  • Today I explain how and why I came to own 3 Honda Ct 125's. This bike is the most sought after mini-moto on the market and for good reason.

    Hi from Ireland.
    I had to find my ct 125 in Thailand, and import it to Ireland, Hope to get it 5th March. Enjoy your 3 ct 125s.

      Hi Lawrence! I hope the cost shipping that over wasn't bad but I love your enthusiasm for the new bike! Ireland is probably a great riding experience for the CT!

    Oh wow..what a crazy connection, i live here in Pittsburgh, well i checked gatto online for ct125 and i also seen they had 2 them, here's the crazy part, when i called, the guy told me someone bought both of them, i asked him who hell buys 2 same bikes out frustration lmao,
    Well now i know exactly who bought 2 of them

      @jrmotocamp  7 месяцев назад

      Thanks for the comment, that is crazy lol. If it makes you feel better they didn't do me any favors, in fact they took advantage of my enthusiasm and the lack of bikes. Now you can find these on Marketplace easy. I'm putting most miles on the bike I got off Marketplace and the two from Gatto are kept nice on road only so far but plans to get them dirty are in the works

    Good Morning, what a find, 2 for the price of 3.( almost seems like) Amazing how the dealership chooses to mark up or not. Is $3,900.00 still the cost or has the demand drove the price up again. Funny how the Himalayan and the CT 125 go together. ( John Lakewood..." On two feet".) We hope to see your wife and yourself enjoying the scenes. Stay Safe!

    • @jrmotocamp
      @jrmotocamp  Год назад

      Thank you Ed! Yes the MSRP is still $3999 but the unavailability has many dealers taking advantage. It reminds me of when I bought my RV during Covid.... no bargaining power. Hopefully I make some of that up in rentals but we will see! Lol. Keep an eye out for us! Thanks for watching!

    I think were on the same page. My first bike was a Rupp Sprint, then Yamaha JT1, then Yami 125, 250, 360 and a few others. My only road bike, a Honda ST1300 which I got rid of, and now Xr650L, Africa Twin and Monkey (list price). Not that I need another bike but eyeing the Trail 125 because like you, I have a weakness for two wheels

    I do have a question. How do you think you’re bike is with Door Dash? Is that a good use for it? I am deciding between a couple of different bikes and one of my justifications is use it for the same purpose.

    • @jrmotocamp

      I think it's great as long as you set your maps for avoid highways. The first tip over $4 pays for your gallon of gas and the rest is profit. I put a nice large food box on Moe and he is getting 108 to the gallon. It's a lot of fun actually.

    I can almost guess your weight by your speed loss coming out of the downhill run.
    I have problem crossing the Crescent City Connection (CCC) in New Orleans. Coming down off that bridge my Hunter Cub will rap up to 60 mph for over 2 minutes. How bad to you think that is?

    • @jrmotocamp
      @jrmotocamp  Год назад

      Lol yes very true. I have a hill near me, probably 8% grade that I shoulder ride until I peak then hit 62 on the way down. I added the "Brake Free" helmet brake light when I got these bikes and it really seems to keep traffic off my tail or slow as they pass me. I'm always riding GPS in the avoid highway mode! Be safe!

    • @jrmotocamp
      @jrmotocamp  Год назад +2

      I actually commute to work and that is on road that is up to 45-55 mph speed limits. I ride 35 miles round trip and it does great. I climb one big hill on the trip but can maintain 40mph so I don't have to pull on the shoulder. Everything else is a piece of cake!

      Ct's aren't official bikes in the UK but I've just secured a green one from a UK specialist importing from Thailand. Arriving end of March but not on the road til June as we have to go through 'single vehicle type approval' then registered, all straight forward but takes a little time.
      BTW from 2023 the CT is now considered 2nd generation with some nice changes.
