With premium features like full LED headlamps, tail lamps and daytime running lamps, a futuristic-looking full digital instrument console and an advanced version of the key shutter mechanism, the Honda Click 125i feels modern and edgy. This will surely appeal to the riders of the younger generation.
The Honda Click 125i is powered by a four-stroke, single-cylinder, liquid-cooled, fuel-injected, 125cc engine, with which 11.1PS of maximum power output and 10.8 Nm of peak torque, makes the Honda Click 125i one of the most powerful and refined scooters in its class.
Despite its sleek and sharp body profile, the Honda Click 125i boasts of a very capacious under-seat storage space of 18-litre. This space is good enough to accommodate a full-face helmet.
The Honda Click 125i has been bestowed with a very striking and sharp design language, which make it attractive when viewed head-on. However, with very bulbous and large front design and contrasting looking sleek rear end, the final outcome of the overall design feels a bit disproportionate
The slim tires of the Honda Click 125i do try to make the handling of the scooter very easy and rider-friendly. However, they tend to lose grip sometimes during quick directional changes, and at the same time, they do not go well with the overall muscular appeal of the scooter
The small footboard ahead the rider’s seat of the Honda Click 125i do make the riding ergonomics of taller riders a bit cramped for longer commutes

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.

To me bike is a synonym of trend, luxury and fashion. So when I check a bike I ensure these three qualities are there in that bike. I have rode so many bikes in past. This time also I was quite fussy while taking my final decision. Finally I got to check the Click edition of Honda bike. I loved
I have an old bike, which I sold as it lost its capacity of giving fuel economy and also needed maintenance. I needed a bike with digital features and at a reasonable cost. The bike should also be light in weight and easy to handle. While browsing the internet I saw Honda Click 125i whose features and my requirements matched.
I always wanted a scooter with modern looks and amazing dashboard. Honda launched the Click 125i with all digital instrument console. Even after three years, the scooter still performs great without any technical problem. The engine is super refined, as you would expect from a Honda motor. The boot space is excellent and makes it very practical. The all-digital display
I wanted a scooter with a powerful engine that can run up to triple-digit speeds. I knew that Honda engines are capable of it. I took a test ride of Click 125i and it was easily touching 100 kmph. I did not think of any other feature and bought the scooter. The engine does not stress out on high speeds
The Honda Click 125i resembles R15 V3. The front looks very sporty and appealing. I own an R15 and wanted a scooter for city commutes. Honda click was the best option for me. After riding R15 this scooter does feel underpowered but considering its engine capacity, the power figure is more than enough. The seating position is very comfortable. It
