    I have it since last December and no regrets at all, it's true that it is not a fast machine but it is a freaking tank, hard as nails, fun to ride, really forgiving with begginers, cheap to maintain and feed. I'm liking that blue.

    It most favorite bike now in India, for its super Mileage and low service cost. some TH-camrs in India did 3000-4000 km of Long Ride to Himalayas. and it is named as Honda SP 125, and price around 1300+ USD. but now it has a competitor it is TVS Raider 125

    Can I ask about your service package? Are all compulsory service costs included? I bought one without the service package a few years back and I got rinsed every time the bike had to go into the service required to maintain the warranty. On the tyres. I definitely agree. Nothing is wrong with them until you go over metal drains in the rain or even worse in cold wet conditions. I have had several occasions where the bike slid, but thankfully I caught the slide and stayed upright. My advice, if this bike is what you need for your journey in and around town, then it is the bike for you. Had an interesting experience on the older CBF125. In really hot weather, the bike would kangaroo as the engine cut on/off as it is only air cooled. I am sure the newer CB125F doesnt have this issue. If you need to go bigger, then use it to get some experience and sell on, using the funds to get a full licence like I did. Stay safe brother.

    Cracking bike, I had one myself up until January this year when I moved onto the 500cc version. Fun and cheap to run bike, just not the fastest but its not all about the speed. Enjoy it!

    The only thing wrong that Honda did on this machine is giving it a transfomer style instead of classic style, the tire width and size are adequate for the power of that engine, and speaking of the engine It's super easy to maintain and service, even the valve adjustment is old school and simple, the the cb125r it's better on paper but this one is the real workhorse, it can also take you places where the road ends.
    Regarding the brake lever angle adjustment, you can undo the screw holding brake master cylinder and adjust the angle as you wish, don't worry about the brake reservoir, as long as its full of fluid it won't affect the brake s I'm sure you won't need to rotate it that much.

    Lovely in this colour quite fancy one of these as an eco bike and it should hang onto its value if the mileage doesn't get too high. Might get me a test ride in Seotember big attraction is the mpg and brand reliability and who wouldn't want better rubber.

    keep the videos coming mate keep us updated on your journey 👍 i am 17 and looking forward to getting my cbt done and most likely getting a cb125f for my first bike - insurance is looking tough with it being around 2.5k a year cheapest. hopefully it comes down over time

    I really like that colour. I bought mine sight unseen from a dealership over the phone and only asked about the colour AFTER I'd put down a deposit 😅
    I ended up with the dark metallic grey one, which I quite like, too.

    Nice colour choice specialy in real life but you have to work on your camera focus.The Rearbrake is fine but it suffers of an lack in Feedback from the Offset in the Pedal so you have her push quiet a bit until she fully works. And you have to watch out you can miss the Pedal even entirely. If you than Slam the Frontbrake like in an Emergency she will do an Stoppie and that would be not one that you get controlled. And before you get asked Topspeed is 115kp/h - 72 mp/H indicated Speed or 105 kp/h - 65 mp/H Real World on GPS than is restricted by Electronics and nope an Sprocket Change will not change anything that only works on her predecessor. It´s a fun cheap to run bike and frogiving to some degree when you handle her right but she can also be the Terror of the 1000cc Club in Twisties
