From the Honda, C100 , C90 all of which i have owned. All maintained by myself, without any problems of removing Plastic parts.It now seem's you are worried it you break something. One of my bikes is a Honda Innova ANF 125 . Front brake light switch problem,...at its MOT I left it at the dealers to fix, and not even one scratch in the process. Manufacturers are making repairs more difficult for DIY guys.

Thank you for the video. I have a lightly used/new 23 Honda Super Cub. I have to replace the battery and install a battery charger cord to the handlebars. The body panels are a super tight fit. I had no idea how to remove it without breaking something. So I stopped until I could find more information.

The CT125 was invented by frustrated C125 owners..😂🤣.. I was really interested in buying this bike.. now I'm not so sure.. You got a nice sunny day with a beer and nothing on the line.. still a huge pain in the rump.. Could you imagine trying to fix something with it pouring rain or wind or both.. Never mind freezing cold..😳..Hmmm.🤔.. You're doing owners a huge service by making this video..👍👍

Luckily, the Super Cub is extremely reliable. I haven't had any mechanical failures of any kind... not even after my crazy 10K mile trip around the USA in July. The only errant behavior that I've seen so far has been with the Smart Key randomly misbehaving: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bmjdpoFrh7eVoaM In a coin toss between the Super Cub and the Trail 125 (CT125), the SC would win as my daily rider. The CT125's top speed of only ~52 MPH hurts its chances for successful road trips where highways are concerned. The SC can cruise comfortably at 55-60 MPH all day long. Cheers! 😉👍 --QM

Yeah, I used your video here to help me get the airbox off so I loosened the screws that were on it as far as I could see without the leg shield off and I couldn’t get it off and so I was like OK. I need to take the leg shield off so I can see what the heck is behind there and there was a screw thing holding it and it was attached to another hose so I am glad I didn’t go monkey on it and break something so with the leg shield off, I was able to see, and with that one screw taken off, I was able to wiggle the airbox off and then now I can see the top valve real good. I didn’t have to take all this stuff off, but I was like I must see. I have to see so I did.

Thx for the feedback... I'm glad to help! These plastic bikes have lots of fragile little tabs, so it's always tricky the first time through one of these disassembly jobs. I'm surprised that I didn't lose tabs on the front garnish or fork covers. I have a Honda Silverwing 600 that is a similar nightmare in terms of interference fits and fragile tabs. Taking the front fairing off "carefully" is an exercise in futility.... they are made to go on once and NEVER come off. The service manuals and exploded parts diagrams might show you where the tabs are, but they never tell you HOW to get them apart... that's where things usually go sideways. 😉 --QM

Thanks for a really informative video. I've just changed the front mudguard/fender on mine. It was snapped off when the bike blew over in a gust of wind. (Centre stand narrow, bike light and large surface area - ugh.) I would have really struggled without watching you remove the front badge and leg shields. I followed your example and it worked great. Only damage was the same very small tab on the front shield you lost! I found it helped to push the clips/lugs for the shield out from back as there is just room to poke around behind the upper leg shields with whatever you have to hand. Same deal with the back clips inside the fender on the lower shields. I used a little piece of soft wood. I was only able to try this because you showed how the clips look and fit, so once again, big thanks.

I've broken my fair share of fairing tabs over the years, so I knew that the Cub would probably be the same situation... lots of plastic cladding everywhere to remove for just about any maintenance task.

Yep, it's quite the chore to undress this new Cub. Several friends of mine had Honda Passports (same bike as the C90) back in the early 80's, and we could pull the leg shield and have the carburetor off in just a couple of minutes. The new all-plastic body on this model has lots of interlocking plastic clips and frame boss interferences to contend with. The process can be learned and time minimized, but the risk of breaking tabs is always there... it's too easy to rush and snap those interference-fit pieces. I'm waiting for the CT125 to finally become a reality. I'm planning to buy 2 of them, add a few long-haul and off-road accessories, and then ride them across the country with another moto-fanatic (not sure who yet). There aren't any plastics or fancy farings to break on those little mules... just metal, knobby tires, and the bikes are light enough to carry/pull out of really nasty situations if the need arises! 👍 --QM

