Underbones are meant to be cheap and efficient commuters. But there is no reason for them to be bare bones basic. Bringing up the slightly more premium end of Honda’s underbone lineup is the Wave 125i. Honda sells it in two variants: a single disc brake and a double disc variant. Honda builds upon the tried and trusted underpinnings of the Wave by adding in a few premium features. However, these also push up its price closer to RM 6000. But with the influx of premium underbone mopeds from competitors like the Yamaha Lagenda 115Z and Honda’s own Wave Dash, its job is not easy. While its price is not much higher than its competitors, does it offer a good value for its price? Let’s find out.
The Honda Wave 125i is meant to be a premium product and is not shy of showing its unique styling. The front end has a gorgeous look thanks to the large headlight with a split in between. Below it, the fairing with its classic lines and the front fender makes the two-tone color schemes really pop out. The color schemes - Pearl Magellanic Black with either Sword Silver Metallic, Candy Scintillate Red or Pearl Nightfall Blue – bring a lot of the premium appeal that Honda is aiming for. The large indicator lamps on the front fairing make it instantly recognizable.
From the sides, distinct graphics on the tail section come into view. The seat is stepped and follows the lines of the upswept tail section to end with a silver grab rail. The rear lights follow the design of the headlights with a split down the middle and large integrated indicators. Small touches like the shape of the mounts for the rear pillion footrests add another layer of premium feel to the bike. The instrument display is conventional but comes in a newly designed display. Bathed in blue light, it is just as visible under bright sunlight. Additionally, it also includes a gear position indicator, which is surprising in this class.
Other practical features include an under-seat storage compartment with 18L capacity. It is big enough to store a full-face helmet. The entire bike, however, has not gained any size. At 1962 mm (L) x 711 mm (W) X 1092 mm (H), it is still just as compact. The wheels are also the same as with 17-inch five spoke alloys front and rear with 70/90 tires on the front and 80/90 on the rear.
The Honda Wave 125i weighs little over 105 kg for the single disc variant and 107 kg for the double disc brake equipped variant. With such a low weight to lug about, the engine does not feel underpowered. The underbone frame is suspended over telescopic front forks on the front and double shock absorbers in the rear. It provides stability while also coping with road imperfections. The 1258 mm long wheelbase gives it very good maneuverability. The slim profile of the bike makes it good for filtering through traffic on city roads. The handlebars are at a comfortable height and the seat can accommodate people of most heights.
The engine in the Honda Wave 125i, as the name indicates is a 125 cc air-cooled SOHC unit. Producing 9.19 PS at 7500 rpm and 10.08 Nm of torque at 5500 rpm, it delivers just the kind of performance you’d expect from something like this. It uses Honda’s PGM-Fi for fueling and a 4-speed gearbox for transmission. The fuel tank is surprisingly larger than the usual 4-litre for the bike at 5.2-litre. With a fuel economy figure that reaches as high as 60 kmpl, it equates to an excellent range.
Honda sells the Wave 125i with either a single disc in the front and a drum brake in the rear configuration or a dual disc brake equipped version. Both the configurations are sufficient for their intended purpose.
The Honda Wave 125i, true to its nature and brand name is a very good undergone motorcycle. With dual disc brakes, premium paint schemes, impressive luggage space and fuel efficiency, the Wave 125i overdeliver on its promise. A very good commuter underbone for its price.
The Honda Wave 125i is one of the finest scooters I have ever ridden, and I have ridden quite a few in my lifetime. Ever since I bought the scooter, it has been my favourite. I have the double-disc brake variant, and I can say that this 125cc scooter can be the best experience one can have on the roads.
The Honda Wave 125i has been my companion for over a year now. I came across this bike when I was in need to purchase one for my daily transportation inside and outside the city. To be honest, I wasn’t expecting much from this bike at the given price tag. However, things turned out differently for this bike and me.
The Honda Wave 125i is a great underbone in the entry-level segment. The motorcycle has been a popular choice in the Philippines market and with the latest Wave 125i model and some upgrades in the overall design and graphics the scooter is not just an affordable and economical package for daily commute purposes but also a great blend of style
I came across the Honda Wave 125i for the first time when I was casually walking by my nearest Honda dealer. The Wave caught my attention on the very first sight itself, thanks to the superior design that it comes with. I feel that the vehicle is one of the best products by Hinda and I am confidently saying this
I recently purchased the Honda Wave 125i as a recommendation from my close friend while I was looking for a fuel-efficient bike. I am more than happy that I decided to listen to him as this bike doesn’t only give me great mileage but also offers quality and comfort while riding. Besides its great acceleration, its boot space is commendable
Honda Wave 125i is my second bike and I am loving every bit of it since I bought it. At times I get leg cramps and at such times my leg loses its strength to kick start a vehicle, here the electric start option of this vehicle comes really handy to me. The standard Honda quality and body strength makes
