A One-sided Battle: Suzuki GSX 125 vs. CB 150F

The all-new GSX 125 was unveiled by Pak Suzuki Motor Company (PSMC) in Pakistan to mixed reviews. Although the bike's futuristic appearance is well-liked by aficionados, its high price has drawn a lot of flak.

The 150cc bike market also has a number of competitors in the same price bracket as the GSX 125. Honda CB 150F is one of its most ferocious rivals. In order to compete with the Suzuki GS 150, Atlas Honda introduced the CB 150F in 2017.

The CB 150F has gained a lot of popularity among enthusiasts since its release. It appears to be one of the top brands in Pakistan's two-wheeler industry and delivers enough power, torque, features, and comfort.

So, is the market share of the Honda CB 150F in danger from the Suzuki GSX 125? Let's contrast the two to determine:

Styling

Suzuki GSX 125

The GSX 125 has a strong street-bike style, beautiful alloy wheels, a brushed aluminum three-piece handlebar, and a dynamic attitude.

The fuel tank's chiseled sidewalls and massive air scoops give it a muscular appearance. The black and chrome panels, the footpeg braces on either side and the big exhaust give the GSX 125 a dynamic appearance.

The tail has body-colored panels on either side, a modern rack positioned in the back, and a current taillight for a crisp appearance.

Honda CB 150F

When CB 150F first appeared, it attracted a lot of attention since it appeared more muscular than its rivals.

It boasts a dynamic fuel tank design with larger air scoops, a diamond-cut headlamp design with twin-LED parking lights, and matte-black alloy wheels in addition to an aggressive posture. A sporty exhaust and a few sharp panels on the side add to the vehicle's dynamic appearance.

The CB 150F has a street bike-like appearance thanks to its raised tail, elegant taillight, and black grab rail.
