Honda Trail 125 (CT125): To keep or to sell, that is the question...
Вставка
- Опубліковано 13 сер 2024
- I'm out for a work commute today on my Trail 125, and I'm rambling on many topics... including whether I should keep the CT125 or sell it. This is RAW and uncensored content, so beware of four letter fun words and a lot of bone-headed Houston cager activity. Skip around with the chapter markers below.

Loving these long uncut videos because I get to compared the road conditions to my country. Here in Australia, specifically Sydney, our roads are much more random and less structured, roads are more like spaghetti rather than everything being so squared / tidy. Also our roads are tighter yet it's legal for us to filter and also lane split up to 30kph(18mph) it blows my mind why you guys are not allowed to filter, there is ample room to do it safety. That guy in the red pick up was an absolute donkey of a driver. One thing I do like about Houston is the shops by the roads seem to have pretty large open parking spaces, wish we had that.
Greetings from the USA! Houston is a massive, sprawling metropolis that is larger than some countries (Israel and El Salvador, for example)! We have plenty of terrible drivers here, and more are being imported every day... it's a struggle. Filtering would make riding easier and potentially safer, but that would require a paradigm shift in thinking for our territorial and homicidal cagers.
Our streets are arranged in a large grid that's mostly aligned on cardinal directions. That makes navigation relatively easy compared to areas in the northeast or northwest portions of the country. That grid alignment is easy because our elevation is flat as a pancake here... no hills or terrain features to plot around. Cheers! 😉👍 --QM
What might be an idea is sell the 2nd Super Cub and put the big bore on the Trail instead.
Where i live...on these narrow pothole riddled streets where there's cars parallel parked on both side of the street its the biggest widest trucks that move dangerously fast then sometimes the other cars just be parked any kinda way. You're not lying about the cagers here. They be doing the most.
without seeing the whole 98 minutes of footage yet the answer is HELL YES keep it.
and if not, send it over. i will find a place in my overgrowded garage for this one of a kind ^^
This little machine attracted me a lot, will be ordering/buying in a few weeks, I can’t wait to start a little road trip with it, nice video in general .
If you are a coffee lover, you should’ve try the Ethiopian, Harar, that test amazing. I am originally from Jimma, Ethiopia, I started Coffee in a traditional style, when I was 8, very strong Coffee that we drink still now, If you’re able to, try buying the raw one and do make yourself an amazing natural testy coffee. Enjoy your new beautiful Honda CT125.
Thanks for the feedback and the coffee ideas! If you liked this video, you might enjoy this CT125 road trip video on my main channel: ua-cam.com/video/xItNMZ--qSc/v-deo.html Cheers! 😉👍 --QM
I say sell it you have other bikes that have similar cc and fill the role better
However, you did talk about moving so if your moving to an area that has more backroads and trails keep the ct125 and sell other bikes.
Always fun to follow along on your rides. My SIL lives on the west side of Houston and we've been around the same areas when we visit. Usually stay at All Star RV Resort. Can't say have many issues down there, KC traffic is just as bad. But does wear you down.
oh seeing your speed up hill reminded me i camped at the beach Thursday. going to the beach 40 to 45 is all i could do. but on the way home Friday. 58 to 62 mph. and Wilbur has never ran 62 mph in its life except down hill. but that north east wind helped
Unless you need to sell it for to pay bills or eat, I would keep it.
I know you don't ride it much, but i say it's a keeper.
Toss it on the pile with the Rebel for trade in on that nx750!
Enjoyed the raw - wish the pcx was running - Driving in Houston is dangerous. ? wife wants to know what a cager is. Stay safe. 🙂
The other car you were talking about was the Eagle Talon TSI, and it's twin the Mitsubishi Eclipse GSX
I say attempt the TAT with it, then sell it. Oh, and put the milk crate back on it.
You don’t see many motorcyclists texting.
I think you might regret this one if you decide to sell. Especially when motocamping or trail exploring. Well, on another note, I took my new vstrom 800de out today on her maiden voyage and all I got to say is wow. Coming from the cb500f, it's like comparing a car to a truck. And my back, what a difference even after an hour. (With no air hawk cushion either) If you can get a chance to ride one, do it. It's a little taller than the nc750x. 1.5 inches. But suspension travel is amazing. Sent you some pics on your latest tweet. Cheers 🍻 😊
I think it would be a nice upgrade for your son. I realize money is tight for you right now,but maybe hang on go it for awhile longer.maybe sell something else
So if you're camping out,usually you brew your coffee using an Aeropress right. Do you use that at home as well,or do you use like a Moka Pot or a V60 pour over or something?
