Our verdict

Their ex-showroom prices are close enough to ignore, so specification decides it: the Bajaj Pulsar 125 leads on ground clearance and dealer and service reach.

Choose the Bajaj Pulsar 125 if
  • rough, unpaved or flood-prone roads are part of your daily route
  • you want a dealer close enough to visit and negotiate at

Measured: 25 mm more ground clearance; 34 more showrooms in Nepal (182 vs 148).

Choose the Honda Shine BS6 if
  • you want servicing within reach of where you live

Measured: 15 more service centres in Nepal (208 vs 193).

Every figure in this verdict is computed from the table below — the same ex-showroom prices, variant specifications and Nepal service network the page publishes. Nothing here is an estimate, and where a figure is missing on one side the axis is left out rather than guessed.
