I no longer own the bike, but after the first service, I believe that the oil needs changing every 4000km (2500 miles) and the valves should be inspected at the same time (and adjusted if necessary). Only 2 valves with a simple spanner / screwdriver adjustment, so it's not that time consuming or difficult to do.
Hey, do you still own the bike? What's its top speed? I can't get the right answer for this sadly, everyone says different. And did you have any mods on it? Thanks in advance!
Hello, it was my son's bike which we sold years ago. It was completely standard and could be thrashed to 65mph (indicated) on the flat so around 100km/h. It would sit at 55mpg (90km/h) all day and my son took it all around the UK without issue.
SpiroZoren Thank you for your quick answer! My only requirement towards this bike is to maintain a stable 90 km/h on the flat, so hopefully the one I'm about to buy will fulfill this for me. Thanks again!
@@SpiroZoren i totally agree. I ride a 1000. I only asked because when I’m in Colombia with my friends and family, most bikes there are 125. This seems halfway decent when it comes to height
possibly the worst bike honda ever made....cant believe im saying this but theyre unreliable, very wobbly over 35mph, lacking in power and very heavy considering its only a 125...not a good learner bike in my opinion...
I don't know. It was my son's bike and he did 20k fault free miles on it. I've been stranded by a lot of other Honda's over the years, most significantly an XR400.... When I was 18, my Honda XL100 S used to let me down all the time - it was a load of junk! The XLR was slow, had the softest / nastiest suspension (well for my weight anyway) - but it did the job. It handled and stopped well enough for a 125. No point chucking money at a 125 - best to do your test and move on to 'proper' bikes if you want to ride any distance......
yeah i probably had a bad experiance as the bike had no history papers and maybe had a hard life like most old hondas....think ill stick to my cub90's from here on in
Brett Brooksbank C90's are legendary! Check out Ed March - he's been all over the world on them. Reliable and easy to fix when they do eventually wear-out! Also had a 1988 CG125 as a youngster. That was really slow, had terrible brakes and the worst ever handling! Admired the old push-rod engine though. Underpowered but such a simple design! I have been put-off cam-chain Honda's after having 2 of them fail over the years... Back on Yamaha's now after a long stint with Kawasaki's - no such issues with them (so far)!
Hello. Nice moto.
Could you kindly provide me with the Official Honda XLR 125's Oil Change and Valve Check Service Intervals?
Thanks. Have a good one!

@@SpiroZoren That's decent for a 125. Thank you very much!
i have the xlr 125r 2001 model and use it trailriding slowly doing small things to make it a better bike for what im using it for

the Bike is From 1999 year
how much now
Sold it a long time ago. Today it would probably be worth £1500.
I’m 6’4 and want to get this but feel like I’m too tall 😭
Most 125 bikes are pretty small. If you need to ride a 125 then something like this or the Varadero 125 are about the tallest you can get.

Is that big wheel??
Agri life NZ Yes, it was a full size bike with a 21" front and and a 18" back wheel.