I use the AeroPress at home sometimes when I'm brewing a single cup of coffee. I've been looking at Moka pots recently, but I typically use a french press for coffee at home. Fresh-ground coffee beans, distilled water, and a few drops of trace minerals or sea salt to balance the water... coffee perfection! ☕😋 --QM
Tire question is a 2.50 tire front and rear the same size wide and height as the stock tire on the trail 125? I'm subbed to both of your channels. I'm a motovlogger myself too I have a Yamaha fjr1300es and a ktm 890 adventure.
👊 Thanks for watching and the subs on both channels! 😉
Yes, a 2.50/100-17 is roughly equivalent to the OEM 80/90-17 tire that comes stock on the CT125. The 3.00/100-17 tires that I have are actually closer to a 90/100-17, which have sidewall heights of 3.5" vs the original 2.6-2.8". Cheers! 😉👍 --QM
I own a 2022 super cub 125 , a 2022 trail and a 2023 xr 150l . It's the trail that draws the most intrest. Go figure!
lol This sounds like Drivers in California to me because they're the same way ;)
Mostly up to you if you want sell your CT125 because I know you got a lot of other Honda two Cubs and one rebel 1100 and Navi plus PCX150 and others! Mr. Aaron
Sell and get nc750 or adv 160 no doubts!!🎉 imo only really good thing for ct125 is for a farm bike, it would be the best farm utility bike possible, but not much other things it is ideal for, be perfect spending its day's at a hunting camp or camp in general. But outside of those 2 or 3 scenarios don't really make lot of sense.
On my 07 Piaggio mp3 I paid every 6 month State Farm insurance $79.53 Liability Coverage! Mr. Aaron 🍻
I'd say 100% keep it, but uh...
If you do want to sell it, maybe next time Burch has a meet up in Chattanooga (lol, no idea if that'd be soon, doubtful) and you're there I would buy it off you
23:59 haha, well put.
On a motorcycle, I don't feel the need to speed, whereas in a car I want to be going fast on the interstate so much so that I'm constantly analyzing the "lines" (exit paths, where that exit path would set me up for the next lane change), looking at shadows to see what is in front of this lifted pickup truck if anything (to see if I can go around and get in front of him, or if I'd go around and be stuck behind a semi),
On a motorcycle, I'm content with speed limits or 10 above, because I'm looking iut to for side streets, controlling levers, and having more granularity in my throttle than if I was just using a foot on a pedal.
Whether this means motorcycles are great for ADHD, Autism, or whatever brain diagnosis that like having mental stimulation, cars.. they're just depressing and emotionless to drive after using motorcycles.
i sent you a picture of of the tires i put on my bike and let me tell you they work great in sand. and on wet roads. i just hope the rear last 3000 miles like the ones you have on yours now did. its not sinko but someone does make that tire in a 2.75 but they almost double the price.
and my new tires are shinko 241
❤
Yeah, that scooter just doesn't have enough pep. I'd sell it.
If you never use it then you could sell it, and even make a profit.
I don't like the new accord either. At some point, they always mess up a good thing.
Ok,its driving me nuts....what does your key chain tag say? Lol
"Work hard, play harder" 😉👍 --QM
@@QuasiRAW lol,lol.i want 9ne that says,It's all about the dash"". You know,as in grave markers .you are born on this date and died on that date.that dash represents the life you had in between. I want a good dash! Lol
Q. have you rode an electric bike... thoughts?
try insurance on a BMW scooter.....OUCH
run the hell away from it unless you put a 250 in it :D for what you do with it too slow although fun
I wish Honda would just make a Trail 200 or 250 😢.
I understand it's 124cc for certain markets that allow only up to 125cc for beginner licenses, but would love a Trail 200 or Trail 250 for America.
I'd think they'd sell like hotcakes in the U.S., shoot scale the Trail up to also have a 500cc 😂😂
If you have mentioned in the beginning of the video what state and city you live in people would have known what streets and freeways you're talking about.
Details are in the video description. This is Houston, Texas.
