If everything in life was as dependable and honest as that Honda life would sure be simpler 😂👍
Had one of these in 73 new. Rear mud guards tail lights hand levers and handlebars were constantly being replaced. These bikes are a lot of fun it's amazing any still survive. Iam 64 now but I still got one.
That was my bike when I was a teen, rode the wheels off it, nothing but fond memories.
Had one of these in a 1971 model
Ended up with a 145cc powroll kit and a supertrapp, S&W shocks with a skunkworks system. Schrader air valves on fork caps ,knobbys and
the plastic Preston petty front and rear fenders ,etc ! Rode it all over the place street and trails couldn't kill that cool bike another one that I wish I had never sold 😖😄
Growing up in the Appalachians of NY these were great bikes for the woods..Never quit..The 250 was a tank....Good find..
Man,my buddy had one of these, I was riding on the bike with him when we went down in the gravel driveway, I still have a scare and gravel in my knee from 1973 !
What a great old Honda!
I love that Honda
This was the first bike I had as a kid. Wow that brings back some memories. Blessings from Orlando Florida.
Brings back a lot of memories. I had the model below this the SL 100 in candy apple red. Had some great times on that bike. That would have been about 1971. My first real motorcycle!
A++ Bullet proof Honda right there.
I got just that bike back in 1972 or 3, replacing a yellow sl70 that I'd outgrown. I rode it just about every day in the part of rural Ky where I lived. I kept off the main roads, but rode it without incident on the back roads without tags (I was 14); the local police never said a word. I doubt that's possible now. Anyway, it's amazing to see this bike now; every feature seems utterly familiar. Hard to believe this ones in such great shape after nearly half a century. Thanks Kaplan Cycles! You guys are great.
My Dad bought me one of these for Christmas 🎄 when I was 13 years old. I have so many memories of this bike. All good. Thanks for the video 🙏🏼
Mine was a 1972 if i remember
Great looking bike. 58 years old now and remember my 76 xl 125. Was the best wheelie bike I have ever been on. With a very slight uphill grade you could wheelie them easily for a mile.
You know what they say about old Hondas they never die they just trade owners
I had sl 100 with dome piston & a bozony pipe. I out runned the cops. Cherry hill rd 1974 14teen yrs old. THANKS. God bless the good old days. The thrust God bless
That was my first bike ,loved it bought it in1974,the british versions exhaust came round under ya thigh.
Great memories,my mate had a Yamaha dt125.
Great fun bikes
I mowed my neighbors lawn twice for this in 1983 when I was 9. Damn fun little scooter and took everything a 9/10 year old could toss at it
Awesome bike , cant cant fault the build quality ,good tail light up grade , long ago had an almost new XL125K , happy memories .
Had this same bike. 10 years old couldn't register lol stripped everything off that I didn't need but saved everything. Preston petty fenders and full knobbies and went up 4 teeth on rear sprocket. Wouldn't do 55 miles anymore but what a freaking woods bike and would climb up the side of a house if you could stay on it. Lol
Back then word was, the SL100 was faster. Dirt Bike Magazine called the 125 "turtle chaser". Always loved the SLs, restored me a 71 back in the early 90s.
I had the 73 sl 175, good memories.
Friend of mine has that same bike here in sandy uk.its nearly finished..thought I'd never see it another one again...soooooo rare
Love your videos of old bikes I had one of these and did the same thing you was doing wheeley it for miles
Super cool, back then they knew how to build a small bike.
Only if I was able to ride those bikes I’d be ripping them the same as you I promise!!!✅🎯🦾
Nice!!
The power of Japan is with him.
Ken trying to scrape up that rear fender lol
Hi guys love your videos it’s definitely making me wonder why you don’t get any Kawasaki kx80 D2 1982 coming though your museum the holy grail in 80s motocross bikes I own a prestige one only seen may be three in show room condition 👍👍
Look like Sr had way too much fun on it.
I wish I were in your garage Captain America 👍👍👍👍👍👍🏍🏍🏍🏍🛵🛵🛵
Oh yeah... I had dreams about owning one.. wound up with a later XL125
Buena moto mi bro
Awesome 😊 👍 Hondas...
😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
wheeling like that ken .are you wanting to be one of the purple helmets lol
mantap OM
Ojalá en mi país hubieran repuestos y máquinas así, tengo una yamaha maxim x 750 del 85 que no tiene carburadores y lleva 7 años parada por eso
I guess these would really be the beginning of the XL's and XR models? That's what I'm thinking..Anyone chime in...
now theres a kid, stuck in a adult body.. lol.
Recently purchased a 1996 cb750 should I run vp110 fuel in it?
Is it the same as a xl125s basically
XL had two piece head. Cams are not interchangeable between.
How do you know if an sl125 is 1972 or 1973?
This looks like overhead cam. Do you know what the horsepower is for the pushrod 125 and ohc version the latter seemed a good bit faster although people with cg125 claimed they were just as fast. Are the brand new air cooled 125 cb125f ybr125 etc closer in performance to the ohv or ohc. My dad's garage is still full of old honda,'s. Got a cd175 (71) cb175(76) cbx550f2 (81) cb125rs (83) xl250r(82)
I have dt 125mx yamaha 1981 from Ireland
Don't think Honda did a 2 stroke 125 trail bike did they ? There was the Yamaha DT Suzuki TS Kawasaki KE Honda were always trying to complete with 4 strokes even the cb125t super dream was trying to compete with the rd/GT kh all 2 strokes
did ya stop filmimg to tell the guy you were filming lol some people just dont get it
Don’t give Larry a ride please
That tailight is ugly. US models have different exhausts than Australia.
Nobody wanted a honda back in the days cause they wehre slow as fuck in comparison to some 2 stroke suzukis or yamahas
