Stunner CBF 125CC Review

As you all know that honda is a great company with great engine power and great fuel economy. I needed a new bike , but my father was not allowing to buy bikes of 150 or greater than 150cc bikes. So i was confused and got on the net to search for more bikes which were less than 150cc. All i got is those crap uncle type bikes which were splendour, passion, CD-Dawn etc. Then when i was just just surfing on tv i just heard that the NEw Stunner of 125cc was launched. I was amazed and quickly increased the volume but was disappointed when i heard the rate. I quickly saved 10k and said my dad to buy it. The very next day my dad nd i went to the showroom and booked a stunner.
After much riding the bike i have posted this review.

CBF Stunner’s Styling: Honda says that many people thought that it was a 180cc bike in the first look. And some thought it was a 220cc one. The bike is quite large for its engine size. The big flaring in front definitely adds a super cool status to the bike. Major part of the Stunner story is its looks. With alloy wheels, Karizma like head lamps, split seats, Honda has made it look like a sports bike for sure. Park the Unicorn and Stunner together and a baby can tell that it wants the Stunner.
CBF Stunner’s Performance: No one can tell that the CBF is the twin brother of Honda Shine, Unless they look into the specifications. I would say that the bike is better suited for city riding than highway cruising. With jump start pickups at lower speeds, the college guy will definitely look like a cool dude on this bike, compared to the guy who drives a Passion Plus, struggling to catch up with Stunner.

The bike gives out 11 bhp at 8000 rpm with its 124.7 cc engine. It does not give me enough pleasure at 80 kmph because the bike is not smooth enough compared to the higher cc counter parts. You would push the engine to the limits only when someone is chasing you, not otherwise!

Pricing :
The on-road price of Honda CBF Stunner ranges from Rs.54,000 to 60,000 in south India. You have options of having disc brakes and self start. The mileage claimed by users is 66 kmpl.

Comfort:
This bike is comfortable as it sees, trust me. Travel 10km or 50km you wouldn't feel the pain in your back as this bike is very comfortable for the teenage bikers.
This bike average speed which i rode is 110 kmph.
