Honda SP160 launch Soon

Honda SP160 launch soon, to be offered in two variants

Honda Motorcycle & Scooter India Ltd. has recently launched the Dio 125 scooter in the Indian market.

Now Honda is ready to introduce the new SP160 motorcycle, which is expected to launch in the upcoming festive season in India. The Honda SP160 will share its engine and chassis with the Unicorn.

The SP160, as the name suggests, it will use a 162.7 cc single-cylinder air-cooled engine, which is good enough to produce a maximum power output of 12.9 bhp at 7,500 rpm and 14 Nm of peak torque delivered at 5,500 rpm.

The new SP160 is likely to inherit design elements from its smaller sibling, the SP125. The Honda SP 160 will have a smaller fuel tank capacity of 12 litres and it will run on smaller 17-inch wheels as opposed to the unicorn’s 18-inch wheels.

In terms of braking, the SP160 will get a 276 mm front disc brake. Buyers can choose between a 220 mm disc or 130 mm drum brake for the rear wheel. This means that Honda might offer the SP160 in two different variants – drum and disc.

The report went on to give some interesting information about the upcoming motorcycle. It will be launched during this festive season, more specifically next month and it could be priced at around Rs. 1.15 lakh (ex-showroom).

For your reference, the Honda Unicorn currently costs around Rs. 1.10 lakh (ex-showroom) and the SP 160 could be a slightly premium alternative.
