I must say this is by far one of the best looking bike in sub 125cc segment.

another day, another new bike

raining new models here...
another reliable HONDA heart!

was checking the color options.looks like only the tank, scoop, front mud guard and the front cowl have different colours, rest all parts greyish-black.
good cost cutting move there

engine looks like a big-family size cone ice-cream

Very good product from Honda. For a 110 cc the features are real cool. Tacho will be missed though. Stylish option for a commuter who does not want to compromise on mileage. Definnitely will be a hit among college goers and commuters too.

Did anybody notice gear shift pattern? One down three up!!

A stunner in looks. Very good meter console. Surprused to see pricing on par with HH's.

But hey, is this what Honda promised us when they said this bike would have never head of features in that segment??? - Tubeless tyres!

And the rear tyre is of the same size as R15's - 100/80 x 17

Dear Honda, where is the uniqueness in this bike apart from the looks? that anyone can copy in a few months???

Those engines to come on to a bike would need enough modifications that it cannot be called the same any more.

Not really needed on a 110 cc commuter. Yeah, good to have but adds to cost.

You like the Uni till date and hence you don't like this one much

Isn't the P135 a copy of an Original Honda Design? (Hint Hint: Honda Tiger aka Hero Honda Hunk)

See the mantra: Catch them young - make them get used to a Honda and sell Honda's to them all the way!!! (just kidding - no need of analysis on this please)

We left that for the explorer to discover. Good find. Would miss the 5th cog more than the tacho.

The previous news was that Honda will launch the bike in Auto Expo next month. Now, they launched out of blue. Is it something to do with new P135 launch?

Thats a great package for starters as well as the people who find it difficult to convince their parents for bigger bike.

It will be launched on 5th january as 42k is the price image.

@chicane1879
correct and they just said that in a news telecast that "their target segment comprises of the people who are college going , young or fresher in job and want some thing to match there age and modern style."


damn too late!

Yes, That is the main thing... Players like Bajaj and TVS are making the Honda to do some real good home work...

@ Twister
Welcome Dude, hope to see you in more numbers on Road!! Tubeless tires on a 110cc is a big welcome!!
