  • Trustworthy best daily commuter bike from honda in 125cc segment

    8 weeks ago


    Aditya Singh

    It's the best-in-class daily commuter bike. Have been riding for 3 years and never get a complaint. Very low maintenance. Fuel efficiency is best compared to the amazing power you get in the 125 cc segment. No complaints about performance. Cons- need kicks in the winter cold. Headlight power needed to be enhanced. Could be better if they provided a lead. Design is subjective but I prefer a little more in that.
    The buying experience was great, staff members were very kind. Riding my bike is just like trusting someone blindly. It has a shiny navy blue body with yellow stripes. The sound is so relaxing. It required less servicing and maintenance. It was my birthday gift and I got attached to it. I have created many memories with my bike And I love my bike.
    I bought a new BS6 model. The buying experience is very good. My life first bike and a good choice. The riding experience is very good butter smooth no problem. Looking classic for office daily use and long rides. I am daily riding 60 km giving 75+ average in city and highway. Servicing and maintenance are ok. Best bike.

    Tips for other riders

    Honda cb shine is basically a best and in class official or rather we can say professional bike. I purchased it at cost around 60k 3 years ago. Smooth riding , seating comfort , classy looks , high pickup and good mileage make this bike to go for person who wants all the specifications like budget friendly , stylish and efficient . Service cycle is always there like i have. 2 services every year and it's enough for this bike. I daily travel around 50 km and it's quite comfortable in traffic areas, city roads as well as on highway. Good stability is the key feature of this bike but you must have to be in control cause it has very high pickup. Some of the pros of cb shine 125cc1. Best in class looks , aggressive design , sturdy approach with high power.2. Budget friendly.3. Good mileage ( 50-55kmpl for city and 55-65 kmpl on good highway road conditions).4. Higher pickup and good stability.5. Colours availability. After looking the pros, hold a nerve and look over the following cons to. 1.Vibrating over high speed.2.Pickup may trouble in control over high speed.3. Digital speedometer is lacking over years considering cb shine 125 cc .

  • An All-Rounder bike to purchase

    8 weeks ago


    Gopi Reddy

    I purchased Honda shine from Nalgonda Honda showroom and the bike cost me around 1 lakh rupees including insurance and all other things I have driven more than 5000 km and the bike was pretty super I have no issues with the bike for now I got very good mileage of 55kmpl and bike looks are good and we got only analog speedometer and fuel indicator and stand indicator I have done three service till now but service in service centre is average he charged for changing engine oil and maintenance is very less compared to other bikes pros are the bike seat length mileage and decent looks and less sound compared to other bikes of same category and looks are also decent cons are there is no big drawback of bike I don't like 5 transmission gears it is sometimes difficult to change two gears at a time we travel long distance engine will heat heavily and we get some back pain
    It is generally good for daily travelling people and those who wish to ride in rapido-like jobs and those who live in villages due to its power.

  • Mileage beast in 125cc segment.

    1 year ago


    Prajwal S Hiremath

    We bought this bike at a reasonable price in the year 2009 with a hassle-free registration process.
    This gives us 13 years of experience using this bike and we still use it.
    No body pain experienced till now. Best travel buddy in 125 cc segment.
    This bike comes with a decent look and very good performance.
    Maintenance is easy with reasonable service charges.
    Pro's:- a very high mileage bike.
    No body pain even if we drive longer distances.
    Headlamps are really good during the night.
    Cons:- after 3 years of use. The bike shakes after 70kmph. But can be resolved with regular servicing.
    I strongly recommend this bike to everyone.
    Especially middle-class people.

  • Vibrating machine don't buy Honda cb shine.

    I am using Honda cb shine for daily commute but there is vibration from 50 km/hr. Yes, you read it right. Honda cb shine have lots of vibration from 50 km/hr. It's makes the ride very uncomfortable. So, if you want comfortable ride don't buy Honda cb shine. It's a vibrating machine. Suspension of Honda cb shine is highly uncomfortable. Don't waste your money on Honda cb shine. Don't buy Honda cb shine

  • Trustworthy best daily commuter bike from honda in 125cc segment

    8 weeks ago


    Aditya Singh

    It's the best-in-class daily commuter bike. Have been riding for 3 years and never get a complaint. Very low maintenance. Fuel efficiency is best compared to the amazing power you get in the 125 cc segment. No complaints about performance. Cons- need kicks in the winter cold. Headlight power needed to be enhanced. Could be better if they provided a lead. Design is subjective but I prefer a little more in that.
    The buying experience was great, staff members were very kind. Riding my bike is just like trusting someone blindly. It has a shiny navy blue body with yellow stripes. The sound is so relaxing. It required less servicing and maintenance. It was my birthday gift and I got attached to it. I have created many memories with my bike And I love my bike.
    I bought a new BS6 model. The buying experience is very good. My life first bike and a good choice. The riding experience is very good butter smooth no problem. Looking classic for office daily use and long rides. I am daily riding 60 km giving 75+ average in city and highway. Servicing and maintenance are ok. Best bike.

    Tips for other riders

    Honda cb shine is basically a best and in class official or rather we can say professional bike. I purchased it at cost around 60k 3 years ago. Smooth riding , seating comfort , classy looks , high pickup and good mileage make this bike to go for person who wants all the specifications like budget friendly , stylish and efficient . Service cycle is always there like i have. 2 services every year and it's enough for this bike. I daily travel around 50 km and it's quite comfortable in traffic areas, city roads as well as on highway. Good stability is the key feature of this bike but you must have to be in control cause it has very high pickup. Some of the pros of cb shine 125cc1. Best in class looks , aggressive design , sturdy approach with high power.2. Budget friendly.3. Good mileage ( 50-55kmpl for city and 55-65 kmpl on good highway road conditions).4. Higher pickup and good stability.5. Colours availability. After looking the pros, hold a nerve and look over the following cons to. 1.Vibrating over high speed.2.Pickup may trouble in control over high speed.3. Digital speedometer is lacking over years considering cb shine 125 cc .

  • An All-Rounder bike to purchase

    8 weeks ago


    Gopi Reddy

    I purchased Honda shine from Nalgonda Honda showroom and the bike cost me around 1 lakh rupees including insurance and all other things I have driven more than 5000 km and the bike was pretty super I have no issues with the bike for now I got very good mileage of 55kmpl and bike looks are good and we got only analog speedometer and fuel indicator and stand indicator I have done three service till now but service in service centre is average he charged for changing engine oil and maintenance is very less compared to other bikes pros are the bike seat length mileage and decent looks and less sound compared to other bikes of same category and looks are also decent cons are there is no big drawback of bike I don't like 5 transmission gears it is sometimes difficult to change two gears at a time we travel long distance engine will heat heavily and we get some back pain
    It is generally good for daily travelling people and those who wish to ride in rapido-like jobs and those who live in villages due to its power.

  • Mileage beast in 125cc segment.

    1 year ago


    Prajwal S Hiremath

    We bought this bike at a reasonable price in the year 2009 with a hassle-free registration process.
    This gives us 13 years of experience using this bike and we still use it.
    No body pain experienced till now. Best travel buddy in 125 cc segment.
    This bike comes with a decent look and very good performance.
    Maintenance is easy with reasonable service charges.
    Pro's:- a very high mileage bike.
    No body pain even if we drive longer distances.
    Headlamps are really good during the night.
    Cons:- after 3 years of use. The bike shakes after 70kmph. But can be resolved with regular servicing.
    I strongly recommend this bike to everyone.
    Especially middle-class people.
