Overview

Introducing the 2017 Honda SH125i: A Stylish Urban Companion The 2017 Honda SH125i stands as a testament to Honda’s commitment to producing practical yet stylish scooters tailored for urban commuting. Positioned in the ever-popular scooter category, the SH125i is designed not just to get you from point A to point B, but to do so with an air of sophistication and comfort. With its sleek lines and modern design, this scooter captures the essence of city life, making it an ideal choice for both seasoned riders and those new to two-wheeled travel. Engine Performance and Riding Characteristics At the heart of the SH125i lies a robust 125cc single-cylinder, four-stroke engine that delivers a spirited 11.67 horsepower at 8,500 RPM. This punchy powerplant is complemented by a peak torque of 11 Nm at 6,500 RPM, ensuring that riders can accelerate smoothly through city traffic while maintaining an efficient and enjoyable ride. The PGM-FI electronic fuel injection system not only optimizes fuel delivery for impressive fuel economy—boasting an astonishing 1.76 liters per 100 km (or 133.65 mpg)—but also contributes to the scooter's responsive performance. With a liquid cooling system keeping the engine operating at peak efficiency, riders will appreciate the smoothness and reliability that the SH125i offers, whether navigating busy streets or enjoying leisurely weekend rides. Key Features and Technology The 2017 SH125i is equipped with an array of features that enhance both safety and comfort. The scooter comes standard with ABS (Anti-lock Braking System) on both the front and rear disc brakes, providing superior stopping power and confidence in various riding conditions. Its tubular steel underbone frame strikes an ideal balance between lightweight agility and robust stability, allowing for nimble handling in tight urban environments. The 33mm telescopic front fork and dual-damper rear suspension work together to absorb bumps and uneven surfaces, providing a comfortable ride even on less-than-perfect roads. The SH125i also boasts a generous fuel capacity of 7.5 liters, ensuring that riders can cover significant distances before needing to refuel. **
