I really can't believe Honda haven't officially released this bike in Europe. There is huge demand for it.
well, I think it's a market problem. They have 125cc already for the EU. So, to homologate it's a fuss for them. Demand is not great for sure.
They just give as much as cb350 too...
EU wants big bikes, more money for gas, registration, and eventually speed penalties...
EU become modern prison for the workforce, and people without any freedoms..
700+ legislators need something to do, earn pay, more laws, restrictions, certificates, license,s and other stuff to upkeep politicians..
@@mariojanaf5474 unhinged
I spoke to Honda UK and they said basically its supply. Only one factory so honda choose the world markets. Makes sense
@@richardshilling2958
These bikes were very popular in my youth. Even 50cc. Now when gas is extremely expensive they could be polarized again. We see soo many japan people not budge for demand.
Dont know why the hell they don't just try - even with only test markets.
For me better than a scoot, low maintenance, and basic electrics. See most of them start after 40y with new gas and that's it.
They are short-minded people.
Tradicionalist.
Stop it. UK gets the new Dax and it’s way cooler.
that's got to be the coolest motorcycle trailer I've ever seen. 🏆🏆
Wat is het merk van je trailer?
Need that trailer!
He made a video about the trailer 8 months ago. I just watched it after watching this video. I don’t remember the brand name it’s French.
Really cool thing.👍
@@GratefulEd907 Found their other video, it's a "Cochet" (Brand) Trailer that they seem to have further customized. Cool piece of kit
They really should bring the CT125 over to the UK... that big rack on the back would be ideal for food delivery drivers and their top boxes.
TBH.. i would buy one just to go touring on.
Seven seas Dewsbury in Yorkshire are importing them ...
I’d rather have the new Dax but it’s not coming to the US anytime soon that I know of.
Me too, but I suffer from procrastination though I know I would love a ct
I already have a CT125 but boy am I jealous of that trailer!
The coolest stuff was your motorcycle trailer with the crank leveling. 😊
Does that bring back memories. I once worked at a Honda dealer in the early 80's, and the 125 was every where. That sound hasn't changed, I bet the horse power has.
There were a lot of 125's round...but there were no Trail 125's.
They are a new offering!
I bought one when they first came out, msrp 3899. Use it as a grocery getter and errand runner. Love it
Very cool video! Really love that motorcycle trailer!
I bet that would be a lot more useful than a GS1250 when the conditions got really bad
Uhhh... that 4 stroke bike shop was amazing - I couldn't stand up after watching otherwise I would have embarrassed myself - "shawiiiing!"
Okay.. I've just seen the Honda EZ-9 for the first time in my life on this video.. and I think I'm in LOVE! 😍 OMG I have to get one!! 😮
Das een ferm machine. Die vormen en kleur geeft het een future military looks precies. Ferm!
Ahh so jealous!! ❤ can I also just mention how fricken amazing that trailer is!!
Thanks for showing us Smokey ! I’ve just got a brand new DAX but I’d get a CT as well if they came to 🇬🇧 ! That rack on the back is awesome !
You can buy them in the UK. I've got one
Man, the color is great! Over here in the colony's the only option is red still, no issues with registration.
That trailer...holy smokes that is awesome!
Seen some of those sweet smaller cc at the Mecum auto show in November here in Vegas. They all looked brand new. Whole collection was sold between $3,500 and $6,000 each.
Can get the CT 125 in Vegas for $4000.( November....we know the price went up)
12 week wait. I chose the Himalayan instead but think I just may pickup that CT 125 or the RE classic 350.
It's a candy store out there.
Perfect review Smokey! Keep up the hard work of putting these productions together. Keep smiling 😁
I will do my best 😅. It's a ton of work haha.
Love the bike ,but love that trailer too👍
They do have the supercub 125 in Belgium don't understand they don't allow the hunter 125.
Love your videos and you're positive attitude 🙌 also make another jimny video 😅
Enjoy the new bike Smokey! I would have left the dealer with more than the CT, some awesome toys in there.
Same here I had a hard time no spending money haha
What a nice bike... Super awesome...
Loads of sweet bikes. But I find myself wanting that awesome trailer?!
Trailer is smart way to pick up bikes. I just ride there, leave my own bike behind and ride back.
Great for a first ride, unless it rains...
That store looks amazing though.
And better be expensive then impossible.
I have both a 2006 Ct110 AG imported to USA from New Zealand and a 2021 CT125A. While I like the CT125A it just needs more power for American roads. The gearing as is is too low for on road and not low enough off road. The ct110 while slow on road too at least has dual speed transmission for the off road grunt. IMO it's the better bike even if carb and less displacement.
