                  It has so much pros that we can ignore cons... take testride then decide
                  I owned this this bike for almost 5 years and odometer reading is 81000kms. Pros: 1.Extremely good for daily commute because of its lightweight and Manoeuvrability. 2.Fuel economy is extremely good which is around 60+ kmpl. 3.Does not need much cost to maintain. Just do the regular services and you are good to go. 4.Parts availability is quite good. 5.Also comfortable for long rides upto 100km. cons: 1.Its such parts brakes shoes, racer, chain sprocket, wear out frequently. 2.Rusting started appearing after one year of purchase.

                  My Experience with honda shine
                  It was a decent and nice performing 125cc, and smooth for city and highway rides, nice pick up speed as of a 125ccs, reliability, and also as it was my first bike, that's why I choose this to buy first. Comfort is very nice, I'm thinking it needs a little improvement in braking, but it is good too. As I ride almost 40km daily it's a nice bike, nice acceleration and quick response, no too noisy, just a little vibration issue on high speeds. This is a good bike for beginners, who are learning to ride or even good for job and for people who want comfort and daily travelling, I will not recommend if you want to go high speeds cause braking is not that good and it vibrate at speeds above 60-70km/hr.

                  Easy to drive and comfort
                  Shine is my first motorcycle and it was easy to learn how to ride on it. It is low cc motor cycle so for a beginner it is perfect. There is slight difference in gear compared to a sports or high cc motorcycle but for beginner it is perfect. Handling on the good. Sitting posture good. Riding posture nice. Mileage is good. The ride has been steady and smooth. It moves easily in traffic, stays controlled during turns, and deals with rough patches without shaking too much. Longer rides also feel comfortable, with the engine staying calm and steady. I picked this bike because the seating and control felt just right during the ride. The engine felt smooth, and the handling seemed perfect for my daily routes. It looked like a simple, dependable option for regular commuting.
