The Honda Shine 125 range makes a deliberate choice on safety hardware: no variant gets ABS, and every model, including the top-spec trim, retains a rear drum brake. Braking is instead handled by a Combined Braking System paired with traction control.
 

All three variants share a single 123.94cc engine paired with a 5-speed manual gearbox, so performance and gear-shift feel are identical regardless of which model is chosen. The instrument cluster is fully digital across the range, with a tachometer, trip meter and distance-to-empty display, and a USB Type-C charging port is fitted near the dash as standard, even on the entry variant. Kerb weight is 113kg and seat height is 791mm.
 

The 18-inch alloy wheels run tubeless tyres, with a wider 90-section tyre at the rear versus a narrower unit up front. Chrome trim around the headlamp, side panels and exhaust cover, along with the 10.5-litre tank, complete a specification sheet built around dependable, low-maintenance commuting.

I am planning to buy a commuter bike under ₹1.20 lakh. My priorities are long-term engine reliability and good mileage. I ride only around 20 km daily, so I do not care much about comfort. I have shortlisted a few bikes. Please help me choose the best one among the Honda SP 125, TVS Raider, Honda Shine 125, Hero Glamour XTEC, and Hero Xtreme 125R.

The Honda Shine 125 is one of those bikes you simply can’t go wrong with, especially if you value reliability and fuel economy above everything else. The Shine has built a strong reputation over many years in the market, and if you want a simple, no-nonsense commuting partner, it is likely to suit you well.However, if you want something flashier, more feature-rich, and sportier-looking, we’d advise you to consider the TVS Raider. It is a 125cc commuter that is also fun to ride, and if that sounds appealing, the Raider is worth a look. The top variants also come with the added safety of single-channel ABS, which we would strongly recommend stretching for, especially on unpredictable roads.Make a list of what you want from your next purchase and choose accordingly. A test ride of both bikes should help you make a clearer decision.

I am 35 years old and planning to buy a scooter or bike with a budget of ₹1.5 lakh. I typically travel about 25-30 km daily. I have existing back pain, so good suspension is my primary requirement. Please suggest suitable scooter or bike options.

Considering you have some back pain, we would recommend you stick with a motorcycle as the big wheels, longer-travel suspension and neutral riding ergonomics will keep you shielded from road imperfections. Inside your budget, we would recommend 125cc bikes like the Honda Shine 125, Hero Super Splendor / Glamour models, TVS Raider 125 and Hero Xtreme 125R. Depending on the sort of style you are after, you can choose between any of these. Since you have asked us about a scooter, our current top picks are the TVS Jupiter 110, Suzuki Access and Honda Activa 125. While the scooters will be more practical, they will not be as ultra comfortable as a motorcycle over bigger bumps. Take an exhaustive test ride before you decide.
