[@kimetogo]

Great little bike teh CB 125. Economical and fun to ride. Nice ride out. Cheers

[@taydan04]

Yeah I do sometimes miss my little 125! Such a fun bike to chuck about. And the fuel economy! I definitely miss the fuel economy! 😂

[@IrelandRider]

I'm be getting a bike delivered soon and I'll need to run it in, if you ever wanted to have company on a bike ride I'd tag along lol. Im just south of Birmingham city centre. Cool vid btw 🤙

[@taydan04]

Oooh what did you go for? Run in is always ‘fun’ haha. I’m doing my DAS at the moment so hoping to be doing a run in on a Tiger 660 soon enough haha. Yeah man, hmu once your back on 2 wheels, I’m sure we could arrange something. :)

@@taydan04 long story short, I got my money back from honda in Bromsgrove on a cb500f and I've bought a Honda 350 forza instead lol. I'm just waiting for them to fit my heated grips, quad lock mount and danali sound bomb horn. It should be within 2 weeks buddy 👍

@@IrelandRider oh that’s quite the change haha. What made you go twist and go over the CB? ^^ I was down at Sutton Motorcycles Bromsgrove myself yesterday getting my rear tyre changed.

@@taydan04 I broke my leg in 3 places in February under my knee, now I have 2 metal plates and I didn't realize how painful it's become just to change gear, I've been riding since 1994 and I feel like I've gone to the dark side, but No-one says anything about owning an NC750 dct honda, I would of loved one, but budget wise it didn't allow me too.

@@IrelandRider oh don’t get me wrong. Nothing wrong with an automatic (I actually ended up finishing my CBT on a Yamaha scooter cause I couldn’t get the turn in the road down on the manual). Sorry to hear about your injury. Sounds like the Forza could be just the ticket for you! Was it a riding injury?

3,04. Get to the front to be 1st away from the lights.

[@taydan04]

On a 125 that would mean all the people I have passed now need to get past me again haha.

[@i0nlz]

didnt even realise the cbf could sit at 30mph in 5th without stalling

[@taydan04]

@@i0nlz yeah the 2021-current model loves to rev surprisingly low!

[@i0nlz]

@@taydan04 just tested, now i can actually save fuel 😭 i used to sit in 3rd at 30

[@Dutyfree92]

Why do you sit in traffic? 😂 what's the point in the bike if your not going to filter 😂

[@taydan04]

@@Dutyfree92 mostly because filtering on a 125 is utterly pointless. As soon as traffic starts moving everyone you have passed now needs to overtake your slow ass again. 😂

[@i0nlz]

@@taydan04eh not if your doing the limit

[@taydan04]

@@i0nlz it’s more about the time it takes to achieve the limit. A 125 is gonna be slower off the line than any boy racer in his hatchback.
