I had a '74 dt100, $549.00 for 13th birthday. Burned a hole in the piston. Had it bored with new piston, light porting, expansion chamber, and proper carb jetting. That thing woke up and would top out 65-70mph. Loved that bike, wish I had it now to restore.
Hello, I'm James Crahen, the son of Christopher Crahen and not the father mentioned in his comment. Your motorcycle is great and looking wonderful! Also, many other Crahens are around our world; have you seen Christopher Crahen's wolf video, or his johnboat video? Or how about Heidi Crahen's Ina Garten awkward lip readings? Again, lovely motorcycle!
Ja tive uma CB 125s ao inves de azulzinha uma verdinha que e bem mais dificil de se ver tal como nos videos tal como de verdade. Uma verdinha extraterraquinhazinha. Tenho muitas saudades das aventuras que ela me ocasionava e as viajens que muito fiz com ela para todos os cantos do brasil. A honda nesta epoca era bem mais contemplada das marcas de motocicletas pois tinha muitas famas de duradouras e bem mais possantes do que as outras marcas dizendo quem tinha terem uma alta bem mais veloz do que as Yamahas e Suzukis e kawazakis pois seus motores fundiam bem mais facilmente do que as hondas. As hondas CBS eram bem mais pesadas e bem mais altas pois precisava se ter bastante altura bastante forcas para aguenta las e clikalas pois realmente com um starter era bem maior os seus precos no mercados e bem mais dificieis de serem compradas nas cidades dos interiores do brasil precisando ir apressa las e compra las e velas pessoalmente geralmente em Sao paulo. Capital. Precisando atravessar a Presidente dutra ate Sao paulo. Capital. As hondas tinham bem mais numerosas nas cidades pelos seus precos serem bem mais baratinhos de se adquirirem do que as marcas mais caras como Yamaha Suzuki Kawazakis e muitas outras importadas geralmemte do Japao. As estradas se enchiam de muitas Ganges e muitas passeatas na copa do mundo onde o Brasil geralmente era campeao. Fez de tudo para voltar naqueles tempos aoende tudo era sonho e felicidade. Assim meu amigo voce precisa se atualizar disto porque quem vive de antiguidades e museu. Va em frente nao olhe para tras e mantenha a cabeca erguida. Com sucessos de campeao voce tera que me prometer nunca mais pisar na bola taaaaaas.?.?.?.?.?.?. Assim o tempo pode passar pra sempre sem brigas ( Desavencas ). Nunca mais. Com certeza isto sera novo e bem melhor e mais feliz do que aqueles tempos aoende o bicho pegava. Promete.?.?.?.?.?.?. Um abraco para todos aqueles que ja tiveram moto e que desejam terem uma nova pois ja nao tem mais hoje em dia. Eu prometo um novo presente caro carissimo para cada um que me seguirem a risca.

I bought this same model in 1978 when I was 15 to ride back and forth to work and school. As soon as you started it I immediately knew that sound and it brought back a lot of memories! Thanks for posting!
My father, James Crahen, bought a Honda Scrambler back in the early 70s while stationed in the Philippines. He disassembled it and mailed it piece by piece to my mother up in Caribou Maine (Air Force base). When he got home from the war, he reassembled it and we all enjoyed it. He recently sold it (new condition, with 600 miles) to Kaplan Motorcycle Museum in Rockville, CT. Happy to know other Crahens have and enjoy their Honda's. Your bike is cherry. Enjoy!
I saved up my money and bought that same bike in 1975 for 575.00 including PA sales tax. I had my best memories riding our bikes with all the kids in the neighborhood. Then the cops started breaking are balls and kept given us tickets because they weren't tagged and we were under age. I was thirteen years old. That's when my dad made me sell it. Because of all the fines. Just brings back good memories. Good to see the bikes are still around.
Same here - I had the green one, one year later. Now I bought one just like that for grins, and as a pit bike for when I am racing cars. So many guys in the 40s to the 60s stop me and smile.. brings them memories, and just love it when I say "I bought it to use it - take it for a spin!"
@@runningcreekcustoms5265 I agree.....look at the clear fuel line.....kinda pinkish color fuel, no dark green oil color as it should be......Poor engine aint gettin no erl, and no smoke at all as you said.............a slow torturous death. I cant bear to watch it......Im gonna have nightmares!
+Keelan Coates I've heard the second hole was originally designed for a decompressor. My understanding was that a second spark plug could take the place of the decompressor and could be used as a spare in case you were to foul a plug while out riding.

Muy bonita y comoda .
Old is gold always
Incredible
It's a 2 stroke ... I don't think you know it needs Oil
it has an autolube oil pump and reservoir. the oil and gas mixes in the carburetor.
Is it air cooled or liquid cooled?Whats the top speed of this bike?
It’s air cooled. Does about 50 - 55
@@american0153 50-55mph?
I had one it could go 60 mph.

Had this exact model and color as a teen. So much freedom!

Whats the difference between the cb125 and the cb125s?

My parents wouldn't get me one for that very reason. Made me resent them big time...the injustice of it all. I never recovered.

How much did you get for it? What a beauty!
Sounds like maybe a piston wrist pin is wearing out, or maybe a main bearing, or just plain ole piston slap from a worn piston?
Sounds to me like its not getting two stroke oil and being lubricated. Also why its not smoking at all.
Worn small end bearing more than likely, that or piston slap.
@@runningcreekcustoms5265 Or he is running that piss-poor Ethanol gas........only Non Eth + Marvel Mystery Oil + top quality 2 stroke erl in my bikes.
@@american0153 Now thats a well-tuned ear you have........pegging it to the small end bearing, and you are most certainly right.

Are you trying to sell this or just showing it off? Great bike
Thank you! I made this video before selling the bike last summer.
Why is there 2 spark plugs and only one wire

+Joseph Merrill neat! I'm trading an old car for a 79 dt100
+Keelan Coates Awesome! They are really fun motorcycles.
