    Mandeep

    Smooth riding experience & servicing, maintenance good 56 mileage daily use in city Look simple,'lack of sport Missing fifth gear – for its power and pick up, the bike should have had a fifth gear to ensure smoothness on highway. It produces high vibration and sound on high speeds.- chain dislocation – the chain surprisingly gets off frequently due to dryness and loosening. Make sure you keep oiling and tightening the chain every 2 weeks.- common spare parts like chain cover, handle covers, front hood, indicators etc. Are not available at service centres especially when your model is over 2 years old. Honda keeps making minor changes in accessories every year and it ignores the old customers. Its like they expect us to buy a new bike every year.- honda has the most unresponsive customer support system. They never respond to e mails.- the service centres are understaffed and under equipped. It takes a long waiting to get your bike serviced.

  • Great performance and smooth rider!

    6 years ago


    R Selvakumar

    Unsatisfied buying experience, because they delivered with broken foot rest for the pillion seat. I noticed this in my home,then i informed to the sales person and took my vehicle to the service place and also there is no spare even in their service place.Smooth riding experience, gear transmission have little bit irritating. Otherwise great product.Change the look with some features like digital and analog speedometer console. 3 inch broader tyre required for better road grip. Main thing concentrate in the chain sprocket, change into larger chain type. Now it's looks like a cycle chain. That's why we need to change periodically. Otherwise it looks good.

  • Must read! honest review with my experience.

    6 years ago


    Rohan Jiwatode

    Its a better option if you want more power than a 100cc bike and at the same time average too. For this you need to select a bike of 125cc. And there is one and only one option i.E honda cb shine. At this price range this is a perfect bike regarding its average, look and smoothly working engine. The services are good because honda never feel failed to amaze us by their service its all of a good one. And the selling price you get is more than the other company bike at this price range. Sounder 70k no better option could be found other than shine.Pros-average,performance,price is affordable Cons-chain gets free after 10k kms u need to tight it.

  • Good bike

    6 years ago


    Prabhash Ranjan

    Good for city riding.Excellent mileage in his segment.Disc brake works perfectly.Engine have long life. Service cost is less as compared to other bike of 125cc. Handling is not that good. It can be improved.Tubeless is good when it comes to performance.It always recommended to have this bike if someone is considering 125 cc bike.

    This bike is a good commercial ride.. I don't have any bike but i used my friend's bike. It is smooth , passionate. Service is normal or reasonable for me. Its service is reasonable & easy for me. When i ride it is so comfortable & smooth. Most important thing is money that is reasonable for all of this.

    Ajay Sharma

    I like this bike for day to day riding and it quite comfortable and gives me a good riding experience and the of honda is also very good .It gives more power and better riding experience even on long routes i own a cb shine 125 disc model which is great in looking and comfort it is best bike around 75k but honda should include a digital speedometer and odometer this is the only con i feel about this vehicle.

  • My first bike

    6 years ago


    Hodson

    Buying experience: i was in a situation to choose between unicorn and shine.But considering the fact that i have to use it on a daily basis for an average of 30km per day,i was advised by my friend who was owning this bike to go for it.Even though spending another 10,000 rupees or so for the unicorn would have given me more power in my hand,now i completely changed my mind after having it for more than 8 months.Riding experience:i would say the experience of riding it have been awesome so far.Haven't encountered any issues with the vehicle while riding .I am using it on a daily basis and still would enjoy to take it for a 150 km trip on the weekend.Looks&performance:stylish and elegant for this price and i still would get the feel of a new machine every time it gets out of service centre. I chose the black one,because i think it is pretty cool.Convenient for daily commotion.Won't drive me crazy even when i get stuck in city traffic.Moderate power;enough for city routes.A bit under performing when you want to push it to its maximum in a 6 way line.Well it's not made for that, i guess.Overall good experience with the performance.Value for money.Servicing and maintenance:i have been keeping its service and maintenance in align with what has been asked by the maker.So,the machine does respond with equal performance shows its class.One of the con i would like to share is the small size of the rear tire.The traction might not respond as we expect,please be careful.I too was tested when riding over wet road.Other than that,i would give a kudos to the bike..!

