Honda CG 125 is a popular motorcycle in Pakistan. Bike price increased...
Let’s start with the body design, where you might expect some exciting changes. However, if by “exciting” you mean adding new stickers, then yes, Honda has done just that. The new model sports flashy stickers, which seem to be the main update, attracting customers despite being the same shape and design as before. It’s like getting hyped for a new movie, only to realize it’s just a remake with a slightly different look.
For those of you who love the details, here’s a closer look at the specs:
Specs | Honda CD 70 2025 | Honda CD 70 2024 |
Dimension (L x W x H) | 1897 X 751 X 1014 mm | 1897 X 751 X 1014 mm |
Ground Clearance | 136 mm | 136 mm |
Frame | Backbone Type | Backbone Type |
Front Tire | 2.25 – 17 (4 PR) | 2.25 – 17 (4 PR) |
Back Tire | 2.50 – 17 (4 PR) | 2.50 – 17 (4 PR) |
Dry Weight | 82kg | 82kg |
Petrol Capacity | 8.5 Liters (1 Liter in Reserve) | 8.5 Liters (1 Liter in Reserve) |
They are not double. The specs are identical, down to the millimeter. If you were hoping for a new look, LED lights, or even a digital dashboard, you might have to keep those dreams on hold for another year—or maybe five.
Coming to the visuals, the black variant seems slightly different as its mudguard now has a traditional chrome color compared to the black mudguards of the 2024 black variant. Also, the red variant appears a bit brighter than its predecessor, but that might just be a difference in the picture and not in the actual colors.
Body is npt the only thing that impress. Honda focused on enhancing the engine and performance? If you were expecting an upgraded powerhouse, you might want to lower those expectations.
Here’s a comparison of the engine and performance between Honda 70 2025 and Honda 70 2024:
Specs | Honda CD 70 2025 | Honda CD 70 2024 |
Engine | 4-Stroke OHC Air Cooled | 4-Stroke OHC Air Cooled |
Displacement | 72 cm³ | 72 cm³ |
Bore & Stroke | 47.0 x 41.4 mm | 47.0 x 41.4 mm |
Compression Ratio | 9.3:1 | 9.3:1 |
Clutch | Multiplate Wet Clutch | Multiplate Wet Clutch |
Transmission | 4 Speed Constant Mesh | 4 Speed Constant Mesh |
Starting System | Kick Start | Kick Start |
Honda’s approach here seems to be, “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.” But honestly, couldn’t they have added something new, like an electric start? It’s 2024, after all. Sticking with a kick start feels a bit like still using a typewriter in the smartphone age.
Finally, some good news! Honda has kept the price unchanged. That’s right! No extra charge for those snazzy new stickers. Here are the prices:
Honda 70 2025 Model Price in Pakistan | Honda 70 2024 Model Price in Pakistan |
Rs.157,900 | Rs.157,900 |
At least you’re not paying more for the “new” model. But this could also be Honda’s way of saying, “We know it’s the same bike, so we’ll keep the price the same too.” Still, fingers crossed they don’t surprise us with a price hike down the road!
So, where does this leave us with the Honda CD 70 2025 vs. 2024 model? If you’ve got a sharp eye for detail or just really like stickers, you might notice a difference. But for everyone else, it’s a case of ‘same bike, different year.’ Honda is sticking to their time-honored tradition of making minimal changes while calling it a new model.
On the bright side, the price hasn’t changed, which is a small win for buyers. However, it’s about time Honda starts listening to its customers and delivers more than just cosmetic tweaks. We can only hope that the next model doesn’t just come with a new sticker, but with some real, meaningful upgrades.
