Bonjour J’ai 65 ans, j’ai eu plusieurs motos dans ma vie, l’avant-dernière était une Suzuki DR650, je l’ai bien aimée, mais je la trouvais lourde, haute et dans les embouteillages le levier d’embrayage très dur était une torture. J’ai maintenant une Honda trail 125. La liberté totale !!! Sans aucun stress. Je peux aller aux mêmes endroits qu’avec ma DR650. OK, moins rapidement, mais pourquoi se presser, surtout quand on est retraité… J’ai vu votre fantastique escapade, dans votre merveilleuse région. Ce n’est pas seulement un essai d’une moto, mais plutôt le récit d’une véritable aventure, avec des moments d’humour et de réflexion dans des paysages grandioses. Vous êtes de véritable scénariste. Vous m’avez fait rêver et entrainé dans votre monde. Merci de m’avoir fait passer un si bon moment. 🤗👍👍👍
I really appreciate your thoughtful and kind comment! I too had a dr650, it was my first off road bike. Such a great machine. I agree it was a little on the heavy side and I will usually try to ride lighter off road if I can. There’s some videos on the channel about the Dr650. Glad to see you’re still riding, I have a friend in Canada who is 68 and rides a Xr650L. It encourages me to know if I look after myself I can keep riding for a long long time. Have a great day and thank you for watching and leave the kind words
This is the best video I’ve ever seen on the trail 125 and the Grom. I own a 22 Grom and a 24 trail 125. I use them both off-road. Keep the videos coming. My new favorite channel!
Here's a suggestion for all CT125 riders. Take the kickstarter off and throw it into a tailbag or other convenient place on the bike. That will get it out of the way of your feet. Then if you should ever need to use, just slip it back on, finger tighten the retaining bolt, and start your bike with it. That's what I have done, as I just couldn't see any reason to keep it on the bike while fighting to keep my feet off of it while bouncing around off road.
@someryebread Here in the Philippines there is an aftermarket part available called the half shifter. It's basically a toe shifter that replaces the heel-toe shifter. Press down to up shift and pull up with your toes to downshift. I don't have any problem with the stock though, but I understand that it's not for everyone.
Wow such a great work ! The CT125 is of course great, but the Grom's driving performance really stood out. I think Honda must be happy with the good publicity.😆
I bought a 1970 ct90, and retrofitted a 1985 atc 110 engine with the hi/low to fit and work with the lights. Only drawback was pullstart not kick. The act125m is even better.
Old versions of the CT had a high/low gearing selector on the gearbox that came in handy for ultra steep terrain. I could ride up pretty much anything by standing on the passenger foot pegs.
Awesome Adventure! You really can rip it up on small motos buddy! I am looking forward to seeing the next adventure you get yourself into on 2 wheels...
Awesome video and adventure!! The scenery was unbelievable. wish I could ride in an area like that. maybe someday. I have a 22' Trail and have put 31,000 miles(50,000 km) so far on it. Still runs like a little tank! Happy Trails and Thanks for All the work that goes into making these vids!!
Could not get a Honda Trial in 2023 so got a Honda Monkey instead and really like it. But the trail has a certain appeal, but not having a clutch is not a deal breaker but would be nice to have. The old CT's had a low/high feature it would have been nice if that was carried over. Great scenery
I agree, the high low gear box would have allowed to me get at least as far as the Honda grom got. Was too bad that the auto clutch couldn’t engage on the hills
Oh wow! I always wondered what the limits of my new Trail 125 (yellow) would be and now I don't need to actually have to find out myself! Since I am near 70, what would hurt a Gen Z'er would kill me dead on every turn of those trails. I do think had you got a bigger sprocket on the back, and knobby tires, maybe some suspension mods the Trail would have done better, especially the hill climbs. Love this channel, now subscribed. Keep on truckin Canada!
Cracking video, the best I've seen about pushing the CT and finding its capabilities, I'm really impressed you did that on stock tyres 😎. Also just a generally great piece of entertainment. You've got an instant subscribe from me 😊
Wow, Canada is beautiful this time of year. Envious of those trials and epic views, hopefully i can visit and experience them myself one day. Great video of your 'little' adventure. Leef lang en gelukkig.
Great video! Just found your channel, just subscribed. Looks like the CT125 could be even more capable with a standard clutch and optional ABS. SomeGuyRides also reported lots of trouble with the clutch on steep hills on the Trans America Trail.
man... I thought we had some intense hill climbs where I live.. I mean we got a few I wouldn't even attempt but those are something else. Just straight up the hill.
😂 I would never , ask of you to do it again , but tires , would have made a difference! 🤷♂️ Mine will never see those Mountains! I did finally get to Alaska this year ! A bitter sweet story though. Thank you and the video is a Honda testament!
