The Hero MotoCorp Xtreme 125R uses a 124.7cc, air-cooled, single-cylinder engine producing 11.4hp and 10.5Nm. It is paired with a 5-speed gearbox and fuel injection. The motorcycle uses a diamond frame, telescopic front forks and a rear suspension setup that varies by version, with an adjustable monoshock offered on the updated higher-spec model.

Braking equipment depends on the variant. The entry-level model gets a combined braking system, while the ABS variants offer single-channel or dual-channel ABS. The motorcycle runs 17-inch alloy wheels with tubeless tyres, a 90-section front tyre and a wider 120-section rear tyre. It has a 1,319mm wheelbase, 180mm ground clearance and a 10-litre fuel tank.

Equipment includes LED lighting and a digital instrument cluster. The Dual Channel ABS variant adds ride-by-wire, cruise control and three riding modes: Eco, Road and Power. The updated range also gets a USB Type-C charging port, while the sporty bodywork, muscular fuel tank and split-seat design remain key elements of its styling.

Honda cb 125 vs Xtreme 125r which one is longjivity engine

•45w

Hi AC team, I am currently 17 years old and will turn 18 in April 2026. After April, I want to buy a new bike for myself. I have enquired about the Honda CB125 Hornet, Yamaha MT-15, NS160, and Hero Xtreme 125R. My first priority was Honda because I am currently riding my dad’s 2012 Honda Shine 125 (Optimax), and I also have a Yamaha FZ-S. I am 5′7″ tall and weigh 60 kg. My maximum budget will be ₹1.2–1.5 lakh. Please suggest a bike for everyday college riding with friends and weekend highway rides.

The Honda CB125 Hornet makes a good case for itself as your first bike with its lightweight, frugal engine and flashy style. You should also take a look at the Hero Xtreme 125R and TVS Raider because there are some areas where these bikes have an upper hand on the Honda. Bigger bikes like the Bajaj Pulsar NS160 and Yamaha MT-15 will offer you more performance, albeit at the cost of fuel efficiency. They will also be a little heavier, but it won't be a big difference. A test ride and a clear expectation of what you want from the bike will help you decide which bike is best for you.

I’m 30 years old, and a year ago I had a lumbar microdiscectomy at L5-S1. I’m a physiotherapist and ride at least 30 km a day for work. I now want to buy a bike under Rs 1.2 lakh that offers the best fuel efficiency for daily riding. I weigh 58 kg and am 5 ft 3 in tall, and I’d prefer a bike with monoshock hydraulic rear suspension. Which bike would suit me best in West Bengal?

Given your requirements, we'd recommend choosing between the TVS Raider, Bajaj Pulsar 125 and Hero Xtreme 125R. These bikes have very fuel-efficient engines, as well as comfortable ergonomics and good suspension setups, which should help them suit your needs very well. Take test rides of all three before you make your decision to ensure you make an informed one.

I am a new learner and am planning to buy a two-wheeler in Pune. With so many options available, I am quite confused. I want something that is not too heavy and is smooth to ride, as I will be commuting 30-40 km every day. I also want a reliable engine that does not require frequent maintenance or servicing, as I plan to keep the vehicle for as long as possible. I am 5ft 7in, so it should also be suitable for my height. I would prefer an ethanol-compatible petrol two-wheeler that will not give me trouble. Which bike or scooter would be suitable for me?

You haven't specified whether or not you want a geared motorcycle or a CVT scooter, so we'll suggest reputable options from both brackets.If you are looking to get your first bike as a tool to learn how to operate the clutch and gears, then you should consider the Honda Shine 125 / SP125 / CB125 Hornet, TVS Raider, Hero Super Splendor / Xtreme 125R. These are all well-priced, smooth, fuel-efficient and comfortable machines which should last you a long time and keep you comfortable over your 40km commute.If a scooter is what you prefer, then pick from reputed options like the Honda Activa 110 / 125, TVS Jupiter 110 / 125, Suzuki Access and Yamaha Fascino / RayZR.You should choose based on two things: first, which bike/scooter you gel with most on your test ride and whichever one has a service centre not too far from your residence / office for hassle-free ownership in the long run.

Hi, I would like your suggestion on a good bike for my needs. I am 40 years old, 5'9" tall, weigh 115 kg, and have a family. My daily commute is 72 km. The road conditions are around 6 out of 10, considering potholes and speed breakers. Traffic is above average; if I were to rate it on a scale of 1 to 10, where 1 is the least and 10 is the highest, I would rate it 7. I am open to both ICE and electric bikes. I would also prefer a bike that offers good fuel efficiency.
