Expect prices of the BS6-compliant CB Shine 125 SP to go up by Rs 6000 to Rs 7000

  • Honda launched India’s first BS6-compliant two-wheeler – the Activa 125 – last month.
  • The Shine SP might feature a brand-new motor, just like the new Activa 125.
  • Changes in dimension suggest that a complete model revamp is likely to take place.

Honda is planning to launch the BS6-compliant CB Shine 125 SP soon as documents regarding the motorcycle’s compliance to the upcoming emission norms have surfaced online. The CB Shine 125 SP will be Honda’s first BS6-compliant motorcycle with the new BS6-complaint Activa 125 introduced just last month. 

According to the document, the engine produces 10.88PS, making it slightly more powerful than the BS4 Shine SP (10.5PS). It will be fuel-injected as Honda had stated earlier this year that it was the only way to meet stringent BS6 emission norms. The company is yet to reveal if the more powerful engine is an all-new unit or a modified version of the existing motor. Rest assured, stay tuned to BikeDekho for all the updates regarding the BS6 CB Shine 125 SP!

Interestingly, the new CB Shine SP is 13mm longer, 23mm wider and 18mm higher than the outgoing model. Also, the new model’s wheelbase of 1285mm is 19mm longer than the current bike. All of these changes suggest that there’s going to be design revamp of sorts for the 125cc commuter motorcycle.

Given that the Shine is India’s highest-selling 125cc motorcycle, it will be key for Honda to get the pricing right. Earlier this year at SIAM’s annual convention, Honda suggested that it’s BS6 models would receive a price hike of around 10-15 per cent. Hence, expect the base version of the Shine SP to cost roughly Rs 71,500 while the more premium front disc-equipped version could be priced at Rs 77,500 (ex-showroom Delhi).
