    This man is literally responsible for helping me obtain my Honda Trail by pointing me in the right direction when the demand was at a all time high, and the supply was damn near dry. I'm in NYC/NJ area and there was not a single Trail available within a 900 mile radius! Thanks to this man, I literally got the fairest deal possible.
    MF's in Florida wanted 6-8k for it! God bless you brother, I appreciate you to the fullest!

    Thanks for the review. The other day I put on my snow suit (it was minus 7) and I took my trail to the dealership for its 1000km service. Now I'm ready for spring. 😊

    Great machine the CT-125 is designed to get out in some difficult terrain and hills and hold up to that use !
    I live in the Pacific Northwest and have owned several CT-90 trail machines in the past !
    Best thing Honda did was install the H / L selector for the transmission, I’ve used mine in the mountains a lot and L range was a must !
    I too would like to see that feature on the CT-125 L/H selector!
    Great video !

      That's funny. I just ran into a similar issue. Could get a used CT125 that was about a year old, or pick up a brand new Monkey the dealer just got. I ended up with the Monkey on Friday. And honestly, after about 2 hours of rocking it up and down the gravel roads and little side trails, but I've been perfectly happy with it and smiling beyond belief.

    • @PSBEadventures
      @PSBEadventures  9 месяцев назад +3

      I really like those little Monkeys too. When they get a little age on them, I may look for one in need of a bit of repair. I said about 4 years ago, I'd like to get 4 new internal combustion bikes in case the powers that be keep hating IC even after all it's done for humanity. It was the CT, Monkey, TW200 and and new CRF300L or the KLX300. Thanks for watching!! Congrats on the first bike and great choice!!

    Amazing how much love there is for these mighty bikes. Maybe one day if you visit Australia you could introduce 'little red' to 'big red' Big red is a massive sand dune close to Birdsville in western Queensland & is a magnet for 4WDs & bikes to attempt to conquer it.

    The lack of the low range is the reason I haven't bought 1 yet. I may go ahead and put a bigger rear sprocket but the highways around here are posted either 55 or 65 mph. Even if honda went to a 6 speed. That would work.
    Or maybe a big bore kit. I really want 1 but I need to do several miles of highway before I get to the backroads.

    • @PSBEadventures
      @PSBEadventures  6 месяцев назад +1

      Stock gearing should get you 50-55 pretty easy on flat roads. Unfortunately even with taller gearing it'll be a stretch to get 60-65 out of it. It's definitely possible but it's tough with 8hp. I big Bore kit, aftermarket cam and ecu would definitely help. I really love it, but the two speed would be nice out west on big mountain passes for sure.

      @@PSBEadventuresThank you, I live in Northern California with a few acres on a side of a mountain. Not super steep but good incline. We used to have a 70's Honda 90 but it got stolen. I definitely used the low range. Now
      I am leaning towards looking for an older Honda 90 or 110 for use on the property and getting a bigger bike for off property. I had many motorcycles decades ago. I quit riding 25 years ago after busting up my leg. I could not start my Yamaha XT 350. I still could start the Honda trail 90. With electric start most bikes would be doable.
      I was hoping the new 125 would work for work around the property and trips to the store but I am leery of it with out the low range.
