Honda Sh 150 Review

Used Buyer Review

The SH150 is Honda's bread-and-butter urban scooter, and used examples are everywhere for good reason — they're damn near indestructible if maintained properly. The fuel-injected 150cc single pulls cleanly through city traffic, and that underseat storage will swallow a full-face helmet without drama. Ride quality is genuinely impressive for the class; Honda tuned the suspension for real roads, not showroom floors. Buying used, check the front fork seals first — they weep on neglected examples. The CVT belt is a consumable most owners ignore, so budget for a replacement if the service history is sketchy. Rust on the frame around the centre stand mount is a known weakness on older bikes kept outside. The ABS version is worth hunting for; the non-ABS front brake is grabby in the wet. Resale holds strong, which cuts both ways — you won't get robbed buying one, but you won't find desperate sellers either. Expect to pay fair money for a clean example, and don't chase the cheapest bike on the lot.
