    I follow a lot of different motovloggers and motorcycle channels, some much larger than yours, yet the only channel that I'll watch every upload on is yours. I know all about the z125 but I didn't hesitate clicking on this video. I don't know specifically what it is man, but you are doing something very, very right. Keep up the great content!

    I own a 2017 Z125 bought new. I have about 11,000 miles on it. The stator went bad around 10k miles, that was the biggest expense. Also new chain and new set of brakes and a new rear tire at around 9k miles (front badly needs doing too). Oil change every 1000 miles or so and a filter change every other oil change. Very cheap to run, get about 90 mpg, oil filter is like $3, new chain was $9. The stator however was $300+ CAD at the dealership; bought a used one for about half that. Sometimes I pine for a bigger bike, but then I ride it and immediately change my mind. Insurance in Canada is absurd, and I’m 38; some 250s can be a little cheaper tho. Happy riding!

    To go faster get in a tuck position. Had my Grom up to 72 coming off a draft and going down a hill. Can’t wait to upgrade the suspension and tires. Maybe if I would of bought a z wouldn’t need to upgrade suspension. I’m loving my Grom most fun bike I’ve ever owned.

      I also hit 72 on my Grom for split second going down a slight hill, and I weight 190lbs, it was super fun but scary at the same time on a Grom. Lol

    • @schlinge-fling
      @schlinge-fling 5 лет назад +1

      shoei07 Same. It’s the most fun bike I’ve ever had. I would choose it over my R6. I went 72 with my grom when I was going down hill in my town.

    I have the green z125 pro, a 2017 model in Australia second hand Don'e 6000km & cost me $3800.00
    I made a custom rack bolts on under the tail tidy, Sam pattern 4 bolts plus 2 stabiliser rods either side just above the indicators , that bolt on behind the rear foot pegs in the chain guard bolt hole same thread longer bolt, secured with a nylon locknut on the other side, I'm handy with a welder, better & stronger than a bought rack.
    I have a 32 L Ventura box on it, or I shange out the front part & can put twin Ventura bags on it. I secured one on the rack & the other one zips to it over the pillion seat, usb & phone mount on the handlebars & a helmet lock.
    I won't put a tank bag on it as I don't want to trash the tank.
    I call it my grocery go-getter
    Even though i own a car & a Yamaha MT03.
    I'm on my first tank of fuel 155 km, indicating 1/2 a tank.
    Is there a warning light when the fuel gets low?

  • @Thesaviorsway
    @Thesaviorsway 5 лет назад +1

    I used to get 107 or 109 mpg the first 3 thousand miles. But then I used bigger tires put extra weight and accessories and hurt the economy... also increased redline and power. Hopefully when I reduce rolling resistance decrease weight and improve compression I can get back the fuel economy. The most I got was 136.7mpg running lean. There is lots of potential and even with a super dirty clogged filter I was getting 83mpg redlining every gear.

    • @Thesaviorsway
      @Thesaviorsway 5 лет назад

    Most states this size bike is not allowed on the highway legally. In Ct minimum cc allowed on highways is a 250cc. You can spend over a grand on after market stuff but you will only gain 1 Hp. Unless you put a big bore kit on it leave it stock

  • @grsplane
    @grsplane 4 года назад

    There seems to be some mystery around the horsepower of this great little machine. Geek that I am I found some information on the EPA website, a spreadsheet of all U.S. market motorcycles. They show the Z125 pro at 7.1 KW, and the Grom at 7.2 . That translates to 9.4 and 9.5 HP respectively. EPA doesn't give torque figures. Z125 service manual also states 7.1 KW. Some articles talk about dyno testing results but then you get into all sorts of variables.

      Yes! Although it has a higher than expected seat height, it's so narrow that you shouldn't have too many issues with getting feet down.

    I’m having a hard time deciding between this and a Grom. I’ve heard Groms have alot more aftermarket options but it’s been acouple years now so I’m guessing it’s probably pretty close by now. I’ll probably just buy whatever I can get a better deal on. I just really wanna start riding and I think this is perfect to start on plus my ride to work is 30min, all back roads along the ocean (twistys). This would be perfect and alot of fun!

      Yeah man...for $5000 you can get much more motorcycle on the used market. I bought a used Z125 last year for $2400 and probably wouldn't think about paying more than $2500, as fun as it is to ride. Dealerships and their fee's kill me ever walking into a dealership and buying a new motorcycle. Always used market for me.