Thx for the feedback! I thought the same thing about the "center cover"... accessing the battery for any kind of checkup might result in broken tabs for other owners. The older C90's (e.g. Passport here in the USA) didn't have as much plastic, and the parts weren't nearly as tight or complex... pulling the leg shield was a very simple affair. I don't recommend that anyone disassemble the new C125A too many times, or there will be lots of swearing and broken plastics. The high-wear areas for this procedure will be the center cover and the smart key trim ring/cover... both of those pieces are very tight and have interference-fits that require significant pressure and prying to maneuver on/off of the bike. I wonder if the dealers have some specialized pry tools for the job? 👍 --QM

Hey QuasiMotard -- great video. I have a quick question for you. When reinstalling the battery after a recharge, I accidentally dropped one of the battery cover screws down inside the bike. I cannot see the screw and really don't know where it ended up. I suspect it's sitting on top of the engine somewhere. Do you think it's worth the trouble to remove the leg shield to try to retrieve this lost screw? Any other ideas? Thanks for your time.
@QuasiMotard
@QuasiMotard 4 жыл бұрын
I made the same mistake and dropped one of the screws down into the body. Fortunately, I was able to retrieve it with a magnetic pick-up tool. I wouldn't advise removing the leg shield just for that recovery, and I don't think it's really necessary to have both screws in that cover. However, I would make sure that the upper one is in place due to the cable management on the cover. You should be able to get another screw from your local Honda dealer (P/N: 90132-MJE-D40, cost is around $2.95). Cheers! 👍 --QM

Another approach is to simply run a wire externally, and secure it well. Much simpler, and still hidden clear up to the top of the leg shield assembly. More importantly, if you connect this wire directly to the battery, you now have a constantly hot wire running through the hardware and wiring harness. This means that when it chafes and wears, (and, that IS when, NOT if) you have (1) a battery drain, and (2) a fire hazard even when the bike is unattended in the garage. Attaching to the alternator/generator means you will have power whenever the engine is running, and none with the engine isn’t running. Just a recommendation - and a safety warning.

I feel your pain. I did this 2 days before your video aired without the book......Annngggry......broke two tabs on the battery cover. Speaking of which where did you find your plastic? The battery cover was the hardest for me which is weird because that's the one you need to remove when your fob system dies at night in a gas station. At time time I swapped the air box to a K&N intake and new exhaust. I was also going to take the bar plastic off for a phone wire and gave up; I would brake it so I choose a different route. I took all the plastic off again last night but removed the seat first. Removing the seat made it so much easier to get the leg shield off and reinstall the battery cover. Had all plastic back on in ten minutes. I installed a Yoshimura GP exhaust, Chimera K&N Intake, NGK CPR7EAIX-9 Iridium Plug, Bazzaz ZFi fuel management system and an aRacer CubeG. Haven't touched the sprockets yet. The cub is my only bike and around here there is a lot of hills which the cub couldn't maintain speed when going up.....I was going to get run over. Now it can and it's fun off the line. Important for cub users. If you install an exhaust and intake to help the engine breath it will breath fire! Mine hit 260 degrees F on normal test ride. The factory setting is just too lean for any mods, it will burn up. The fuel controller and colder plug I then added brought it down to normal operating temp 220 Degrees F. Check out the Gcube. You can see all the CPU data in real time. I leave it on RPM and Engine Temp. I love this thing as it stopped me from stupidly burning up my motor. www.steadygarage.com/store/two-wheels/mc-parts/honda-cub-125/aracer-cube-g-ultra-compact-obd-data-gauge-2019-honda-cub-125

Agreed! I was not pleased with the difficulty in removing the leg shield from the bike. The old Super Cub (Passport was the name here in the USA back in the 80's) was very easy to maintain and tear-down when necessary... about a 5-minute job to remove the leg shield with no worry of breaking fragile little plastic tabs everywhere. I'm due for my 4K valve adjustment and my 5K service is just around the corner, so I'm not looking forward to pulling the leg shield again if I need more clearance for those tasks. 👍 --QM

