Market and trim notes

This sheet covers the Honda Vario 125 as listed in the Indonesian distributor’s current catalogue. Market-specific equipment can differ from the same nameplate in another country, so the figures are not interchangeable.

What the numbers mean

The 769 mm seat is a middle-of-the-road height: most riders will get the balls of both feet down.

At 111 kg / Vario 125 112 kg it is manageable at walking pace but heavy enough to notice on a slope.

The 5.5 L tank is typical for the class and enough for a week of commuting between fills. The manufacturer does not publish a consumption figure, so this page does not quote a range.

Tyres are 90/80 – 14M/C 43 P Tubeless front and 100/80 - 14M/C 48P Tubeless rear. Check that your local shop stocks both before a long trip.

Ownership and maintenance notes

  • The V-belt and rollers are the parts that change the feel of a CVT scooter. Inspect them at the interval in the owner's manual, and sooner if acceleration flattens or the engine revs without matching speed.
  • Engine oil and the air filter do most of the work in keeping a small scooter consistent. Check the oil level cold, on level ground, and use the grade listed for the model.
  • Liquid cooling adds a coolant level and condition check. Do it when the engine is cold, and never open the radiator cap on a hot engine.

Source and verification

Figures are taken from PT Astra Honda Motor, the Indonesian distributor, on 13 November 2026.
