honda shine is a decent and good performer among the 125cc bikes. gear shifting is smooth, seatig is comfortable, mileage is ok, moreover copassenger gets comfortable journey due to better shock absorber.

Resale value stands top for Honda……. that’s good to hear, But one who cares about performance wont even think of reselling the great performer (Yamaha Gladiator). Who cares the resale value. The one who tries to resell is one who is fed up with his ride…………..

hi dear my bike is shine & my friends bike is gladiater.Its better go for GLADIATOR its good in pick up, good in mileage and looks good compare to SHINE.hey ur compare is wrong.because shine mileage is not 45-50. shine mileage is 55-60 in city & out of 60-65.But gladiater mileage only 45-50 only km in city & out of 50-55km.or price compare to shine price is 53000rs. & gladiater price is 56000rs.shine pick up is more than gladiater. shine suspension is very good compare gladiater. honda spare part is available but yamaha spare part is not avi. quickly.

I am a gladiator customer and i am well satisfied with the ‘JOSH MACHINE’. It gives more than any bike in 125CC segment can give . So my opinion and comment towards those who purchase their first bike, blindly go for YAMAHA GLADIATOr, Life’s RoKZZZZZZZ