  • Must read! honest review with my experience.

    Rohan Jiwatode

    Its a better option if you want more power than a 100cc bike and at the same time average too. For this you need to select a bike of 125cc. And there is one and only one option i.E honda cb shine. At this price range this is a perfect bike regarding its average, look and smoothly working engine. The services are good because honda never feel failed to amaze us by their service its all of a good one. And the selling price you get is more than the other company bike at this price range. Sounder 70k no better option could be found other than shine.Pros-average,performance,price is affordable Cons-chain gets free after 10k kms u need to tight it.

    Prabhash Ranjan

    Good for city riding.Excellent mileage in his segment.Disc brake works perfectly.Engine have long life. Service cost is less as compared to other bike of 125cc. Handling is not that good. It can be improved.Tubeless is good when it comes to performance.It always recommended to have this bike if someone is considering 125 cc bike.

    This bike is a good commercial ride.. I don't have any bike but i used my friend's bike. It is smooth , passionate. Service is normal or reasonable for me. Its service is reasonable & easy for me. When i ride it is so comfortable & smooth. Most important thing is money that is reasonable for all of this.

    I like this bike for day to day riding and it quite comfortable and gives me a good riding experience and the of honda is also very good .It gives more power and better riding experience even on long routes i own a cb shine 125 disc model which is great in looking and comfort it is best bike around 75k but honda should include a digital speedometer and odometer this is the only con i feel about this vehicle.

  • My first bike

    6 years ago


    Hodson

    Buying experience: i was in a situation to choose between unicorn and shine.But considering the fact that i have to use it on a daily basis for an average of 30km per day,i was advised by my friend who was owning this bike to go for it.Even though spending another 10,000 rupees or so for the unicorn would have given me more power in my hand,now i completely changed my mind after having it for more than 8 months.Riding experience:i would say the experience of riding it have been awesome so far.Haven't encountered any issues with the vehicle while riding .I am using it on a daily basis and still would enjoy to take it for a 150 km trip on the weekend.Looks&performance:stylish and elegant for this price and i still would get the feel of a new machine every time it gets out of service centre. I chose the black one,because i think it is pretty cool.Convenient for daily commotion.Won't drive me crazy even when i get stuck in city traffic.Moderate power;enough for city routes.A bit under performing when you want to push it to its maximum in a 6 way line.Well it's not made for that, i guess.Overall good experience with the performance.Value for money.Servicing and maintenance:i have been keeping its service and maintenance in align with what has been asked by the maker.So,the machine does respond with equal performance shows its class.One of the con i would like to share is the small size of the rear tire.The traction might not respond as we expect,please be careful.I too was tested when riding over wet road.Other than that,i would give a kudos to the bike..!

  • Honda cb shine 125

    6 years ago


    Mandeep

    Smooth riding experience & servicing, maintenance good 56 mileage daily use in city Look simple,'lack of sport Missing fifth gear – for its power and pick up, the bike should have had a fifth gear to ensure smoothness on highway. It produces high vibration and sound on high speeds.- chain dislocation – the chain surprisingly gets off frequently due to dryness and loosening. Make sure you keep oiling and tightening the chain every 2 weeks.- common spare parts like chain cover, handle covers, front hood, indicators etc. Are not available at service centres especially when your model is over 2 years old. Honda keeps making minor changes in accessories every year and it ignores the old customers. Its like they expect us to buy a new bike every year.- honda has the most unresponsive customer support system. They never respond to e mails.- the service centres are understaffed and under equipped. It takes a long waiting to get your bike serviced.

  • Great performance and smooth rider!

    6 years ago


    R Selvakumar

    Unsatisfied buying experience, because they delivered with broken foot rest for the pillion seat. I noticed this in my home,then i informed to the sales person and took my vehicle to the service place and also there is no spare even in their service place.Smooth riding experience, gear transmission have little bit irritating. Otherwise great product.Change the look with some features like digital and analog speedometer console. 3 inch broader tyre required for better road grip. Main thing concentrate in the chain sprocket, change into larger chain type. Now it's looks like a cycle chain. That's why we need to change periodically. Otherwise it looks good.
