The Honda Click 125 starts at ₱82,400 SRP in the Philippines, with the Smart Edition at ₱86,900. It is a 125cc automatic scooter weighing just 111 kg with a low 769 mm seat and a claimed 49.3 km/L — which makes it the easiest and cheapest way to get around Metro Manila on two wheels. If you want to try one before buying, we rent Click 125-class scooters from ₱525 a day, the lowest rate in our fleet.

Verified 3 August 2026. At ₱82,400 the Click 125 is the cheapest new machine in this comparison set by a wide margin — roughly ₱26,500 below a Click 160 and ₱43,500 below a Yamaha Aerox. Dealer promos, provincial pricing and financing terms will move the figure, so confirm before you commit.
Honda Click 125 specifications
| Engine | 125cc, liquid-cooled eSP |
|---|---|
| Power | 8.26 kW |
| Claimed fuel economy | 49.3 km/L (WMTC) |
| Transmission | Automatic V-Matic CVT — no clutch, no gears |
| Seat height | 769 mm |
| Kerb weight | 111 kg |
| Fuel tank | 5.5 litres |
| Seats | 2 (rider and one passenger) |
Two figures do the heavy lifting here. 111 kg makes this the lightest machine of any we compare — 5 kg under a Click 160, 19 kg under an Aerox — and light weight is worth more in Metro Manila than horsepower is. And 49.3 km/L claimed means the 5.5-litre tank goes a genuinely long way for city use.
The 769 mm seat is low enough that most riders will flat-foot it comfortably — noticeably more accessible than an Aerox at 790 mm.
Standard or Smart Edition?
The ₱4,500 step buys three things:
- Honda Smart Key. Keyless operation — the bike unlocks and starts with the fob in your pocket. Genuinely convenient, and it means no key to fumble for in the rain.
- Idling stop-start. Cuts the engine at a standstill and restarts on throttle. Saves fuel in heavy traffic, which Metro Manila supplies in abundance.
- Built-in alarm. A deterrent, not a guarantee, but useful.
For ₱4,500 — about 5% of the purchase price — the Smart Edition is easy to justify if the budget stretches, mainly for the anti-theft element. Both variants share the same engine, chassis, weight and economy, so there is no performance reason to choose between them. It is purely convenience and security.
Click 125 versus Click 160: the honest comparison
| Click 125 | Click 160 | |
|---|---|---|
| Engine | 125cc | 157cc |
| Kerb weight | 111 kg | 116 kg |
| Seat height | 769 mm | 778 mm |
| Fuel tank | 5.5 L | 5.5 L |
| SRP from | ₱82,400 | ₱108,900 |
| Rental | From ₱525/day | ₱850/day |
The gap is ₱26,500. What it buys is highway ability — the 160 holds expressway speeds with reserve, especially two-up, where the 125 is working near the top of its range.
Be honest about your actual riding:
- Short city hops, mostly solo, rarely above 60 km/h? The 125 is the correct answer. The extra 32cc goes unused and you keep ₱26,500.
- Regular expressway stretch, or a passenger most days? Step up. A 125 works hard in those conditions and you will feel it.
Most Metro Manila commuting genuinely falls into the first category. The Click 125 is under-bought and over-criticised — for the riding most people actually do, it is enough bike.
What it costs to run
The Click 125 is about as cheap as motorcycling gets in the Philippines. Budget for annual LTO registration, insurance beyond the TPL minimum, scheduled oil changes, and CVT belt and roller service — the item owners defer until the transmission starts slipping.
Consumables are cheap: small tyres, small brake pads, and parts availability is excellent because the Click is one of the most common scooters on Philippine roads. Any roadside shop can work on one, which is worth more than it sounds when something goes wrong far from home.
At a claimed 49.3 km/L it is the most economical machine we cover. We have not printed a peso-per-litre figure — Philippine pump prices moved sharply through 2026 and any number here would date quickly.
What it is like to ride
Light, narrow and utterly undemanding. The Click’s whole character is that it asks nothing of you: no clutch, no gears, no weight to manage at walking pace, no intimidating power delivery. You get on and go.
In dense traffic that is exactly right. It filters through gaps a bigger scooter would not fit, parks anywhere, and is easy to paddle backwards out of a tight spot.
Where it runs out is sustained speed. On an expressway, particularly with a passenger or into a headwind, the 125 is near its limit and will feel strained. It is not unsafe, it is simply working hard. If that describes your commute, the 160 exists for a reason.
Buying used: what to check
The Click is everywhere, which means the used market is deep — and full of ex-delivery bikes with enormous mileage. Be careful:
- Delivery-fleet history. Couriers favour the Click for its economy. Those bikes cover huge distances in stop-start traffic. Ask directly what the bike was used for; a vague answer is an answer.
- CVT behaviour. Accelerate from a standstill. Slipping, shuddering or whining means belt and roller wear.
- Odometer versus condition. A bike showing low mileage but with worn footboard, grips and seat has probably had its clock addressed. Trust the wear, not the numbers.
- Flood damage. A low scooter in a flood-prone city. Check for silt in recesses, corroded connectors and moisture in the cluster.
- Smart Key function, if buying a Smart Edition — confirm the fob works and ask whether a spare exists. Replacements are not cheap.
- OR/CR in the seller’s name, with matching engine and chassis numbers.
With a new Standard at ₱82,400, the margin for a used bargain is thin. A tired ex-delivery Click at ₱55,000 needing CVT work is not the saving it appears to be.
Click 125 versus the 155cc Yamahas
People cross-shopping a Click 125 are usually also looking at a Yamaha. The gap is larger than the badge suggests:
| Click 125 | Aerox 155 | NMAX 155 | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Engine | 125cc | 155cc | 155cc |
| Kerb weight | 111 kg | 130 kg | 131 kg |
| Seat height | 769 mm | 790 mm | 770 mm |
| SRP from | ₱82,400 | ₱125,900 | ₱155,900 |
| Rental | From ₱525/day | ₱750/day | ₱950/day |
The Click 125 is 19 kg lighter than an Aerox and ₱43,500 cheaper. That is not a small difference — it is the gap between a scooter you can wheel around a crowded parking area one-handed and one you have to think about.
What the Yamahas give back is speed, and in the NMAX‘s case a much bigger fuel tank and more comfort over distance. The Aerox gives sharper handling and sportier styling but has the tallest seat of the group at 790 mm.
For pure city commuting on a budget, the Click 125 is hard to argue against. For anything involving regular distance or highway speed, it is the wrong tool.
Why the Click is the default Philippine scooter
Walk down any street in Metro Manila and count the Clicks. There is a reason it outsells nearly everything, and it is not marketing:
- Parts are everywhere. Any roadside shop stocks Click consumables. When something fails 200 km from home, that matters more than a spec sheet.
- Everyone can fix one. Mechanics have worked on thousands. Diagnosis is fast and labour is cheap.
- Resale is strong. Deep demand means a used Click sells quickly at a predictable price — you are not stuck with it.
- Running costs are minimal. Small tyres, small pads, excellent economy.
Those four things are worth more in daily ownership than a few extra horsepower. It is an unglamorous argument, but it is the correct one for most riders.
Renting a Click 125 in Manila
We rent four Click 125-class scooters — the cheapest entry into our fleet:
| Honda Click 125 V2 | ₱525 per day |
|---|---|
| Honda Click 125 V3 | ₱575 per day |
| Honda Click V2 with Top Box | ₱600 per day |

