In this video I install a Takegawa high capacity oil pump and finally clean out all of the metal chunks from my piston and cylinder experimentaion! First time for me seeing a spinner type filter. Very cool!

Bolts.. not screws. I'm enjoying this one. I may look into that pump. Just picked up my new CT125.😊
Ha ha, yep! I constantly seem to be able to call nuts, bolts and bolts, screws, and sockets and ratchets, wrenches! I should start using thingy for everything!!
@@stevet5549 I literally looked on the motorcycle shop's website and saw they had one available. Called them up, got a very reasonable quote, drove down and picked it up the same day. @Mark Kennedy may have had a different experience.
@@stevet5549 Floyd's Cycles in Danville, Kentucky. Here is their website www.floydscycle.com/ really nice guys and the owner doesn't mess with you. I asked for the Out the Door price over the phone and it was super reasonable and he didn't hide any fees or anything.
a great job, Good to see... one question... did you prime the oil pump before you installed it ? as I would assume it would take a few revolutions to start cycling the oil.
I dought that it would be a problem provided your using a high viscosity oil that would maintain a reasonable amount of cylinder lubrication to protect against a dry start.
Actually I installed it dry and then took it back off and primed it with oil. Not very much oil was needed to prime so I am guessing it self-primes pretty quick. The instructions that came with the pump ask for some oil to be dripped in the intake hole before install.
Excellent tutorial. Your a very smart dude. The whole clutch popping off like a Slinky toy has been a serious future concern of mine. I installed a magnetic drain plug at 0 miles on mine in the hopes it saves me from having to do it so soon. To me, your screen and spinner looked pretty good? Actually looked almost like the condition of a 2019 Honda Monkey I cleaned with 600 miles on it. I'm no mechanic though and watched another dudes video. Don't you love on the new Gen 2's come stock with a filter now ☹... not fair... at all. My Gold Plug was LOADED with metal bits at 600 miles on my Trail125 even with just me putzing around on hardtop. Very glad I put it in right away either way. Your tutorial will be my go to guide when the day comes to crack it open. Marking the position of the clutch tensioner and kickstand was next level smart 👍👍 Can I have the link for the 'lovely assistant ' upgrade? My model is lovely, but will probably give me this when I go to utilize the assist feature 😐😒🤨👎.
LOL! The lovely assistant comes with the "Marriage Package" which is definitely worth the cost! The spinner was pretty full of metal. Being the first one I have done, I do not have a fair frame of reference. Yes, the 2023's come with an external filter so while I am a bit jealous, being able to do just the oil in a couple of minutes on the earlier models, has its perks. I am definitely looking forward to installing the magnetic drain plug. Very interested to see how much metal it can grab.
@@QuantiQualification I have the 'vintage marriage package' 😅. I think when the time comes I can schedule a service appointment for the right fee 🙋♂️🤲💵 🧏♀️ (parts diagram shows 👉 used to retain clutch bits). True on the filter, definately cheaper. I look forward to your future adventures 👍
Be careful with that service appointment! 🤣
lots of details in the video, thanks!
You are welcome.
Have you considered adding an oil cooler?
Yes, I add one in a later video.
what is the passenger peg accessory you mention? link?
It is a Revolution Passenger peg set that attaches to the motorcycle. Here is a link beezdeals.com/product/revolution-passenger-footrest-honda-ct125-trail-125/
Looks difficult maybe 🤔 I don’t want to do this!
Having good help is always best. I would say it was of moderate difficulty but certainly doable. 🙂
@@QuantiQualification I am sure I could do it but don’t really want to have the bike down for a week while I learn by trial and error. Two weeks ago I got a flat rear tire and decided to replace the tire tube myself. I got it done ✅ ok but the bike was down for a week for parts and I pinched two new tubes learning how to do it! The third time was a success but it did not feel good!
@@Blastfence1 Yes, that is the downside! 😂
Why do Americans constantly say "go ahead and"...?
I'm not sure how many Americans do say that, but I get annoyed every time I do when reviewing my own videos.
My biggest question is, why do you think you need to put an after market oil pump in place of the OEM? Is Honda engineering not tried and proven?
I did my best not to comment on what you call screws. BOLTS.
And whenever and if ever you think your qualified enough to reset the clutch adjustment, the proper procedure doesn’t involve the use of a Sharpie. I don’t mean any disrespect but you should order the service manual for this bike and follow it to the letter. In know time you learn correct terminology and be able to teach proper procedures on RUclips.
First, thank you for the comment. It is both helpful and a great starting point for further discussion. Let me address the high-capacity oil pump first: Yes, Honda engineers know what they are doing and designed the pump correctly for the application. That being said, I have messed with the bike enough (big bore kit, etc.) that what they were engineering to is no longer the case. The higher-capacity pump may help with cooling the piston as-is, and I later want to add an oil cooler which will require a greater oil pump capacity to overcome the resistance the cooler will add to the circuit. I struggled with the fasteners question, to be honest. I had to research the topic after I started producing videos to actually determine what is the true difference between screws and bolts. My research determined that the application more so than the physical fastener actually determines the fastener classification. I am a mechanical engineer who has worked in the engineering field for 23 years and I can still learn new things. I have since been trying to use the word screw for most of fasteners now, with few exceptions, in my newer videos. Never-the-less, I have some reservations, convince me otherwise. I do have and use the Honda Service Manual for this bike and use the guidance therein to build the videos for the most part. The clutch adjustment question is a good one. The sharpie mark was done wrong and should have also marked the case. The mark was put there to make sure I assembled everything correctly and that the side case was torqued down. There are several, very good videos, on RUclips that cover the subject of clutch adjustment well. The intent of the video was oil pump and filter clean, not clutch adjustment. Finally, I am not a mechanic nor was I trained to work on motorcycles. I invite viewers to go along with the experience to see how I did and do things. Thanks again for the comment, it has given me much thought. 🙂

Thanks for your reply. I hope I didn’t offend you, my comment wasn’t meant to. I now wonder why you didn’t trade up for a bigger bike. I’m pretty happy with mine. To me it has just enough power and sometimes I wish it had a little more. In my opinion that is more desirable then latent energy or more power then will ever be used.
I’m all for some of the after market upgrades, I have two racks and a trunk as the bike comes with zero storage. But to alter the basic engineering is something I would not want to do.
Absolutely no offense; I enjoy the interaction, which is why I started this channel. I have had many larger and a couple of smaller motorcycles as well. For the purposes, the CT110 that I had was almost perfect. It would go everywhere that the TW200 I used to own couldn't. The auto clutch and the low range had something to do with it, I am sure. The one thing that I wanted out of the Trail 125 was a higher top speed. My particular one went barely faster than the Trail 110. I love the Trail 125, don't get me wrong, but it needs just a little bit more to get to my grail of 55mph constant for mild grades and head wind. I am with you on adding racks and such. It is going to be an awesome moto-camping platform. If I get it to where I want it, I will report on that, as well as reliability once I understand that. In the meantime, I am learning a ton on this little bike. EFI on motorcycles is new to me. Previous tuning has all been on 2-Stroke motos which I have had great success. Ultimately, I am looking for a moderate power increase, super reliability, and the least expensive fuel controller. Yes, the impossible, low cost, high reliability, ease of installation. I will get there . . .
Why would you do this? These things deliver mail all day at 40+C temps in Aussie they have been hotted up beyond belief, raced at Speedweek in Oz to over 100mph never heard the oil pump being an issue.
Screws-bolts your-you’re no one is perfect. :0
U ruined that bike
Please see the following video. Wrecked but not ruined. ruclips.net/video/XtTSLAnzIOQ/видео.html
