Official spare-parts price reference
Check every product in the dated official online catalogue
Use the Atlas Honda genuine spare-parts price guide for all 13 products visible in the official category on 1 September 2026, their exact CD70 or CG125 application wording and a private inquiry-preparation tool. The PKR 140–3,550 displayed range is not a fitment, stock, labour, delivery or final-quote promise.
Put the 25 mm published seat difference into a real fit check
CB125F publishes 789 mm and CG125 764 mm, but width, shape, suspension sag, mass distribution and control reach affect the rider differently. Use the ten-model height, weight and clearance matrix for the dated figures and a supervised exact-unit fit plan.
CB125F and CG125 both publish 150 kg—but loading still changes the decision.
Use the current load-limit guide and private planner for complete-load arithmetic and the separate passenger, rack, mounting, tyre and control boundaries.
Same minimum depth does not mean interchangeable tyres.
CB125F and CG125 both publish 1.5 mm front and 2.0 mm rear, but their front/rear size and rating markings differ. Use the exact replacement and fitment boundary before a parts request.
