@@motosporttouring Actually, I flew out there.. actually found ANOTHER CT125 for sale.. bought it.. did all my riding for 2 weeks, then sold it and left!
I live in Kingman AZ, the local Honda, Yamaha, HD dealer will not even take a deposit on the Honda TC125 give no real reason except that maybe they just do not what to sell Hondas. Would like to find a dealer somewhere that would ship one to me. Currently ride a 2012 Kymco Like 200i (164cc)and would like a more versatile bike.
Watching this video, I didn't hear the dreaded "clunk", until right at the end, did you add more oil to it and tweak the adjusters down to two silver marks showing?
Hi Eddie, no this was recorded prior to your suggestion, I still have yet to try it. Supposed to get some warmer days soon and I hope to give it a run. How much more oil did you add btw?
@@zamdrang I knew you were going to ask that. You'll love my answer. Got a pen and paper, okay, here goes..... Take your bottle of fork oil, take the cap off and fill it up three times and dump that into each fork tube..... Yea, I know, so scientific...... Hey, that's how we did things in R&D at Phillips Petroleum. We could always measure the cap after the experiment..... If that takes the clunk out, you're good to go, if not, add another cap full....... It worked for me..... The cap is about the size of a plastic water bottle at 7-11........
@@zamdrang Those caps aren't very big, so go slow and then ride afterwards and see if it works. Don't forget to tighten down the adjusting screws to where there are only two silver bars showing...... Let me know how it works......
@@TeamDNFracing Hi Eddie, too cold to ride but adding the fluid.. Assuming you mean a standard fork oil bottle cap and not the YSS fluid cap? I measured three caps full of a standard cap, it's below the scale on my measuring cup but looks to be about 20cc...or so.
Great ride along and commentary. That playground looks so cool like Mars or Tatooine. I'd never get bored riding out there.
Great fun exploring back tracks on the little Honda's. Cheers Jeff
"Gratuitous Suspension Shadow Shot" lol. I totally get it.
Would love to do the high desert. I did Joshua Tree with my 125, that was awesome. I live in upstate, NY
That’s one hell of a ride from NY!!!

Have you checked Cycle Trader? Lots of them advertised there, may not be in stock but worth checking
Looking forward to part 3!
Iv'e had mine a few weeks now slow and steady but i like it and 120 plus gas mileage is awesome
Congrats on picking one up! Isn't the MPG great? Love that about the bike, fuel is never really a worry.
Great job ! Small bore fun!

@@TeamDNFracing That's my kind of science, simple. Could spend time over analyzing and measuring but you can't argue with results right? 😁
