2018 Honda CB125R Review - My First Motorbike

- My first motorbike review of my Honda CB125R. As a learner rider this is an ideal first motorbike and a really reliable sound commuter bike. Join me for a ride before I complete my MOD 1 and MOD 2 and move up to a bigger motorbike :D
As far as 125cc bikes go, this is a really grown-up looking bike with the dimensions of a much larger bike. Honda have done a great job growing the design of the Neo Sports Cafe style from this, all the way up through to the CB1000R. If you want a easy to ride bike that will give you fun and enjoyment no matter what the weather, this is your machine. Good for commuting, good for a blast (not fast though).
All my motorbike clothes are Alpinestars and have suited me through all seasons over the last twelve months.
Please leave comments, leave a like and subscribe if you would like to know more about this bike and what I am going to get next....

This was my first bike but a 2020 model and in the very short time I had it I loved it. These are ultra reliable machines and also hold their value so I'd recommend anyone to get one. I'm now on a CB650R and again that's a quality machine
Nice job for your first video. Very informative. Have decided after 20+ years of procrastination (I'm 48!) that 2021 is the year I finally learn to ride and I'm definitely going to get this Honda for my first 6-12 months on the road. Good luck with your TH-cam project and stay safe. 👍
Thanks very much, very kind. It’s a great bike and learning to ride is one of the best things I’ve ever done - I enjoy it in all weather but on a sunny day it’s incredible. Be warned though - it’s an addictive hobby 😜. Cheers.
I fully expect to get addicted. I've already gotten addicted to all motorbike-related videos on TH-cam in the past few months so there'll be no hope for me when I get on two wheels!😄
2 questions: A- Did you pass all your subsequent tests? B- Did you get a bigger bike (and if so, what was it?)
Safe riding 👍
Just got mod 2 left. Was delayed cus of covid. I have my eye on a few models but love the Street Triple RS abs the new monster.
Really good video for your first attempt, easy on the ear clear voice. I’m trying to decide what 125 to get 👍
Thanks very much
I am ordering a 2021 blue one tomorrow I hope, great video mate it really helps
Thank you :) enjoy it
Great video , really informative and no nonsense, you really come over well and make some great and sensible points thanks so much for doing this 👍
Thanks very much! :)
Beautiful towns.
Great vid man I'm going to get the 2020 version in a few months and i can't wait
Thanks :) it’s a great bike. Done me well for the last 18 months. So cheap to run, zero issues with, best of all doesn’t look like a 125
Did you get it?
@@ontwopegs1933 no unfortunately not because honda is having delivery problems and i needed a bike asap so i had to get the mt 125
How is it?
@@ontwopegs1933 it's my first bike so i don't really have anything to compare it to but i can say it is a darn good bike 👌
Easy solution small magnet over the key hole done ^^
Came across this video looking for reviews as I’ve just put a deposit down on a 2020 CB125R, I just so happen to live in Weston too 😂. Great video though, really helpful!
I’ll be getting back on the bike. Give me a holler!!!
Just bought one these today! It’s being delivered next week :)
Nice one! Well done, really hope you enjoy it. I passed my MOD 2 this week so I will be changing soon. But she has been a real joy for the last two years.
Awesome work mate 👍🏻
Cheers :)
Real thorough review, thanks :)
Thank you. It was a great bike. Now I’ve passed my big test I have a bigger bike but this did me well for two years in all weather
Thanks a lot for the review.... it had the vital information I was looking for.
Thanks so much for the feedback! :) it’s a great bike and even though I have now got a bigger bike I do miss it. Look out for my next one of my new bike BMW F900R ( with some nice upgrades)
you mentioned a few things about the rear, would have been good to see what you wer talking about
Thanks. If you look at photos of a standard model you will see that the license plate holder is really long. It really spoils the look of the bike in my opinion.

Great video mate, thinking of getting this myself, looks great for a 125,
On another note, for a first motovlog video how come you never continued do more videos,
Good question. Wanted to do more but lock down y know? I upgraded to a bmw f900r then sold it and my car for a m135 so back In the market for a bike. May do some test rides? - what’s ur thoughts?
Rather interesting. I'm considering taking up biking and would love to know any things to be aware of from someone who only drives. Pros/cons etc.
Simply - do it. Amazing. Just know that the testing system in the uk is lengthy. But we’ll worth it. Start out small. Take time on that then move up. A 900cc is something u really need to control.
Great video mate, got my CBT booked and my eyes on one of these. Contemplating whether to wait until i'm 24 to do a combined course, or to do the tests separately. Definitely finding the whole license process confusing!
Hey mate. Thanks. Got plans for many more when I can get out test riding etc. So u need to do ur CBT regardless. Then if u do direct access post 24 it combines all 3 of your theory mod 1 and mod 2 I think. There’s a handy tool on DVLA that explains it based on your age. Regardless though I would just do it. This is a great bike to learn your craft on but once u ride a bigger one in your lessons you will find that much easier. For me it came down to bigger bikes having a lower centre of gravity. But- this bike is great for commuting and blasting around on. Plus it doesn’t look like a 125. Best of luck with it, excited for you :)
@@ontwopegs1933 Cheers mate, just had a quick look and can see that the A2 is quite easy to get after my CBT as I'm over 19, I initially thought it only covered up to 125 but turns out its 395cc, slightly confusing how they use kW haha. Take care
Lol. U will be sorted on that. Enjoy it. :) you could even get a street triple s restricted to A2
Yo bro, you have over 12.000 klicks of this very nice video and only 68 follower... Whats wrong?
By the way I´m buying me also a Honda CB125R this sommer, very very nice bike :)
Hey! Thanks for the review. I am getting the 2021 CB125R and was planning on using as much as possible for commutes/local trips etc. As a new rider yourself, how do you manage to ride in any weather? Any gear combinations you would recommend? Any modifications required to the bike itself? Any advice would be appreciated, thanks in advance.
Congrats. Awesome bike. Just traded in for a bmw f900r. I rode in all weather all year round. Good all weather stuff from alpine stars. You will need heated grips but that’s it really.
How tall are you?
What you think is big seat or no,i am 6.2
Hi. I’m 5.7 and can comfortably get my feet down so u will be fine. The seat is really comfortable - I commute an hour to work and never been a problem.
This bike should handle a motorway no problem, if it doesn't there is something wrong as my old 1986 Suzuki RG125 Gamma could keep up with most vehicles, not a good review if someone was actually buying it for motorways and b rds
It will keep up but struggles with headwinds. I have ridden a few 125 that are the same. For B roads it’s great and you can get 70 on the motorway but takes a while to get there and that’s too end. But if 125’s are your thing then good for you.
I really love this bike so could you plz tell where can buy this bike any link or detail thank you
Look on hondas site for dealers
How much mileage you are getting?? Fuel efficiency??
You will get about 50mpg
Can I pull a trolley on 125 cc bike ?
you mentioned tax but how about the insurance?
So for me it was £200 for my first year of riding on a CBT. Not bad I think.
@@ontwopegs1933 hmm not that bad thank you :)
I'm have had a CBT for 1 year no car license or no claim bonus and am 21 this year the 21 virson for me is 1000 but I live in Scotland so could have something to do with that
Yikes that seems steep!
@@ontwopegs1933 yeah it's my second bike annoying that I don't get a one year no claims as I sold the first one for scarp as it after 5000miles the engine was about to blow 1000 miles back and had no working lights or electrics for 2000 did me well until I moved house
Is it automatic?
No, it has a manual six speed gearbox.
Ummm
