Honda CB125 Hornet vs Bajaj Pulsar N125: Engine, features & more compared
Honda CB125 Hornet vs Bajaj Pulsar N125. The 125cc streetfighter segment has a new contender as Honda has recently unveiled the CB125 Hornet. Among many notable contenders, it will compete with the Bajaj Pulsar N125 , which was launched last year. Both bikes aim to deliver everyday performance for streets along with a sporty flair in terms of design. Here's how the two stack up against each other. Honda CB125 Hornet vs Bajaj Pulsar N125: Engine specs On the performance front, the Honda CB125 Hornet is powered by a 123.94cc, single-cylinder engine that develops 11 hp at 7,500 rpm and 11.2 Nm of torque at 6,000 rpm. It comes mated to a 5-speed gearbox and is claimed to do 0–60 kmph in just 5.4 seconds, making it the quickest in its class. Weighing in at just 124 kg, it's also the lightest in the segment. Bajaj, meanwhile, offers a slightly larger 124.58cc engine in the Pulsar N125, which pushes out 12 hp and 11 Nm. Despite being a bit heavier at 127.5 kg, the Pulsar boasts a higher ground clearance of 198 mm compared to the Hornet's 166 mm. The seat height on the Pulsar is also taller at 795 mm, whereas the Honda is slightly lower and more accessible at 786 mm. Simple One review: Is this the EV to beat? | TOI Auto Honda CB125 Hornet vs Bajaj Pulsar N125: Features & hardware Where things get really interesting is in the feature department. Honda has taken a bold step by offering USD forks at the front - a segment-first - along with a rear monoshock. Braking is handled by a 240 mm front disc and a 130 mm rear drum, backed by single-channel ABS as standard. The Pulsar N125, in contrast, uses conventional telescopic fork setup and a rear monoshock. Brakes are similar in size to the Hornet, but ABS is not offered. When it comes to tech, Honda pulls ahead with a 4.2-inch TFT screen, Bluetooth pairing via the Honda Roadsync app, and a Type-C charging port. Bajaj's N125 is available in two variants: one with a basic LCD and the other with a larger display that includes call/message alerts via Bluetooth. However, its connectivity features are limited compared to what Honda offers. Both bikes come with LED lighting and a USB charging port.

Honda CB125 Hornet vs Hero Xtreme 125R: Which 125cc streetfighter makes more sense?
Honda has officially unveiled the CB125 Hornet in India, targeting the growing segment of stylish 125cc commuter bikes. While prices are yet to be revealed, expected on August 1, it's clear that the CB125 Hornet will go head-to-head with one of the most feature-packed options in the category, the Hero Xtreme 125R . Here's how the two stack up on paper across specifications, features and hardware: Honda CB125 Hornet vs Hero Xtreme 125R: Engine and performance Both bikes fall in the premium 125cc category, but they offer slightly different tuning. The Honda CB125 Hornet is powered by a 123.94cc, air-cooled, single-cylinder engine paired with a 5-speed gearbox. It generates 11 bhp at 7,500 rpm and 11.2 Nm at 6,000 rpm.

It produces slightly more power, 11.24 bhp, but at a higher 8,250 rpm, with torque rated at 10.5 Nm at 6,500 rpm. Honda CB125 Hornet vs Hero Xtreme 125R: Features and technology Honda is going all-out in terms of features for the CB125 Hornet. It comes with full-LED lighting, a stylish twin-LED headlamp with LED DRLs, a 4.2-inch TFT screen with Bluetooth via Honda RoadSync, USB Type-C charging, an engine stop switch, and a side-stand engine cut-off. Meanwhile, the Hero Xtreme 125R also gets full-LED lighting and Bluetooth support via a digital display, but it uses a simpler digital cluster compared to Honda's TFT unit. However, it scores with a segment-first single-channel ABS, enhancing safety. Honda CB125 Hornet vs Hero Xtreme 125R: Suspension and braking Suspension setup and braking performance are key differentiators. The CB125 Hornet features segment-first golden USD front forks and a 5-step adjustable mono-shock. Braking is handled by a 240mm petal disc up front and a 130mm drum at the rear. It rides on wide tubeless tyres with an 80/100-17 section at the front and a 110/80-17 section at the rear. In contrast, the Hero Xtreme 125R uses 37mm conventional telescopic forks and a hydraulic monoshock. It also gets a 240mm unit up front, but surprisingly, it's a drum brake instead of a disc. It runs on slightly wider tyres, 90/90-17 at the front and 120/80-17 at the rear. Honda CB125 Hornet vs Hero Xtreme 125R: Price and value The Hero Xtreme 125R is priced starting at ₹98,000 (ex-showroom), making it one of the most affordable premium 125cc bikes in the country. On the other hand, Honda has not yet revealed the price of the CB125 Hornet, but it's likely to be in the same ballpark, perhaps with a slight premium considering its feature set. If you're looking for aggressive styling, premium hardware like USD forks and a modern TFT display, the Honda CB125 Hornet appears to offer more for the enthusiast. On the other hand, if safety, affordability, and proven reliability are your top priorities, the Hero Xtreme 125R holds its ground strongly with ABS and a lower price tag. The final verdict will depend heavily on the CB125 Hornet's pricing. Stay tuned for the official announcement on August 1. Check out Upcoming Bikes In India. First Published Date:
