excellent bike. after my 50cc moped it feels like a Rolls Royce. smooth and with plenty of power. great fuel consumption and very reliable. why everybody who commutes has not got one I do not know. smooth, good handling, starts every time, great looks (unless you are 17) it's just like my Honda car, quality you can rely on. the honda ps125i is the best 125 out there.

The Honda PS125i is a cool scooter does what it is made for, and a little bit more.
Rode 1250 miles so far.
I got a good deal on the all-black ps125i with free black top box.
I use this scooter mainly for commuting to work, a trip of 30 miles one way. Speed limit on the roads is 45 miles/h, which is not a problem at all for this scooter. Comfortably follows the traffic or leaves it behind at traffic lights. The straight stretches are dull but passing the stationary cars and zipping through ...

Bought this Honda PS125i a few weeks ago and I am very happy with it. Good take off and feels stable and small enough to get through the south london traffic, the only issue I habve is the underseat compartment is too small for a full face helmet, its actually smaller than the honda 50cc I had before. Seat it self could be a little more comfortable but its not bad and generally it a very satisfying ride to work

I've had my Honda PS125i Sport since August 2008, and I use it daily for an 18 mile round trip commute to the office (which includes a 5 mile dual-carriageway stretch). It's a pleasure to ride, thanks to its punchy acceleration (the 0-40 is very quick) and ride comfort. The bike is intended for tall riders. I'm 6ft, and I can just about put my foot down fully. My (shorter) wife cannot reach the floor at all! Fuel economy is excellent, even though I push the bike on the dual-carriageway every day ...

This bike is so good in dense traffic. I ' m more than confident I can squeeze into gaps and past static traffic, the acceleration on the bike is amazing, 0-40 in at least 4 5 seconds, great take off. Really useful for taking off at traffic lights. It's really reassuring that If I ' m in trouble or need to get out of the way my bike won't let me down.Lights are very powerful on the machine, more powerful than most cars. Can get well over 100 miles a galleon, looking 150 miles per tank, which is ...

I have owned my Honda PS125i for a month, moving up from a 50cc. My bike is 2 yrs old, and in perfect condition, except for a little rust on the shock absorbers. I had a little 'shock', when informed that a new shock would cost £165 EACH!!! so will live with slightly rusty ones for now! It is a dream to ride, fast acceleration, good brakes and copes well with bumpy rural roads and steep hills (much better than my 50cc which I would have to get off and push up!). Its a tall scooter, which ...

I have had my scooter for two months from new and done 630 miles. The first service cost £89. 00 because it is only free if you take it back to the original dealer, remember this if you buy online as I did. I still saved £300. 00, this paid for helmet, jacket, lock ect. I bought my Pes125i to save money on fuel as I do a lot of short i. e. : 10 mile or less inner city journeys, somtimes three or four a day. I have found the Honda will do 85 miles to the gallon on average, this seem ...

I'm really impressed with my Honda PS125 - much easier than a bike for commuting because of the good turning circle and ease of squeezing through traffic. I've used it on the motorway and with the wind behind me it was fine and even at the top end of its speed limit (60-70 with the right wind support) it feels solid, although obviously not like a big bike. Only disadvantage is it lackes the high engine noise of a bike so I've had a few sleepy commuter drivers pull out on me sepite the day-glo et ...

I found this site really helpful when choosing a scooter and so wanted to share my experience. Got a great deal from Honda with 0% finance and a free top box.
I am 6'4" and 100kg and the 125cc does well with enough acceleration and speed get away at lights and safely keep up with traffic in London. Not really suited to faster roads by design.
The brakes are good but the rear drum could be stronger.
The lights and other controls work well and the wheel design allows a large chain to be passed th ...

Light height, drivers see you early; Nippy; very fuel efficient; Comfortable (I am 6ft 4"); Brakes give confidence. Equally comfortable on fast back roads and in City centre traffic.
A great scooter - which will provider years of hassle free commuting.

I'm back into biking aged 45 after an 11 year gap. Forced into it really due to the price of fuel - car does 33mpg, bike does almost 80mpg, and it fairly irritates to pay so much to Mr Brown for a daily journey that is no fun at all. So for commuting (12 miles, mostly in town or country lanes), it's great. Much more fun than any car, get to work with a smile on your face.
The bike responds well to the throttle and is just so easy to use, just twist 'n' go. The brakes are excellent.
I bought mine ...

Very reliable, good suspension, stable, responsive brakes. Nice and nippy, fairly fast, big seat. No serious bad points! Maybe the seat could be a little more comfortable though it's not bad at all! Space between feet is raised so not easy to rest bags there.

Living near a holiday resort (Bridlington) I find it very good in summer holiday traffic but wish I had seen the 300 version before buying . Still ,it does all I need at 55-60 mph,which is what my old 350 BSA cruised at. My "road burning " days are long past, worse luck. I would recommend the Honda PS125I to anyone as a commuter machine,or intro to (near) biking.

Other than the problem I've had in cold weather, about which my dealer tells me nothing can be done, the Honda PS125i bike is extremely good value, and I'd strongly recommend it.

I replaced my Zip100 with this for my 40 mile daily commute, and it is amazing in comparison.
The Honda PS125i keeps up with the traffic, and I can get 65 - 70mph out of it.
It starts with the lightest of touches on the coldest of mornings.
The only problem is that the seat is high. I am 5'9" and I am on tiptoes when I sit on the bike.

I was going to get a Dylan, but when I realised it was being phased out I went for the Honda PS, even though I prefer the styling of the Dylan.
It feels like a really well-sorted bike. It's much better bolted together than the Yamaha that it replaced. Performance is excellent, with quite a torquey 4-stroke that's fine for anything up to dual-carriageways. Injection makes a huge difference if you're used to a smoky juddering 2-stroke first thing in the morning.
Shop around - I got &pou ...

I got a Honda PS125i, was going for a Dylan but apparently the PS is the replacement. Anyway, great quality -everything fits, everything works. The bike is I understand basically a restyled Dylan with fuel injection g, so I guess my comments are valid.
Brakes OK, would like rear a disc but at this price fair enough. Honda make a big thing about combined braking but read the manual and they talk about using front & rear brakes like the combined doesn't exist. My PS definitely does not have a ...

I think it has on of the the most favorite weight/power rate of its category. A great engine both from economy of use and for performances: I often brutally used my scooter in mountain streets (I live in Dolomite's), where I have many occasions to appreciate the precision of the anterior of the bike. The only thing that is not perfect in my scooter is breaks, where the anterior is power while the posterior drum brake is too soft (but the integral system of breaks is useful to avoid panic stops)

I've had mine 16 Months and had a new exhaust I got fed up with mine rusting within a week so I got the Leo Vince "4 Road" Its beautiful stainless steal.
I've had Malossi Secondary Gears, Variators, X Kevlar Drive belt, New clutch springs, and my latest purchase is a Iridium Spark plug this has made a great difference in fuel consumption.
And for now my Dylan can beat any 125cc Moped/scooter or crosser in a race.
My next purchase will be the Malossi Camshaft and the Malossi delta clutch ...

I bought this Honda Dylan a week ago to replace a Piaggio Zip 125 which was getting a bit tatty. I use it to commute to work each day. This is my 5th scooter and by far the best of the lot in every aspect, it easily gets to 60 mph and it knocks spots off all the other scooters I've had and tried, and that comes from somebody that rides a Harley Davidson at weekends but don't tell them I've got a scooter.