That way you discourage customers from doing the repairs themselves. I hate that mentality
@QuasiMotard
@QuasiMotard 4 жыл бұрын
No, sorry... you didn't miss that one... I just didn't record that portion of the project because I was running short on time and needed to get it done. The lights that I installed are the Denali DM's, similar to this model: www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/denali-dm-20-trioptic-led-light-kit-with-datadim-technology. I snagged a clearance deal on the original version (1.0, no dimming function) for only ~$75/pair... so I bought their remaining stock of 6 kits. 😉 The lights are mounted on the original side reflector brackets that I bent to fit (mangled them into a slight "S" shape to clear the leg shield). They are secure and stay exactly where I want them. The broken mount that I experienced on my Kansas trip wasn't that bracket... it was aluminum "shoe" that bolts into the light itself that snapped off... bummer. So, I just replaced that light with one from one of the other 5 remaining kits. The hard part about that project was tracing and tapping a switched +12V line for the relay that powers this kit. You can't get to anything useful or run your new wiring without removing the leg shield, so it's not a trivial process like most other motorcycles. The black wire on the back of the ignition switch was correct one. I didn't want to burden the little 10-amp fused circuit that runs everything else on the bike, so I tapped that black wire and fed it to a relay that switches another direct (fused) circuit from the battery to power the driving lights, the USB charger, and the Garmin Zumo GPS cradle (another 2-3 amps max). If you want to tackle a project like that without going through your dealer's service (and crazy labor fees), then your only option is to find a buddy that's mechanically-inclined and bribe him with food/beer/etc. I wouldn't recommend doing it without a shop manual, or at least an exploded parts diagram to know how everything fits together. That will spare you a lot of broken plastics and disappointment. 👍 --QM

I was also unimpressed with the Cub's daytime visibility. I installed a set of Denali DM LED driving lights on the front forks to give more daytime conspicuity in traffic, and to add more close-field fill and reach at night. The difference is literally night and day after the upgrade. You can see the difference here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aWilhXh-jbyZrrc . I reused the original reflector brackets on the front forks as my mounts. I removed the reflector from the bracket and then bent the mounting edge about 90° outward and upward to allow the driving lights to clear the fork shrouds. These lights are just small enough to clear the edge of the leg shield at full left/right steering lock. You can probably find similar LED pods with changable lenses. You might take a look at these options from SuperBrightLEDs... they aren't as compact as the Denali DM's, but they are a LOT cheaper: - www.superbrightleds.com/vehicle-lights/motorcycle/led-light-pods/led-light-pod-2-modular-led-off-road-work-light-10w-900-lumens - www.superbrightleds.com/catalog/product/view/id/216329/s/3-led-pod-lights-20w-round-off-road-lights-yellow-lens-up-to-950-lumens-single-2-pack-plr-y20w-x/category/4163/ - www.superbrightleds.com/catalog/product/view/id/216320/s/3-led-pod-lights-20w-square-off-road-lights-yellow-lens-up-to-950-lumens-single-2-pack-pl-y20w-x/category/4163/ Cheers, and good luck shopping! 😉👍 --QM

That tedious body work breaking up the wind better? What are the pros and cons of each?

The SC is a superior on-road machine compared to the CT. Routine maintenance doesn't require digging through the SC's delicate plastics very often, so I don't mind that compromise. Changing the air filter or doing valve adjustments is certainly more difficult on the SC, but it's not horrible. Most of my riding is city commuting and touring on rural highways. I purchased the CT so I could do some minor off-roading and adventure camping. Unfortunately, the reality of adventure riding and off-road adventures is that you need to travel long distances on pavement to get out to the good off-road sections. The CT just doesn't have the chops for long, high-speed highway slogs to cross long distances or between states unless you have a LOT of patience. Engine tuning and gearing are the primary differences between the two machines. The SC has a 14/36T ratio for better on-road performance, and the CT has a 14/39T ratio for better low-end torque and off-road riding. The engines are virtually identical between the two, but the CT's intake and exhaust have been tuned for more mid-range torque and less top-end power to suit off-road riding. That means the CT will strain to achieve or maintain higher speeds on the road because it doesn't have enough power on top and it "runs out of gear" before the SC does. The CT's top speed on the highway generally hovers in the 50-53 MPH range on flat ground, so that limits your options for which roads can be traveled safely. On the other hand, the SC can reliably travel 55-60 MPH on the highway (up to 65 MPH sustained in most circumstances), so the choice of roads is easier and safer. The leg shield on the SC gives slightly better aerodynamis and protection from the elements than the naked CT, so that's another benefit for long rides. Cheers! 😉👍 --QM