WOW I'd be like a kid in a sweetie shop .... I want I want I want .. love the bike tho love the green here in the uk waiting for companies to import them 10 month waiting list
Super video! Thanks
Some people from Poland registered DR650 in Georgia first ... and than import to Poland and finnaly register in PL.
Good luck !!!
I'm thinking about getting one of these for my first bike. I've been looking around and a dealer about an hour away has one in stock. It would be a pretty big purchase for me so not something I just want to do on a whim, but they seem to have a decent demand, I feel like I should buy it while I can.
I've always wanted a bike, growing up I rode my best friends dirt bikes often so I have some experience. Unfortunately when we were 26 (I'm 34 now) he passed away in a moto accident. He was going way too fast around a bend in the road and hit someone making a turn through his lane. That really scared me away from bikes, but I've still always wanted one. I learned of these "Mini-Motos" Honda puts out, and then I saw the Ct125 in green and kinda feel in love with the little bike. I think it would make a lot more sense for me to drive this around town from Spring-Autumn rather than my car. It's something I really want to do, but honestly I'm afraid still.
I know if my friend wasn't driving an extremely powerful bike the way he was he'd probably still be with us here today, but it's a hard thing to shake. Which extents that fear out to - I'm worried about every other driver out there on the road and not trusting all them in cars/trucks. I can really see myself on this Honda though.....
This is a very VERY solid and well build bike that will last a lifetime. 😊
Always see them in Thailand. Coolest little bike ever :)
Woah; takes allot of effort to get that thing into Europe, if it wouldnt cost +-10k like you mentioned i would also get one
Taxes and regulations in Europe are ridiculous. SO thankful to be an American! Nice bike too!
I have five Honda trail 70’s all mint love the bike. Have 4 the Honda trail 50’s hard to find here in the United states
I guess for that price, you'll have to love it!😂
Love the OD GREEN, I WANT ONE
the Hunter cub is build in Thailand and cost there around 2100-2300 USD
Bonjour splendide tout les véhicules de ce genre dommage que cela a disparu des catalogues Honda cordialement
yeah, this Honda is amazing, I had something similar but of Chinese production.. but very same body profile 110cc.. some 12 years ago in Ukraine.. before all these Russian invasions.. and I must say, I had the best rides of my life on that thing with my yet to be wife. Haha very nice memories, driving it under summer rain through the forest hidden villages in rural Ukraine.
The Four Stroke Barn was incredible! I've not said 'wow' so many times during a youtube video!
Made me moist
sweet trailer!
I still love my 1977 Honda trail 90
The registration cost surprised me, in Kansas USA registration is $20 and they just make sure its not stolen and has turn signals and running lights. In and out in 30 minutes usually.
C90adventures has a kids jeep with a license plate on it in Utah. I'm living in the wrong country to do what I love 😂😭🙈
Brings back memories from the past
Looks like you had fun on the little bike.
Oh yeah! So simpel and pure hhaa
Thanks for another great video Smokey!
I'm not sure what the CT125 sells for in the USA but it would be hard to justify twice the price of the "new" Honda XR150 (of which I have an identical 2015 model, here in darkest Africa.
I recently added up the purchase prices of the bikes I currently have (and use for learner bike training lessons & adventure bike rental) - and would still have about $300 change vs. buying a new Honda Monkey
125, here in South Africa!
Here's the list (not mentioning the initial condition, kms on the clock or roadworthy status of the bikes:
2013 Puzey Jet 125 scooter
2005 Yamaha XTZ125
2015 Honda XR150
2010 Zongshen ZSM200
1981 Suzuki GSX250 (customized cafe racer)
1997 Honda XL400V TransAlp
2010 BMW F800 GS (on which my son recently won a BMW off-road riding skills challenge 😊)
I have seen an add in America and I believe it said 3990$. You also have a lot of bikes damn 😁👌🔥
Yes in the USA we only have the red colour though, I like the green and tan from Japan better. You can get a lightly used one for around $3000 which is pretty good.
@@LifeofSmokey What kind of biketrailer do you use?
Is the CT125 available in SA? The exchange rate is killing us. I’d be quite happy with a little 125cc, you can have an epic adventure if you can dodge the taxis….
With our poor exchange rate, I doubt whether it will ever be for sale here in SA. : (
I brought a CT 110 in 86 to get fishy and game out of woods off trail or road in the the deep south is and town legal still have it should I update to 125 🤔😁
We used to laugh at those mopeds back in the day . But I guess now they are more accepted . Probably because of the low cost ... I still love my old Triumphs , a Norton Commander & 3 Harleys . Now I am too old and crippled . I can't hold up big bikes anymore . Maybe I should buy one of these Hondas to enjoy my retirement . 🤔🤷🏼😊
Odd that here in the states we couldn’t get them as availability was scarce. Now with 2023 being released in Asia and Canada with updates. The 2022 CT125 aka Trail 125 are showing up at dealers. Plenty of availability. No word of 2023. Of course they are unloading the 2022s here as the 2023 has the updated longer stroke motor that has better torque at lower RPM for better acceleration. Did you get a 2023?
