Questions Before You Buy

The 125cc models (Honda CB Shine SP, Yamaha Saluto 125, Hero Glamour 125, Bajaj Discover 125) generally deliver the best real-world economy, often in the 55–65 km/L range in city use. The 149cc Yamaha FZS Fi V3 uses more fuel but offers stronger highway performance.

For most city and suburban commutes, yes. 125cc bikes are light, efficient and cheap to run. If your route includes long highway stretches or you often carry a pillion, a 150cc bike gives more comfortable overtaking and cruising.

Fuel economy, ride comfort, ease of handling in traffic, reliability, and the availability and cost of service and spare parts. Peak power and top speed matter far less for everyday office riding.

Bikes from brands with wide service networks and inexpensive spares, such as Bajaj and Honda, tend to have the lowest ownership costs. Always check service centre availability near your home and office before buying.
