have been able to slow down to around 20kmph, cross the speed breaker and then accelerate again all the while remaining in 4th gear. Wow! That makes city riding more comfortable.

The dashboard has the basic features built into it. Speedometer and ODO meter on the left and fuel gauge with three indicators (high beam, signal, and neutral) on the right. The indicator lights look cute in oval shape, don鈥檛 you think so? And they are bright enough so that it is visible even in broad day light.

The shine is well built, attractive and goes like a rocket up to 60 Kms/hour. Thereafter, it seems to take ages to increase the speed any further.



Try and understand, most people in the city require good acceleration up to say 50 or 60. So it is best for them. However if you are someone who does the highway more than the by lanes, then the shine is not for you. It has only 4 gears. That makes it more convenient in the city but will use more fuel at higher rpm.I am thinking to buy Honda Shine 125cc bike, is there any drawbacks in it?It depends if you want to go faster than 50 mph or not. I think you should start with at least a 250. My wife has a Rebel 250 and gets 70mpg with it.I am thinking to buy Honda Shine 125cc bike, is there any drawbacks in it?
