Honda SH 125i weight overview

WHAT THIS MEANS

The weight is relatively manageable, so the bike should demand less effort than a heavyweight machine when backing up, parking or making slow-speed corrections. The comparison uses dry weight because a usable wet/running figure was not supplied, so the actual ready-to-ride motorcycle will be heavier.

What the weight numbers tell you

Using a model-level dry weight comparison, the Honda SH 125i is heavier than about 52.1% of 70 Honda scooters with compatible weight data.
The listed fuel tank capacity is 1.98 US gal (7.5 L). A full tank of gasoline is estimated to weigh about 12.3 lb (5.6 kg), which helps explain part of the difference between dry and ready-to-ride mass.
Where both power and weight are available, the model works out to 4.54 hp per 100 lb. This makes cross-size comparisons more meaningful than raw horsepower by itself.

Honda SH 125i weight FAQ

What is the Honda SH 125i dry weight?

The available dry weight is 280 lb (127 kg). Actual ready-to-ride weight will be higher after fuel and operating fluids are added.

Is the Honda SH 125i lighter or heavier than other Honda scooters?

Weight is broadly typical for the category, landing around the 52nd percentile in this model-level Honda comparison.

How much does a full tank add to the Honda SH 125i?

Based on the supplied 1.98 US gal (7.5 L) tank capacity, the gasoline itself weighs about 12.3 lb (5.6 kg) when full. This helps explain part of the difference between dry and ready-to-ride mass.

What is the combined Honda SH 125i and rider weight?

Using the model’s representative dry weight and a 180 lb rider, the combined bike-and-rider mass is about 460 lb (208.6 kg) before riding gear, luggage or a passenger.

What is the Honda SH 125i power-to-weight ratio?

Available model-year data produces 4.54 hp per 100 lb. It shows engine output relative to motorcycle mass rather than just quoting peak horsepower. That places it around the 63rd percentile within the compatible Honda scooter power-to-weight comparison.

Is the listed Honda SH 125i weight ready to ride?

The published usable figure is dry, not curb weight. A simple dry-plus-full-fuel estimate is 292.3 lb (132.6 kg), but that still is not a substitute for an official wet/curb specification.

How much heavier is the Honda SH 125i with a full tank?

Using the listed dry weight plus the calculated fuel mass, the estimated weight with a full tank is 292.3 lb (132.6 kg). That still may not equal official curb weight because dry-weight definitions can exclude other fluids or equipment.

What is the Honda SH 125i torque per 100 lb of bike weight?

Where compatible torque and weight figures are available, the model works out to 2.92 lb-ft per 100 lb. This gives more context than torque alone because it relates engine twist to the mass it has to move.

How many cc does the Honda SH 125i have per pound?

The available figures work out to 0.45 cc per lb. This is not a performance rating, but it is a useful way to compare engine size against total motorcycle mass.

Motorcycle specifications can vary by model year, market, equipment and the exact dry/curb-weight definition.