@@QuasiMotard Thank you for the informative and thoughtful response! I know that I shouldn't be paying attention to either of them, but dammit they look fun! :D The CT appeals to me due to it looking so much like a BMX bike, giving the sense of it being something that you could just throw around and not care about it getting dinged. I also like the idea of something that could do more in general than my Sportster, and be a lot less intimidating for getting slow speed maneuver practice or potentially helping my wife learn to ride (she's only 5' 11" tall, but so is Cheyleesi, and she just got a Trail). Also, the idea of being able to ride something up onto the sidewalk at my condo has a certain appeal, and the throw-around, easy storage aspect seems lessened with the SC. That said, I really just don't ride on any trails. For 99% of my intended riding, the SC probably would be better suited. It'd be nice to have something where I'd be less alarmed by gravel roads (the Metzeler CruiseTec tires on my Sporty are awesome on pavement, but terrible for anything loose). I dunno. Probably never gonna happen, but man oh man these look fun. Thanks again!

The driving lights are the Denali DM 2.0 ( www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/denali-dm-20-trioptic-led-light-kit-with-datadim-technology ), and I mounted those on the OEM side reflector mounts (just bent the brackets to fit and not hit the leg shield when the steering is turned to full-lock).

Hi, I live in South Korea. I have a 2018 Super Cub C110. It's not easy to get a service manual in English for me since they didn't release the 2018 C110 in North America. For general maintanence and basic electrical diagrams, do you think there would be much difference between the 2019 C125 model and mine? I'm no mechanic but I would like to understand the basics of this bike. Thanks! P.S. keep the super cub videos coming!

Thx for the feedback! The differences between the engine and electrical bits on the C110 vs the C125 are probably significant enough that you wouldn't want to get the C125 manual. However, you can probably find a close match with one of the UK or EU versions of the C110 manuals. The bike is largely the same across those markets with slight differences to indicator shapes/sizes and license plate mounting options. You would at least get most of the maintenance specs and procedures listed out in English, even if the cosmetic items are slightly different. Good luck! 👍 --QM

@QuasiMotard
@QuasiMotard 5 жыл бұрын
The Super Cub can get you up to 60-ish mph, but it takes a while to get there because of the limited power that the engine makes (only about 8-9 HP). If you need a bike that can get you up to that speed comfortably and reasonably quickly, then you probably need to look toward the 200-300cc class motorcycles or scooters... they won't have any problems scooting around in traffic at 65 mph. My PCX150's that I have reviewed in other videos on my channel (Part 1 kzbin.info/www/bejne/hobaoZxvpdtjotk , and Part 2 kzbin.info/www/bejne/jn-pf4toiMmpmpY ) are almost fast enough, but they top out just under 65 mph. So, I don't usually like mixing with fast traffic on the PCX because it doesn't have any headroom to get out of trouble if necessary (e.g. accelerate away from cagers or get out of someone's blind spot). If you can test ride a few scooters or motorcycles before you buy, then that's your best way to know if they will suit your riding needs. Just be sure to take your test ride on higher speed routes to see how the bike feels and to know if you're comfortable doing it. Another point to keep in mind is that most dealers are more willing to let you test ride used bikes than new bikes, and this is ONLY if you have your motorcycle endorsement and current insurance (car or bike is usually fine). Good luck in your search! 👍 --QM

Like another poster I think I would go down the route of external power pack for my iPhone and it’s nav app (Pocket Earth - amazing!) Having watched you arm wrestle that Honda tupperware I’m now seriously questioning the thought of a SC. There are some interesting leads re the EU/UK importation of the CT125 ‘tho Brexit will probably screw that up! All in all the Hunter Cub sounds a far better option to me btw. are you experiencing any engine vibes through the bars? This is an issue on various thumpers with later models of iPhone and their digital camera stabilisation system - it killed two iPhone 7 cameras for me on a BMW R1200RT ... any pre iPhone 6S Plus with their optical stabilisation seem to be exempt Keep those action cams rolling!