Note on our rental units: these are earlier-generation Click 125s, not the 2026 model. The riding experience — light, automatic, easy — is the same, but you will not find the 2026 bike’s Smart Key or its latest instrument cluster on our rentals. If you are renting specifically to evaluate the current model before buying, factor that in.
Every rental includes one helmet, a phone holder, 250 km of daily mileage and TPL insurance. We are open daily 6:00 AM to 11:00 PM. Bring a valid driving licence covering motorcycles, two government-issued IDs, and the refundable deposit — full details on the rental requirements page.

Frequently asked questions
How much is a Honda Click 125 in the Philippines?
The 2026 Honda Click 125 Standard starts at ₱82,400 SRP and the Smart Edition at ₱86,900. Dealer promos, provincial pricing and financing terms will change what you actually pay. Rent2Ride Manila rents Click 125-class scooters from ₱525 per day in Makati if you want to try one first.
What is the difference between the Click 125 Standard and Smart Edition?
The ₱4,500 step adds Honda’s Smart Key for keyless operation, an idling stop-start system that saves fuel in traffic, and a built-in alarm. The engine, chassis, weight and fuel economy are identical, so there is no performance difference — it is convenience and security only.
Click 125 or Click 160 — which should I buy?
The gap is ₱26,500 and what it buys is highway ability. Choose the 125 if your riding is short city trips, mostly solo, rarely above 60 km/h — which describes most Metro Manila commuting. Choose the 160 if you have a regular expressway stretch or carry a passenger most days, where a 125 works near its limit. Renting both for a day each settles it: ₱525 and ₱850 respectively.
Is the Honda Click 125 good for beginners?
It is one of the best beginner options available here. At 111 kg it is the lightest scooter in its class, the 769 mm seat lets most riders flat-foot comfortably, and it is fully automatic with no clutch or gears. You still need a driving licence covering motorcycles, and Metro Manila traffic demands respect regardless of the bike.
How fuel efficient is the Honda Click 125?
Honda claims 49.3 km/L on the WMTC cycle — the most economical figure among the scooters we cover. With a 5.5-litre tank that gives genuinely useful city range. Real-world consumption depends on traffic, load and how hard you ride.
Can the Honda Click 125 go on the expressway?
It will reach expressway speeds, but it works near the top of its range to hold them, especially two-up or into a headwind. For occasional use that is fine; for a daily highway commute the Click 160 or a 155cc machine is the more comfortable tool. Note also that expressway access rules for smaller-displacement motorcycles vary — check the current rules for the specific road you plan to use.
Can I rent a Honda Click 125 in Manila?
Yes. Rent2Ride Manila rents four Click 125-class scooters from ₱525 to ₱650 per day from our Makati stall, open daily 6:00 AM to 11:00 PM. Each includes one helmet, a phone holder, 250 km of daily mileage and TPL insurance. Note our units are earlier-generation Clicks rather than the 2026 model.
