    I was looking at the z125 the Honda grom and the CfMoto papio. I ended up going with the Papio because the 6 speed transmission but i really do love the look of the z125

      Totally Agree! How do you like the Papios engine paired with the 6 speed?

    I agree with everything you said. I have both a 2023 Z125 and a Papio 126. The 6 speed gives you a comforable cruise speed of 55 mph. The motor of the Z125 is much smoother than the Papio. The Z125 also has anti-lock brakes.

    It is to light for the interstate. Big Rigs would blow you into the weeds as they pass you.

      Interstate laws require minimum 250cc. Vibes... my Grom makes me numb after about 30 miles. I'm a larger fellow and live in the mountains of East TN so I'm constantly in the 6k+ rpms. 1 reason I hate my Grom is no oil filter, only oil screen. Oil changes require losening the rearset, removing the exhaust to take off the engine cover to access the oil screen. Says only every 4k miles but running at high rpm constantly leads to quicker service intervals. A 2nd reason is the seat. The Gen 2 (2020) is a step up so I can't slide back.

      @@mnstrmike I found it on a site for motorcycle law, but cannot find it in Maryland's MVA Motorcycle Operator Manual either. I searched for "minimum, smallest, and cc". The only hit I got was the delineation between motorcycles below and above 600cc. That was only concerning the U-Turn and turning radius requirements.

      It can be, but there are some pros and cons to it. I did make a video going over if its a decent first bike or not. If you want to check that out but if it were me a Honda rebel 250 or a Ninja 250 would be better to start with, just because they are more full sized and you'll be able to learn more true motorcycle techniques. Plus a bit more power and I definitely think having a bit more power is actually more safe when it come to starting out over a grom or zpro.

      Cant deny that. Most everyone stunts on these bikes. The Z125 is the better of the two Japanese I hear just because of the oil feed to the top of the head.
