Last Updated:

Honda has officially taken the wraps off its all-new CB125 Hornet in India.
This sporty commuter will go head-to-head with the Hero Xtreme 125R, packing powerful features, premium hardware, and a fresh design language.
Bookings for the motorcycle will begin from 1st August 2025, with prices to be announced soon.
Performance
The CB125 Hornet is powered by a 123.94cc, 4-stroke, SI engine, paired with a 5-speed gearbox. It churns out 11 bhp at 7500 rpm and 11.2Nm of torque at 6000 rpm. Honda claims it sprints from 0 to 60 km/h in just 5.4 seconds, making it the fastest in its class.
The CB125 Hornet boasts golden USD front forks (a first in the segment) and a 5-step adjustable rear mono-shock. Braking is managed by a 240mm front petal disc and 130mm rear drum, with single-channel ABS for improved safety. It rides on wide tubeless tyres (80/100-17 front, 110/80-17 rear) for better grip and handling.
Design & Color Options
It will be available in four vibrant dual-tone shades, including striking options like Pearl Siren Blue with Lemon Ice Yellow and Athletic Blue Metallic.
Features
It comes equipped with a 4.2-inch TFT display with Bluetooth connectivity via the Honda RoadSync app, offering turn-by-turn navigation, call/SMS alerts, and music control. It also features a USB Type-C charging port, engine stop switch, and side-stand engine cut-off for added safety.
