Honda has sent out invites for a launch on 14th November and we are expecting the second BS-6 product in the line, the CB Shine 125 to be launched in India.
Honda has started its BS-6 operations with the new Activa 125. The second in line is reported to be the BS-6 compliant Honda CB Shine 125. After the Activa series, CB Shine is the most popular motorcycle from the brand.
Honda has already sent out invites for 14th November and it could very well be the BS-6 Honda Shine 125. Recently, the technical specifications of the motorcycle were leaked online, which revealed some changes.
The BS-6 Shine will produce 10.73 BHP, seeing a very small increase in power from 10.15 BHP. Honda had earlier stated that it would use a fuel injection system on its upcoming BS-6 models, but in the document, it has not been mentioned.

Not only this, but the BS-6 Honda Shine 125 will be bigger than the outgoing version. The wheelbase will be 1285mm making it 19mm longer. The length will be increased by 8mm to 2020mm, width by 23mm to 785mm and height by 13mm to 1103mm.
The same 124.6cc air-cooled engine will continue to power the CB Shine. Suspension will be handled by telescopic forks at the front and twin shock absorbers at the back. Drum brakes at both the ends come as standard whereas you also have the option of a front disc brake.
Honda also sells the Shine SP version which gets body graphics and better colour options. In terms of design, there will be no changes, although we can expect some new features on board the commuter.
