CB125F Air Box Modification

- It turns out I didn't need to pull the tank off to do this, but it was one of the things I wanted to figure out how to do on my 2023 Honda CB125F.
It also turns out I didn't need to remove the air box for this modification either, but again, I did it just so I could teach myself how.
Not that I'm going to recommend anyone else to do this, my first impressions of this modification are undeniably positive and I would 100% do it again. - ยานยนต์และพาหนะ

So your getting around 8kph extra thats 5mph extra everwhere you go thats good going bro
To get an extra 8% top speed would mean it's making 16% more power!
I think thats the backfire screen - to prevent a backfire blowing the air filter off it's seal. It's commonly used as a choke point to lower noise emissions, which looks to be the case. Often bikes are made to pass the country with the most stringent international emissions where the bike will be sold, and also with some overlap to futureproof the bike.
U might want to try remodeling the snorkel into a wider or more funnel shape or even remove it to see what effect it has, which might yield even more power.
It should be running richer now so it would be interesting to know if fuel consumption has increased.
It won't be richer it will be running leaner with more air and still the same amount of petrol it will pull abit more through the carb as it can breathe more easily now
@@Motorizedstuff it's EFI
@@Motorizedstuff My mistake.
I just mean the sensors will detect more air and compensate by giving more fuel.
Next thing you should do is get a less restrictive exhaust
@@stephanopapadimitriou4789 I've actually tried but the one I ordered didn't fit the engine and the only actual aftermarket exhaust I can find is Black Widow from the UK, but the cost of shipping almost doubles the cost. I've thought about going to an exhaust shop to get a custom job done, but I still need to save up before I can do that. At least I've still got the slip on exhaust from the one that didn't fit
@NicksBikes mate! can you please make a video on DIY luggage rack for delivery guys. It's really hard to get a suitable rack online for Honda CB 125F. Thanks in advance. Peace ✌
I would if I was clever enough to fabricate something! My solution on one of my 2 stroke motorised bikes was a milk crate! 🤦♀️
@@NicksBikes That's always best L0L. I seriously think there should be a batter cheaper way to install the delivery box on it because I see those poor riders carrying that gigantic hot box on their shoulders while riding. I tried from a guy once and believe me it's really not very safe.
It would be a great help to them I believe if you can figure out something. Thanks anyways. Stay Happy. Have a good one
👍
So now your Honda meets both criteria. When you need to go somewhere, and you want to go somewhere, the trusty Honda CB125F can do BOTH ! would you agree ?
Is Honda, is good.
Nick, this will amuse you, light aircraft with piston engines, use a fuel with an octane rating of at least 100
A 50/50 blend of avgas and standard 95 octane petrol. 😂
Food for thought !
So how does one get one's hands on light a/craft fuel ? Only need 5 litres of it.
I post this only in jest. 😂
Back in the days of "first cars" a mate of mine was driving a HQ and claimed it was running on aviation fuel. He also claimed it was a V8 but it was a straight piped 202. Kids are dumb 🤣
Not relevant but you reminded me of the story
Hey these honda engines can take some crap ya know i had a honda cg 125 and i put k@N air filter and done the carb and honestly it did 78mph rev limiter and i hit the limiter everyday i rode it for like 2 years honest really strong and under powered for durability
What you removed is what they call the spark arrester Hopefully this little Honda will never hiccup and back fire burning the paper filter 😅...well this rarely happens. Did you tested the fuel economy? Did it get worse or not so much of a difference.
I really don't think it affected the economy for better or worse.
Honestly, I'd be impressed with the bike if it held a backfire spark live long enough to travel through the intake tube, through the airbox and into the filter! I genuinely don't think it's as much of an issue of being a "spark arrestor" as it is noise control or some EPA BS. If air filters catching fire was such a common problem, pod filters wouldn't be so popular, I think
@@NicksBikes these type of accidents I saw them happen on Enduro bikes but so far never heard that a common road bike catched fire because of a spark arrester deletion,...so yeah, I think it's all EPA bullshit😅.
*notice* Grom tuning works on CB125F *notice 2* Don´t do what Nick does and keep the Airbox in for less work
Yeah I absolutely did not need to remove the air box or the tank to do this 🤣
Interesting, I wonder if the Grom runs the same ECU? I mean, they're different engines but fundamentally the same
Was that air breather pipe coming from the engine was that connected to the air box bro thats a first for me never seen that before ever normall they just hang them off the back of the engine in case they to much oil in it will just drip out the back of the bike
Pollution control….
I would rip the full air box off and try it with a k@N air filter maby end up jetting up the carb for the extra air possibly be better anyways usually dose but this comment is before I have watched the video watching now lol
It's EFI
Should be a bit faster throttle response at least
@@Motorizedstuff it is, the throttle feel quite a bit twitchier now
Carb seems well bulky i would of though they would of made it as light as possible like
It's EFI
Do you find a difference in fuel economy after this mod ? nice video
Too soon to tell, but not noticeably better or worse. But then, I haven't reset my fuel economy average in about 8000 kilometres now (it's linked to Trip A) and it has been steady at 2.9L/100km, so if it suddenly changes either way, I'll know
@@NicksBikes U might find u use more simply coz if there's more power ur going to use it
@@caveyful yes, but at the same time, it's not like I've dramatically changed the characteristics of the bike. Time will tell
Do you think you could do the same to the kTM lol
Maybe, but the KTM already has an aftermarket air box upgrade - it opens up the filter lid with a chunk of foam instead of a sealed lid. So it's basically the same effect, I think.
But not yet, the KTM still has a few issues to sort before I worry about "improving" it
@NicksBikes true it's good doing stuff like this I always upgrade my engines I find they just work better
@@Motorizedstuff I'm the same. Even my old Fiesta, new off the showroom floor wasn't immune to my tinkering back in the day 🤣
