Honda Motorcycle & Scooter India (HMSI) has launched the 2025 Shine 100 with a OBD-2B compliant engine at Rs 68,767 (ex-showroom, Delhi) in our country. The motorcycle will be available at all Honda dealer outlets in India, today onwards. Besides equipping the 2025 Honda Shine 100 with a OBD-2B engine, the company has also given it a minor makeover in terms of styling. Being the brand’s entry-level motorcycle in the Indian market, it challenges the likes of Hero HF Deluxe, TVS Radeon and Bajaj Platina 100.
The 2025 Honda Shine 100 design is inspired by the Shine 125 as it flaunts Honda logo and refreshed graphics on the body panels. Riding on blacked-out alloy wheels, it boasts of striking features in the form of an aluminium grab rail, single-piece seat, front cowl and sleek muffler. The motorcycle will be available in five dual-tone colour options namely Black + Red, Black + Blue, Black + Orange, Black + Gray, and Black + Green.
The durable diamond-type frame of the 2025 Shine 100 is suspended by telescopic forks upfront and twin shock absorbers at the rear. As for braking, it gets drum units at both the ends which work in sync with a CBS (Combined Braking System). The rest of the motorcycle is identical to the outgoing model with the same features and equipment.
Honda has updated the 98.98 cc single-cylinder air-cooled engine to meet the upcoming OBD-2B emission norms. Though the top power and peak torque remains the same at 7.3 bhp at 7500 rpm and 8 Nm at 5000 rpm, respectively. The engine is coupled with a 4-speed gearbox.
