First launched only three years ago in 2015, the Honda Click 125i was no slouch, to begin with. It really brought the fight to the likes of Yamaha’s Mio range and the Suzuki Skydrive FI. And now there is an all-new version on our hands. Brand new styling, all LED lighting, and updated instruments only scratch the surface of everything new about this scooter. At a much more competitive price of Php 74900, it is also a much bigger threat to the tyranny of the Yamaha Mio range. But we are getting ahead of ourselves. Here is a detailed look at everything you can look forward to in a Honda showroom near you.
Your first look at the 2018 Honda Click 125i is sure to raise a few eyebrows. Underneath the new more aggressive styling, however, is very much the same design. If anything the scooter has become smaller with a length of 1919 mm, width of 679 mm and height of 1062 mm. The 14” cast alloy wheels remain unchanged as do the 80/90 front and 90/90 rear tubeless tires. What has changed though is the front end. If the earlier clean design looked like a glossy sports car, the new design replaces it with a bold new LED position light setup that gives it an almost alien look. The dual keen LED headlights are still here but are largely overshadowed by the sculpted front apron. The rakish tail section is now, even more, striking with new details and bolder decals. The sharp taillight is now also LED as are the winkers mounted on the rear mudguard. There is a new and modern exhaust with an aluminum rectangular end but the stepped seat and the rear grab rail have stayed unchanged. There are new even more eye-catching colors thrown in the mix, ranging from subtle Anchor Gray Metallic to Fanta like Nitric Orange with Vivid Blue Metallic and Space Magenta Metallic making up the rest. The rider is also greeted by a new fully digital LCD display with blue backlighting and bold white letters. Showing real-time fuel consumption, battery and oil change indicator, trip meter and a digital clock, it is also very comprehensive. Under the seat is the same 18 L U-Box that can store a full face helmet.
Telescopic front forks and unit swing suspension in the rear make up the Click 125i’s suspension setup. They provide a comfortable ride and easy maneuverability for filtering through traffic. The scooter only weighs 107 kg dry, which aids in its agility in a big way. The slim profile and 1280 mm wheelbase only adds to it. The low ground clearance of 132 mm, however, does cause some worry for potentially scraping the bottom of the scooter on rough terrain. The 769 mm seat height makes it usable for riders of all heights. The handlebars are slightly low but not enough to cause discomfort.
Powering the 2018 Honda Click 125i is a 125cc liquid-cooled and fuel-injected SOHC engine. Peak power of 8.3 kW at 8500 rpm and peak torque of 10.8 Nm at 5500 rpm is unchanged from the previous model. Same goes for its refinement and reliability. As does the V belt automatic transmission. The engine is also equipped with the enhanced smart power system for optimal power delivery. Being liquid-cooled, there is no drop in power and performance even after long rides in hot weather. The ACG starter system allows silent jolt-free starts and reduces engine vibration. Like before, the Idle Stop-start system is still missing. But thanks to the PGM-Fi mapping, it easily delivers 53 kmpl.
Like before the Honda Click 125i comes with a single hydraulic disc brake on the front and a mechanical leading-trailing drum brake on the rear. Honda’s Combi braking system makes an appearance here as well, deploying both the brakes on squeezing the right brake lever. This results in an optimal distribution of braking power and safe stops. The scooter also comes with a secure key shutter to keep it safe from thieves. There is also an additional parking brake that keeps it from being moved about when parked.
When you consider all the new things about this scooter, it is hard to believe that it is now much cheaper than its predecessor. Honda has taken surgically precise strokes to this scooter and made it much better than it already was.

It was time for my college and I wanted a new bike. I have been trying so hard to persuade my parents to get me one and when they finally agreed, the more difficult part came in. I had to choose the bike! I wanted something stylish as well as bold. I really liked the new model Honda Click 125i
The Honda Click reminds me of the Yamaha R15 v3 because of its styling. The front headlamp is designed similar to the racing bike. I now have both the Yamaha R15 and the Click, the latter to do my job related commuting. I am a big fan of speed and anything that can hit high speeds thrill me most. And
The Honda Click 125i is best known for its engine and lower price tag. It may be lower in power and specifications than the 150i sibling but is more affordable. It has quite similar features to that of the bigger scooter, which makes it attractive. But though it has a smaller engine, you won’t feel much of a difference as