@@robertlong538 you are 100% correct. Tires, get rid of ABS, shorter gearing, remove Center stand, and kick start lever, and maybe see if there is a way to make the auto clutch engage harder.
Really odd to have a bike made for at least some off road that won't let you disable the ABS. Wonder how that slipped through the cracks? Still, looks like an adventure!
@@rangeroadmoto Like the old CT90-110 stuck in road range.. pretty worthless to navigate steep and rough terrain. The old machines got by with such marginal suspension and brakes because of that tractor low range 2nd and 1st gears. When this model was introduced with the 4 speed, I simply scratched my head and knew I would not buy one due to a lack of versatility. The new models suspension was a bit of a letdown too..
The biggest take away is that it is a whole lot of laughs. The guy on the 1250 Bimmer died of a heart attack trying to lift his bike up after he fell off in the first 100 yards.
Not the right kind of trail for this bike. Built more for dirt roads/ forest trails with no major incline. Tire and power mods done on this bike can improve its abilities, though. Depends on what you want to use it for..... Great video! What tires on on your bike?
@@SLFYSH I am very curious which one would do better honestly.. I’ve heard all my life the low range would “climb anything” hard to know how accurate that is without buying one and taking it there and redoing the video on a classic trail 90 hahah
Does the Grom have a traditional clutch? It seems to do well too. I'm restoring an old 125 RV Suzuki Van Van. I think that will be a similar bit if fun.
It didn’t like the water that’s for sure. Occasionally the top right roll switch doesn’t like to talk to the circuit board and I have to do the rc calibration routine. I’ll probably have to replace that roller or send it out
The closest thing I could get to the CT125 is the CB125F, a Cracking little machine and surprisingly capable on terrain like this, but I'm still mad at Honda for not selling the CT125 In Europe.
@@rangeroadmoto It's more Sad to Me than actually weird, from all 125s there are on the Market the CT was the One that I really wanted so bad since they introduced it. Imagine the disappointment, after all these years it's still not available.
I had one .. The honda ct125.. Very very underpowered. Honda screwed up by not keeping the hi/lo tranny. So i put a 60 tooth rear sprocket on. Then you coukd ride it in the woods. Street ? Forget it. Sold it. Bought a TW200
@rangeroadmoto ... yes. And the seat killed me. The 60 tooth rear sprocket made it fun , for walking speeds in the woods. Could literally climb a tree. But that seat was killer.
After the creek incident I took off the little cover and pulled the two fuses, but neither of those seemed to disengage the ABS. I’m not sure if there is another fuse for the ABS hiding somewhere else on the bike but I couldn’t find it. I should have just unplugged the sensor at the wheel looking back now.
@@a.johnrobbins175 the most common place I see them is at Riverside in St.Albert. But they are still rare. And I don’t think canada is getting them for 2025
That's just too rough of terrain for that bike mountain hill wise that is for if it were level rocky terrain wouldn't be bad on that bike at all but you did put it through its paces that most guys and gals would never do !!
Wow super video yes smal bikes can take you places the GSes only dream off , when i was yong i like you whent places with my bike a Honda XL 100cc summer and winter on only TKC 80s when you stumble on some folks deep in the woods they give you a look ans say how the H... did you get to ride up to this place 😁it gives you some satisfaction il say ceap on riding i still ride now i have scrambled up my RE Classic 350 with K 60s 50/50 tires so much funn on smal bike ride safe.
That’s awesome! I love the XL100, in fact if you look on my channel I posted a video of a big adventure I did on the XL100! Awesome to see you’re still riding! Thanks for the kind words, have a great day
I'm picking up a 2023 next week. Are there any upgrades to address the lack of power in the first half of 1st gear? I keep hearing about that. Or is it only an issue at those most extreme inclines?
Honestly I had no issue with the power, it’s more so the auto clutch does not want to engage. There may be mods for this like similar to scooter CVT’s like adding heavier clutch weights but I’m honestly not too sure. If you’re gonna ride off road some basic things i would do: Better tires Remove centre stand Remove kick start lever And disengage ABS If you’re tall maybe add a cushion to the back of the seat cause your tailbone will hit the rear rack. Other than if you’re just cruising gravel roads and easy trail it should get you everywhere you wanna go!
After getting yeeted into that puddle due to dirt and abs shenanigans, I'd pull the fuse to it personally. In an offroad focused bike it was already a questionable design choice.
@@domenik8339 yeah I actually tried, there’s only two main fuses I could find that are obvious.. and I pulled them but neither from what I could would kill the abs.. I may have been pulling the wrong fuses but it was weird