I'm not sure if it's the 2022 or 2023 it's all in Japanese 😅. I do think it's just a 2022 haha.
I love that green!
That's awesome. How did you order yours in Japan? Was shipping crazy expensive?? Especially seeing the documents written in Japanese as well as the write triangle on the back fender. I'm based in Japan and just got my C125 with similar forms.
From a shop called Fourstrokebarn , they order a ton of bikes in Japan everyday 😁
And shipping not sure , the dealer asked 3000€ extra. He made good money for sure 🙈
I wonder if Fourstrokebarn can do the opposite? I was looking for a DKW Hummel moped to ride in Japan. Or if you can recommend shop that'll be appreciated.
I Wish Honda had brought this Version to Brazil! excelente video
eu também hahaha
@@djmachado6102 comprar pra um passeio no fnds seria irado
@@MsMycene nusss nem fala!!
I’m starting to look into buying a Hunter Cub from Japan as well. Can you give me any recommendations for how to go about purchasing one and having it shipped to the states?
Into the states no , In the Netherlands there is a dealer who imports Japanese bikes all the time. You can order one in the states if I'm correct
Oh look, a professional reseller grabbed all the cool stuff he could find so you won't, stack them without doing any restoration job and reselling them at a premium price (motocompo etc), amazing...
I already know much about the CT125 and its a great bike. Having said that...where do I get that trailor!!!
Small French company called cochet 😅
I love this
I like that trailer. I need to look for one like it.
Brand is called Cochet , French build
@@LifeofSmokey I’ll find something similar here in California. I’m sure we don’t import it. 😁
Is this the same as the trail 125cc that is now being sold in USA? I saw one at my local Honda Dealer in this same color recently, now I am definitely going to buy one.
Yes it is. I have been told that the USA only got the red ones 😁
@@LifeofSmokey for 2022. The 2023 models are the same color.
It's still cheaper than Singapore. In Singapore, the price for that bike can cost you almost close to SGD 20k
World best (ever) motorcycle!
That's ridiculous! It's only THB 90,000 in Thailand (2,500 Euro). That's a third of the price!
built in thailand for the thai market
Try UK.. Not part of the EU now unfortunately. But a phone call could get it registered in the worst case scenario you need to take it to a garage there.. Then re-import back home. But I quess you can claim that back if you are a company owner or self employed?
That sounds complicated haha. Will work on it when weather is better 😁👌
How can I buy one of those! Would be a great first bike 🏍 😁
Find someone who imports one from Japan 😅.
Like the bike, love your trailer.
Hello , great video . I was very charmed by this Honda CT 125, a really cool and lively little motorcycle. I like small capacities. I was also very interested in your motorcycle trailer, can you tell me what is the make and model of this trailer? - She's just fantastic! , Regards .
It's a French brand called Cochet 😌
It looks like fun but I just want to go back to the used bike import shop.
Bike's awesome... but what's the make and model of that cool trailer??
Cochet , small French brand 😌
Need that tilting trailer. Who makes that?
A small French company called Cochet. 😌
Where did you get your motorcycle trailer, I have to get one!
Small French company called Cochet 😁
Hi From Northern Ireland.
I Got my Honda CT,125 From Thailand and imported it through the U.K. For Euro,5775.0,It should be with me soon. Maybe April 20th.
Awesole congrats!!! It's so much fun to ride 😁🤌
beautiful I love the green !
Can you tell me who makes the trailer ?
Thanks
It's a French company called Cochet 😌
@@LifeofSmokey that’s a slick trailer it’s so nice to not have to deal with ramps
@@LifeofSmokey Thanks Smokey those trailers are an engineering marvel have you done a video on the trailers?
I doubt we can get it here in the States but I'd love to be a dealer for them lol
The phone on the trailer 🤣🤣🤣
Yeah got lucky 😅
What is the name of the trailer you have? That is slick!
French company called Cochet 😌
Where do you buy one of those trailers
Cochet , small French brand. Try google it I would say so google gives you something near you 😌
The CT125 looks like an awesome "around the town" bike! Just put a beer crate on the back to have some storage and you're ready to go 😅
I really hope Honda will bring it to Europe oficially, especially when other small 125cc are available here...
unfortunately i don't think this will gonna happen, Honda had the SuperCub on sale here in the EU and it wasn't a big success, and the ct125 is the HuntersCub, so you know how sales managers think.... but yes i agree with you its a nice allround bike, u can offroad it, you can go shopping with, go daily to work with it, it you can go anywhere for small $$$
@@ramiretz wasn't success like they lost money on it or just didn't earn much?
