Honda SH125i 2023

Honda SH125i 2023

The Honda SH125i for the 2020 model year has truly earned the designation "new". While it remains true to its long-standing line, it scores under its newly designed dress with numerous changes that make the already popular city runabout even more attractive. More storage space, low fuel consumption and enough power for everyday life speak for the SH125i, only the lack of the practical glove compartment and the slightly reflective glass of the LC display catch our eye negatively. But that's not enough to depress the positive impression, because the Honda SH remains the pragmatist par excellence that always runs and, above all, functions as you expect it to.

The RC8 from KTM has matured into a good motorbike. Unfortunately, the maturing process has taken a little too long. The engine characteristics are good, the chassis as well and the bike is great to ride both on the country road and on the race track.

Well-tuned suspension elements

fairly agile

acceptable brakes

positive cornering.

Performance could be higher

primarily designed for country roads.
