This all new scooter is believed to be the Honda
Elite 125 FI, which is already on sale in many countries outside India. It
comes with Honda’s trademark PGM-FI Electronic Injection tech and a 125 cc
engine which meets BS6 compliance. Thanks to the high level of refinement due
to BS6, Honda has referenced the same to pin drop silence in the official
invite.
Speaking about the Honda Elite 125 FI BS6 scooter,
it comes with a sharp and edgy design, with 4 colour options of Red, Blue,
White and Black. It gets 12 inch alloy in front (90/90) and 10 inch at the rear
(100/90), wrapped in tubeless tyres. Front gets disc brake while rear gets drum
brake. It also gets CBS (combined brake system), which is now mandatory by law
in India. It gets a fully digital instrument panel, LED lights, enough
under-seat storage space to store a helmet, etc.
Powering the Honda Elite 125 in India could be the
same 125 cc engine which powers the Activa 125. This engine delivers 8.52 hp
and 10.54 Nm. In BS6 format, the figures might change slightly. It gets a
telescopic fork in the front and a monoshock at the rear. Dimensions (L x W x
H) stands at 1735 x 689 x 1118 mm. Wheelbase is 1223 mm, seat height is 772 mm
while ground clearance is 133 mm. Kerb weight is 104 kgs. Fuel tank is 6.4
liters.
If it is the Activa 125, which is launched as the
BS6 on 12th June, features and dimensions will remain same as the current
Activa 125. Thanks to BS6, FI and the addition of new features, the new scooter
will very well become the most expensive Honda scooter to go on sale in India.
