I own a 2022 cb125f. I own it amongst other bikes but still I enjoy riding it as it relaxes me and it is engaging. Great as a daily cheap run about. But still has a more grown up feel about it when comparing it to all other Honda 125cc bikes. Much cheaper too. I like how it’s understated in that regard. I put petrol on and I don’t get people staring nor asking questions. It’s comfortable and ridiculous cheap on petrol. I wouldn’t take it near motorways, it’s just not designed for it. 50 miles an hour or 80km/h is where the bike holds it own. Keep up with traffic no problems. My favourite thing is how simply everything is on the bike. Love the centre stand and gear indicator for a bike at this price point. The weight and skinny tires make for a different experience to my other bikes. To me it’s an absolute keeper as it has a very clear purpose. I will admit I purchased it originally as I was intrigued by the hype of this little thing. Thinking I’d sell it straight away if I wasn’t excited to ride it.

Hi guys.
I’m driving CB125F 2022, my own average mileage with a full tank is 480 miles and when I’m at the petrol station I have to say that into the tank it has a bit more petrol which is mean with a full tank the average mileage for me is 500 miles.
Thanks.

One of the first things you said was two pistons on the front caliper. Thats important to older commuters like me. Thanks.

Great video with lots of sensible information for anyone looking to either start off in biking or some like me looking for a run around just downsizing for a fun riding experience. Thank you for your video. 😊

Good reviews there. I’ve had 74 mph out of my YBR on a flat dual carriageway. Mind you my chin was on the petrol tank at the time. If I’d had my choice again I think I would have gone for one of the Hondas.

The Mutt looks good. The VanVan is the one for me here. I'd like a 200 as a runaround. The Herald is a looker, too.

Worth checking the wheels for run out, or chips, as yoots like to crash them up kerbs, also whichever one you buy, always but always secure it with a disc lock, and a decent chain and padlock every time you park it, the Adidas wearing hooded creatures from the local chav estate will pinch it, as they are so light and easy to push😮

[GodspeedChris]

Nice. You’ve got a mix of cb125f models there though. The newer 2021 version would be out of the price range as they are still holding their value well. The engine is slightly different and expect better mpg from the post 2021 model.
Cheers

Nice selection :-) Would have thought maybe the Honda XL125 Varadero, though hard to find a good one for £2000, lol

[saira]

Thank you! great useful vid :). I love you added listings and issues!

[ebgb]

Excellent reviews on all the bikes. I totally enjoyed watching this video..Andre.

[BlokeOnAMotorbike]

I have a Sinnis Hoodlum, 23 plate, that tops at 62mph on the flat and I've managed to get 142mpg mixed.

[paulwright]

I have a gsxr125 and trust me they are quick for what they are i have that which i got to work on and a 1000cc one to

[AlphaMikeCharlie]

I got a cheap bluroc hero 125 scrambler for 1400€ i must say for a not very well known company its a great bike.

[Honestlycryabtit]

In my opinion if you can find one for less than 2k the best 125 anyone can buy has to be the pre 2020 Yamaha MT125 it’s such a good bike

[louisimission]

Thanks mate, nice1 appreciate Your list 👍

[TalhaHussain]

under £2000?how does under £1000 sound? i got my ktm RC 125 for exactly £970 ; 2020 model so is hardly used for 3 years! undeniably, RC 125 is one of the best 125s out there! i guess this is one of the perks of living in india!

[joshbriggs]

Wondering what your take on the lexmoto LXR is???

[paulsymonds]

No AJS? Or do they carry a higher secondary value?

[andystevens]

Need a vid on 125cc with low (below 700mm) seat height, with mid pegs ✔️