I guess the same would be with TW200?
@@kanapkazpasztetem they didn't sell it very well, not lost money but sold not very good... The TW200 is a other story, the only country in Europe which imported them was Spain.... If you see one u can be sure it's a imported from Spain.... The 125 Version was sold in a lot of country's in Europe...
@@ramiretz oh they did? so registering TW200 in EU shouldn't be that hard? I guess I need to look for spanish bike selling sites 😅 or ship a new one from US assuming I'll be easily able to register it 😜
I can see some TW125 in my country on sale but all are like late 90s or early 2000s. There is also Suzuki vanvan RV125 but they seem to be rare and quite expensive because of that.
@@kanapkazpasztetem if you want a TW200 you should search a used one which was already registered in the EU so it wont be that hard , importing a used from us would be quit expensive to register in the EU with a lot of difficulty's, a new one which was never registered anywhere is nearly impossible to register in EU because they need to meet the actual emission and safety standards and this is impossible with a carburetor engine and no ABS.... for the Suzuki VanVan, i think its much more easier to find one because they were sold here in EU until 2017.. i remember i saw a new one at the dealer for 4000 in the last year they sold them.
alternatively if you want a bike like this you could also look for a skyteam raptor this was a clone of the vanvan an friend of mine had one and it was pretty okay he did a lot of KM on that bike....
I now know that my life had NO meaning because I'll never be able to visit the 4 Stroke Barn.
You should have bought it in the UK. 5500 euros on the road registered. Plus rode it home.
Damn that sound like a really good idea!! Would have been so cool 😂. Well if you find a dealer who can give it some European paperwork maybe I will 😅
@@LifeofSmokey I believe the UK is and will always be in Europe. Just not the European Union gravy train.
I'm sure our paperwork would be just fine. Good luck at getting yours sorted
least you wont see many on the road,, there is a guy in the UK that runs similar bikes nathan the postie in think
That'll be nathanthepostman on YT
@@hondamonkeyboy thats the Guy
Germany obviously protect their own motorbike market that is so hard to import lots of good motorbikes to EU from other parts of the world.
Wtfc is going on in that store, all rare hondas are in there, amazing 🥳🥳🥳😃🤟🤟
He just brings big containers filled with Japanese bikes from Japan 😁
Cちゃんと自賠責に入ってるのがウケる🤣
What kind of trailer do you have?
Small French company called Cochet :-)
Crazy prices
I wanted yo buy one but places wanted 6.5k for it insane
Want to know more about that trailer
Google "cochet" 😌
Smoky uit de VS ? Hallo met Belgische kentekenplaten 😂
There are multiple reason why my channel is located in the US. First of all it's because I speak English and I don't want anybody talking Dutch on my channel as it's bad for my CPM as I want to attract a bigger US based audience. Second I don't want my channels to be seen in the Belgium RUclips lists on Socialblade so the Belgian fake media finds me and starts writing ridiculous faulty and frustrating articles about me. Have been on RUclips for over 10 years , you learn a lot. Also the country a RUclips channel is placed in has nothing to do with your audience , I could just as easy set the channel in China. Doesn't matter :-)
Can you give me a link for the trailer please .
Link no , it's a French brand called Cochet. Bought it at a local Belgian dealer called Matthys in Vichte 😁
I like that color….
You should have bought this bike from Thailand where they are manufactured you would have saved a good load of money the current price is 84,900 Baht= 2,270 Euros .
Couldn't find anyone who could send it to me from Thailand 😅. I only have connections from Japan 🙈
@@LifeofSmokey I will be importing these bikes and the Navi this year .
How did you get the green model
Have someone look for 2 months in Japan 😅
When I sold my bike to a friend who lived in Belgium he asked me for a Certificate of Conformity so he could register the bike.I went to my local Honda dealer and he simply asked Honda for one and I got it 14 days later completely free.
Was that a Japanese Honda that was never sold in Europe? No way this is that simple 😅
@@LifeofSmokey no it was bought in the UK but imported into Belgium.
Why?
And what happened to the Himmy?
What company did you buy that trailer from?
It's a French brand called Cochet. Bought it from a Belgian dealer called Matthys in Vichte 😅
Subbed
how much is it?
I have an idea , register it in Montana . You can keep it at my house, lots of places to ride .
Awesome idea! Will you send me pictures from time to time? 😁
@@LifeofSmokey hell I’ll do better then that I will send videos and you would be welcome to use it anytime. We have a spare bedroom
ich möchte unbedingt die genau gleiche honda ct kaufen. wie geht das????
