Good Points

The SH 125i is comfortable to ride. Its an ideal commuter Scooter. Its also thin enough to thread between traffic lanes. The indicators when viewed from behind, compliment the large brake light - especially when the lights are low. The headlight is fantastic, and when on full beam it illuminates everything - and more...l


Bad Points

Service Points every 2500 miles (Yellow light comes on). The sidelights are ineffective. The in house battery cannot work with an
Alarm System and Tracker together.


General Comments

The Honda SH 125i is still very reliable and comfortable to ride. Servicing is at every 2500 miles, and can be quite costly (UK £85). Speedometer cable failed, within the first year. My dealer has given me 2 years on parts and warranty; I am also covered for 2 years by the AA (UK - top of the range - roadside assistance and recovery). The main headlight is excellent at night, (The sidelights are pathetic and can / should be available for customisation). The tyre grip is fantastic, even in the wet, and you can lean into corners with absolute confidence. For a commuter Scooter, the acceleration is fine and you can "out drag" quite a number of vehicles. Avoid "Proper" Motorcycles and "Sports" Cars.