The real champion here has to be the adventure Grom. What a surprising little weapon.
Seriously! It did so well
But they have the same engine right?
Another great video. I feel this way when I ride my 229cc dual sport “hawk DLX” around, but you guys are really taking it to the next level. Epic!!

I’ve also heard people recommend cutting off the heel shifter.

The CT125 is of course great, but the Grom's driving performance really stood out.
I think Honda must be happy with the good publicity.😆
Definitely right about the Grom!
Usually you can remove the 10mm nut that bolts the abs sensor, then zip tie it up out of the way!
That was awesome. I love the off-road Grom.
Thanks! The Grom did so good
You must be super tight with Riley to get him riding that much mud lol great video Blake !
Bahah I think we take turns making each other suffer
Been keeping an eye out for a 110 with the hi low range box. Good video!
That’s a very Good choice!
I bought a 1970 ct90, and retrofitted a 1985 atc 110 engine with the hi/low to fit and work with the lights. Only drawback was pullstart not kick. The act125m is even better.
What a fantastic Landscape, it´s a Joy to see you on Minimotors there! Thanks for this beautyful scenes!
Greetings from Germany (Ruhrpott)!
Old versions of the CT had a high/low gearing selector on the gearbox that came in handy for ultra steep terrain. I could ride up pretty much anything by standing on the passenger foot pegs.
Awesome Adventure! You really can rip it up on small motos buddy! I am looking forward to seeing the next adventure you get yourself into on 2 wheels...
This is the best bike video I have ever watched because it was a thrill to see what is possible on a 125cc bike if you are stubborn enough to do it.
Haha that’s a really good way to put it! Just pure stubbornness
You do great work! I hope it keeps coming!
Thanks so much! Definitely got more coming
Yeehaww incredible video Blake!! That was such a fun weekend hahah we Goda do it again… maybe on the XL175 eh 😜
Love that you told Blake he was going to go over the handlebars, and sure enough 😂😂😂
Bahaha oh man I totally forgot he did!
This was SO rad. Now I want a Trail 125!
Had mine 3 days. Worth it bro. I take the side road into town and dont regret it at all because its a better road for riding on anyway.
Awesome video and adventure!! The scenery was unbelievable. wish I could ride in an area like that. maybe someday. I have a 22' Trail and have put 31,000 miles(50,000 km) so far on it. Still runs like a little tank! Happy Trails and Thanks for All the work that goes into making these vids!!
That’s awesome! Thats a of miles in two years on a smaller bike!
Wow! Really enjoyed this. Tough terrain and a skilled rider with some balls. Hope the bike and your body are ok.

No one likes comparison but I have to. I feel like this is FortNine level of quality and Common Tread (Zach and Ari) style of video. Earned my sub.
Hey man I love both those channels so I greatly appreciate the comparison!
Awesome adventure, just purchased this bike yesterday. Can't really say i will go as hard as ya'll did. But this was cool.
Great video has to be the best I’ve seen with the ct 125, well done and can’t wait for your next trip, 🇬🇧🇬🇧G
Thank you! Is it true that you don’t get the Ct125 in England?
Love the vids man!
Thanks man!
Incredible video. This bike is what made me interested in motorcycles. Now I want to buy two and go for an adventure.
That was EPIC!
All new riders need to see this video before buying their first bike.
Cheers 🍻
Awesome effort through hard terrain, love to see it. Its amazing to see where you can take a bike if you’re willing

