Is yours an eSP model?. Apparently, fuel efficiency has been improved on this one and it looks like top speed is slightly higher, too, from 100 kmh to 107 according to a review I read yesterday.

The EU regulations on "Light Motorcycles" are about to change so it's quite possible that the newer eSP 125s will be faster.

It looks like it is. But the difference in power is small, so I wonder if there are other changes, for example, in the transmission.

I believe that the whole engine and transmission unit is different including the mounting points.
The ECU may well be different too.

So that means the frame must be too?

Honda hasn't released a microfiche yet, so it's hard to tell the little differences or details. I think most of the frame is the same, but again, without a microfiche, it's impossible to tell.
