- Ok, so first attempt at a technical vlog. Sound was rubbish and I've had to boost it right up, definitely will remember next time to just use the plug in helmet mic and clip it near my face. Feel free to comment if I've done anything wrong, I can update the description with any extra info. DISCLAIMER - this is how I did it, and this video is purely for entertainment purposes. Any information taken from this video is not necessarily correct, and I will not be held responsible for anyone copying anything shown and causing any damage to their bike, themselves, or anyone/anything else.

Thanks for this 5 years later just did a 2014 model and the cog was upside down too.
great video once i seen the Tea i was like ffs lmao and your cat is so cool. great video helps me learn about all that needs serviceing cheers mate, Ride Safe
Is 0.10 and 0.15 Ok? My feeler gauge wont do 0.08 and 0.12 exactely.. or both times 0.10..
hi spike , im having a problem in the morning or when i start my bike for the first time in the day...... resusulting having to push starting it .... ! wats up ?
Can you please, make a video --- how to change rear chain sprocket...........
thx for video, you help me!! ^^ THANKS
Glad the valves were in specs; it's almost more work to get to them then, just to do the checking.
Here is a note about the cam gear #...
The numbers that seemed to be upside down on the cam gear, or put on upside down as thought by your friend, most likely they are not wrong.
BTW its good to take the spark plug out and go by this as you did every time.. This may help others watching that may do there own.
Here is why, they can line up and still be 180 degrees off, its not that they were put on upside down, just they can end up in two spots and look the same, being it's a 4 stroke ( or 4 cycle motor ) motor is why...Glad they was in spec. yl
Hi Spike, very good and informative video, however I was speaking to a friend of mine who has been an engineer for 25 years and is also a bike enthusiast. He said I don't need to worry about the clearances being 1/100th of a mm out of the recommended range - on an F1 car you may notice it but not on a bike like this. The factory settings are 0.12mm and 0.08mm, mine were 0.13 and 0.09 after 6000 miles so I have left them at that, not going to fiddle unless i have running issues!
Greetings;
I believe that in my first attempt I’ve adjusted the compression side (was following a bad tutorial).
After finding this video I believe everything is ok; however no matter the revolutions both sides now have the same clearances. As far as I recall one shouldn’t have a gap a d the other should have the 0.12 and 0.08mm clearance. Can this be a problem? Thanks in advance
The left side is the exhaust valve (0.12) and the right is the intake (0.08) - No gap = bad time for your valves
you mistook the airbox drain pipe for the crankcase breather, its on the other side under under the throttle body
What is the tool that you use to check the clearances with called? Cheers
feeler gauge
yes, its a lot cheaper. a brand new CBF at my local Honda was £2500, my second hand Vara (2005) was the almost the same price. As I cannot afford to to a bike test and buy a bigger bike i decided on the vara for use for at least another year
May I ask the reason for checking the clearances? Was there a running problem or was it just a peace of mind thing? Been having problems with my sons, runs fine on start up but as soon as it's at it's optimal running temperature it starts playing up as if it's a fueling issue then cuts out, but as soon as it cools down its starts back up again. Been advised it could be the valve clearances. Also replaced the fuel pump and new spark plug and still have the same problem. Any help on this would be great 👍
Did you ever get it sorted? having a similar problem, I’ve tried everything but I’m gonna check the valve clearances today.
The engine is in exploded state, but the "L" sign is still there. No other comment!
miine is four years old ... got piston to change ...and some job ... still works fine...
i was almost going to exchange the PCX125 i had for a CBF, then i saw the Varadero. I now have a Varadero 125. biiiig bike, but has V twin
im the same i always see people riding normally and im thinking, 'go on just rag it a little' love ragging my cbf 125 about ;)
Spikey,
That is a damn shame about the audio on that mate. Maybe you could edit in a voice over because that could have been great!
love you cat
@spike4178
I'd watch it mate, to be sure!
AH ya got a selection box lol
Def a mans pad is that lol where you live ;-)Well done on getting al back together lol
you didn't need to remove the crank bolt,bike on centre stand,1th gear jerk the back wheel
I get more like 85 mpg from it but I do rag it everywhere :) Best thing to do on a 125 haha
I love my CBF125, great fun, good to learn on, cheap to buy and run. Lets you down on overtakes though. I will be a little sad to say goodbye when my first big bike arrives next week.
Mine runs but to start from cold I have to open the throttle. Once it’s warmed up, the bike starts perfect.
Usual cause is the exhaust valve too tight.
C'mon man where is the videos, show some love
if it aint broke then dont fix it
good Video but bad sound, don`t understand one word
Get your ears tested. He is clear as a bell if you understand English English. Maybe you are American.
