Honda CB125E Coming To Australia, Priced Under $2000

A brand-new Honda motorcycle for under $2000. That's no typo, and we're not talking about scooters. The CBR125E is a "proper" motorcycle, and it'll be in Australia early next year for $1990, plus on-road costs.

With the growing interest in switching to motorcycles for the daily commute, Honda has jumped into the breach to sway buyers away from cheap secondhand options.

The naked and upright CB125E is powered by a 124cc air-cooled, single-cylinder engine, with a single-disc brake arrangement up front and drum brakes at the rear.

If you're a first-time rider or just looking for something cheap (but new and safer than a 10 year-old junker), this one might be the way to go.
