Honda PS125i
The new PS125i gathers together the best features of Honda’s mid-sized
scooter line-up in an exciting and stylish new entry vehicle that offers
style, comfort, convenience and dependable economy for delightful days of
commuting, errand-running or carefree riding enjoyment.
Honda PS125i Features
Advanced PGM-FI Electronic Fuel Injection System
Like the current Honda Pantheon and SH125i, the new PS125i features a
fully digital Programmed Fuel Injection (PGM-FI) system that sets the
standard for fuel economy and clean emissions, while providing exceptionally
strong, smooth and reliable performance. Ensuring quick starting and smooth
response, this innovative system compactly integrates the throttle body,
sensors and injector with the digital electronic control unit (ECU) for
both the fuel injection and ignition systems into one compact and lightweight
unit. This fully electronic system is also remarkably efficient in operation,
delivering a precisely timed and metered shot of fuel straight into the
engine’s intake port for optimised power and performance. Economy
and low running costs are especially important to daily commuters, especially
in these times of rising fuel prices, and the new PS125i really stands
out with its miserly fuel consumption and long-term, low-maintenance reliability.
The Lowest Emissions in the 125cc Class
Like several of Honda’s latest fuel-injected scooters and large-displacement
motorcycles, the new PS125i is also equipped with Honda’s most advanced
HECS3 oxygen-sensing catalytic emissions system for the lowest exhaust
emissions in its class. With its electronic circuitry integrated into
the fuel injection system’s throttle body-mounted ECU, this system
monitors the PGM-FI sensors along with an oxygen sensor installed in the
exhaust system to precisely maintain the optimal fuel/air mixture for
its catalyser element to minimise emissions of carbon monoxide (CO), hydrocarbons
(HC) and nitrous oxides NOX), thus meeting the highest standards of environmental
protection and easily clearing the strict limits imposed by the latest
EURO-3 exhaust emissions regulations.
Spacious Riding Comfort
The PS125i’s relaxed and roomy riding position is highlighted by
its plush contoured seat, easy reach to the handlebars and wide, flat
floorboard. This wide, unobstructed floorboard area assures easy foot
positioning freedom and an effortless slide onto and off the seat, certain
to be welcome attractions for female riders. Slim proportions in the vicinity
of the seat assure an easy reach to the ground for riders of all sizes.
Its spacious contoured seat also provides comfortable seating for two
whenever needed, even on longer rides.
Easy-Operation Combined Brake System
Like most of the scooters in Honda’s 125cc lineup, the PS125i features
the enhanced braking control of Honda’s innovative Combined Brake
System. Linking together the operation of a single 220mm hydraulic dual-piston
calliper front disc brake with a 130mm standard, cable-operated rear drum
brake, this system provides both novice and experienced riders with unrivalled
operating ease and effortless control for assured braking control. In
this relatively simple system, the right-side brake lever controls only
the front brake calliper, like a conventional motorcycle brake system.
The left-side brake lever, however, operates not only the rear drum brake,
as in conventional scooter brake systems, it also engages the front brake
calliper by way of an inline equaliser.
