Honda Motorcycle and Scooter India has announced that its CB Shine motorcycle series has developed a customer base of over 70 lakh. The two-wheeler manufacturer has revealed its Shine series as the market leader in the 125cc motorcycle segment holding a 51 percent market share. It has registered a 10 percent growth against a 2 percent dip in the segment.

Commenting on this achievement, Yadvinder Singh Guleria, senior vice president - sales and marketing, Honda Motorcycle and Scooter India said, “Shine’s outstanding performance, together with the innovation of a Combi Brake System (CBS) with an equaliser differentiates it from other offerings in the segment. Achieving this milestone ahead of Diwali is a great encouragement for us and we are all prepared to fulfil the ever-growing expectations of our customers this festival!”
