No problems with mine after 25,000 km. I think as long as you're careful not to expose it to direct water spray while washing, it holds up well.

The bike feels balanced with a pillion, but the brakes feel a bit inadequate. I wish Honda offered a rear disc option for better stopping power.
Is the Honda SP125 Sports Edition worth the extra cost over the standard SP125?
21 January 2025 11:23
Honestly, I don't think it's worth it. The regular SP125 is already a great bike, and these minor cosmetic changes don't add any real value. Save that 500 bucks and get some useful accessories instead.

I disagree; the Sports Edition looks way cooler! That matte exhaust and those graphics really make it stand out. For just 500 bucks extra, it's totally worth it if you care about style.

Nah, it's just a marketing gimmick. Honda's trying to milk more money out of buyers without offering any real improvements. Spend that extra cash on better riding gear instead.

As an SP125 owner, I wish I had waited for the Sports Edition. It's not just about looks—it shows you have the latest version, which matters to some people.
