Honda has officially taken the wraps off the 2025 CB 125 F in Germany, showcasing a refreshed version of its entry-level commuter that now gets both visual and functional upgrades. While the CB 125 F isn’t sold in India under this name, it shares much of its DNA with the Honda SP 125, which recently received an update in the Indian market under the OBD-2B norms.
Design
The 2025 CB 125 F now looks sharper and more premium, thanks to a few key design updates. The new model comes with redesigned tank shrouds that add a muscular appearance, a chrome muffler cover that lends a classy touch, and a cleaner overall profile. These elements enhance the sporty commuter appeal that Honda seems to be going for with this upgrade.
Features
Honda has packed the CB 125 F with features that are quite rare in the 125cc category. It now gets a 4.2-inch full-colour TFT display, which is a massive step up from the basic digital units seen in this segment. Alongside that, the bike is equipped with the Honda RoadSync connectivity suite, allowing riders to connect their smartphones for navigation, calls, and more.
Other modern touches include all-LED lighting with daytime running lamps (DRLs), a USB Type-C charging port for mobile devices, and an automatic start-stop system to save fuel during idle times—particularly useful in urban stop-go traffic.
Engine
At the heart of the CB 125 F is a 124cc single-cylinder engine that makes 10.72bhp and 11Nm of peak torque. The engine meets Euro 5+ emission norms, ensuring it’s ready for the latest environmental regulations. Power is sent to the rear wheel via a five-speed gearbox, which is smooth and efficient for everyday riding.

Pricing
In Germany, the 2025 Honda CB 125 F is priced at EUR 3,199, which roughly converts to Rs. 3.05 lakh. That might sound steep for a 125cc bike by Indian standards, but remember that this is a premium commuter in the European market and comes fully loaded with modern tech.
Colours
The motorcycle is offered in three distinct shades:
- Matt Marvel Blue Metallic
- Imperial Red Metallic
- Matt Axis Gray Metallic
Each colour variant adds its own visual character to the motorcycle, making it appealing to a wider range of riders.
India Connection
While the CB 125 F isn’t officially sold in India, the fact that it’s manufactured here and exported to Europe shows Honda’s confidence in its Indian production capabilities. Many of the design and mechanical updates seen here could eventually trickle down to future updates of Indian models like the SP 125.
The 2025 CB 125 F is a solid package that blends everyday practicality with premium features. Whether it will ever make its way to India in this exact form is unclear, but it certainly gives us a look at the direction Honda is heading in for its commuter range.