Excellent ride/review showcasing this bike's limits. Well done.
That was a Great... nehhh.... Awesome Video... I love that area of Alberta and been camping there a lot!
Thanks man! Yeah I love that area, it’s special
Great stuff, will be interested to see what the little 125 can do with some proper tires on it.
I'd recommend throwing on some different tires the stock ones are kinda crap. Once I threw on some shinkos it became a different bike in the best way.
Yes!!! 100%%
Great job challenging the 125 Trail. I think I would choose a Yamaha TW200 over the Honda for this type of driving.
100% agree! The auto clutch really isn’t designed for this type of riding.
Annnd SPLOOSH!
Love it guys! Just Love it!
Never a dull moment with Riley!
i grew up using boggers (c90) stripped naked and trying to kill them, cockroach bikes - the 125 will be the same i hope - brilliant video
cockroach bikes is an awesome way to describe it
Great video! Just found your channel, just subscribed. Looks like the CT125 could be even more capable with a standard clutch and optional ABS. SomeGuyRides also reported lots of trouble with the clutch on steep hills on the Trans America Trail.
LITTLE BIKES, BIGGER ADVENTURES. THANKS FOR SHARING.
Another great video!
Thank you!
I look forward to seeing more of this content.👌
This is so beautiful. Love the ct125.
I got tired just by watching you struggle 😆
Great scenery. Thanks for the video.
older cousin got one new in 1965 i learned on it and he sold it in the 80,s still running like new but with faded paint
They were so well built
I'm around 6 min in and there have been many laughs to be had. That says a lot about these bikes.
@@TommyNitro if you like to laugh, little bikes are the best!
great video, pls include the locations in your descriptions
Edmonton and Nordegg 👍
auto clutch need high rpm to fully engage as they work with centrifugal force so 10-15km/h you are not fully engage so no torque. Nice vid !
This is MAGNIFICENT!!!
Another great video! Thanks for sharing!
Means a lot! Thanks for watching!
man... I thought we had some intense hill climbs where I live.. I mean we got a few I wouldn't even attempt but those are something else. Just straight up the hill.
This is such type 2 fun 😅 Small bikes are awesome 🤘
I have a ct110, i would love to see a comparison of the 2.
Wicked fun video. How about offering stickers of your Range Road Moto logo. The little duck tail rear fender could really use one. Great video. Thanks
I will do that!

I’d have to agree
Honda should have retained a version of the duel range transmission or installed at least a 5 speed so it could have a low enough 1st gear.
@@shopken1 you are 100% correct. The inability to climb was a bit of a disappointment

Needs a shinko sr244 rear and a shinko sr241 front tire. Or the equivalent then it will go anywhere you went much much easier

Haha I’m glad I can share the struggle!
What part of the Rocky Mountains was this? I'm getting my Trail on Friday, and I would love to adventure out in those sticks.

I had one ..
The honda ct125..
Very very underpowered.

So i put a 60 tooth rear sprocket on.
Then you coukd ride it in the woods.
Street ? Forget it.
Sold it.
Bought a TW200
I agree with the choice. As you could see from our video the bike struggled pretty much everywhere. I was a little disappointed
@rangeroadmoto ... yes. And the seat killed me.
The 60 tooth rear sprocket made it fun , for walking speeds in the woods.
Could literally climb a tree.
But that seat was killer.
Hi. Please tell me which track is playing at 8:45?
Could you override the ABS system by pulling its fuse?
After the creek incident I took off the little cover and pulled the two fuses, but neither of those seemed to disengage the ABS. I’m not sure if there is another fuse for the ABS hiding somewhere else on the bike but I couldn’t find it. I should have just unplugged the sensor at the wheel looking back now.

Would've been nearly perfect if they did a clutch and the low range box. Shame

8:48 is a gorgeous view
It really is one of the most beautiful areas I’ve ridden in Canada
Incredibly beautiful trip
I think I would have rode my KTM 300
I think that would have been the better choice too :P haha.
I think the original Trail 90 with the dual range would have been a much better choice.
I fully agree. I should get one and repeat the same route and see how it does
I gotta agree with Riley on this one, I HATE mud lol probably more then I hate sand, and that's a lot lol
