India, July 30 -- Honda has introduced the CB125 Hornet in India, aiming to capture attention in the increasingly competitive 125cc commuter bike segment. While the official pricing will be revealed on August 1, it's evident that the new CB125 Hornet is set to challenge one of the strongest players in this space - the Hero Xtreme 125R. Here's a detailed look at how these two motorcycles compare in terms of engine specs, features, and equipment.

Both motorcycles sit in the premium 125cc bracket but differ slightly in tuning and output. The Honda CB125 Hornet comes equipped with a 123.94cc air-cooled, single-cylinder engine, paired with a 5-speed gearbox. This setup delivers 11 bhp at 7,500 rpm and 11.2 Nm of torque at 6,000 rpm.