Thanks for the feedback, Tony! The SC definitely has more plastic to wrestle than the classic Cubs of yesteryear. I was already planning to tear into mine to replace my damaged leg shield, so it was a good opportunity to do the wiring the "right way". However, I just helped a buddy wire a dual-USB charger on his SC direct to the battery for our recent road trip. He just plans to unplug the SAE power connector from it and use the battery side for a tender when the bike is parked for long periods. The Super Cub is a bit vibey in the bars, but engine vibration is to be expected with a high-revving little thumper. The larger issue that I"ve noticed is road impacts coming through the bars and causing my mounts to shake violently. Now I use the Quad Lock phone mount (along with their new vibration reducer), so that should help with the damaging vibrations reaching the phone. I have been using the Samsung Galaxy series for years (currently a S10+) without any camera failures so far (fingers crossed). As for the CT125, I already have two of them on order! I'll be sure to video that whole extravaganza... driving out to get it, signing paperwork, initial ride reviews, impressions, gripes, etc. Honda has teased us with November 2020 delivery, so we'll see how that turns out.

I guess I don't understand why you replaced the white shroud. I understand your son scratched it. But bike get war wounds. It builds character. Unless your looking at selling it anytime soon. If anything I would not install the new one until the old one is totally roached. Just my opinion. I hope they do release the Trail version. ADV are all the rage. Plus the Trail one looked more "manly". I'm actually in the process of buying a old 1981 CT110 from the original owner who got it as a gift when he was 10. It's been in storage for a decade or so. Looking forward to the fun side of riding. Currently on a 750 ACE.

I'm just OCD about scratches or damage on a new bike. I could have left it alone, but I had already ordered all of the bits several months ago, and I needed to remove the leg shield for the electrical wiring that I was installing... just a bit of disaster capitalism. Good luck on that CT110! I've been looking for one in decent condition, but didn't want to pay $3000+ for a collector-quality specimen... I plan to RIDE it! 😉 Another viewer mentioned that the CT125 is coming, so I started searching for it on the Internet. Sure enough, it's going to debut at the next Tokyo Motor Show! The prototype pictures show that it has spoke wheels, a large rear rack, and disc brakes front and rear! I'm anxious to see if that is a production-ready model... hopefully it won't take 3-4 years to reach the USA like the C125A did. We'll see... fingers crossed! 👍👍 --QM

I understand no one likes a scratch on a new motorcycle. But it will happen. Ya the CT's from the 70's and 80's draw big dollars on pristine shape. Here in Canada they are even harder to find. As most were never road certified and we're used on farms. Or up at cottages or hinting camps. Most are now found in barns. Back when they were new they were only $800. Why they aren't released here in North America I blame on bike companies. At the smaller price point they won't sell as many larger motorcycles. As you can agree with the new Super Cub is already over priced. It's not available in Canada. I was surprised they didn't release a E-Cub.

@@docpotts No, unfortunately I was pressed for time, so I stopped recording so I could finish the job and get on the road. The wiring was actually simple for just the USB charger piece. You can tap the solid black wire on the back of the ignition switch for your +12V switches source. I used a 3M waterproof parallel splice on that wire to feed the coil on a 12V Bosch-type relay. That relay switches my other loads (e.g. Garmin Zumo cradle, USB charger, and driving lights) direct from the battery (all fused with a dedicated 15A mini-ATC fuse). I ran the ground straight to the battery, but it could be attached to the frame ground instead. All of the wiring and relay follow the factory harnesses underneath the leg shield. The USB charger itself is mounted with zip ties behind the rubber splash guards above the airbox. If you are just planning to do the USB charger, you could power that directly from the switched +12v line (black wire) and ground would be any nearby frame ground). If I need to take the leg shield off again, then I will certainly take pictures or video of how I routed the cabling and stuffed the relay out of the path for the leg shield. 😉👍 --QM

@QuasiMotard
@QuasiMotard 4 жыл бұрын
I agree... it would be nice to know the rev's and how close to redline the motor is spinning. I'm sure that a small tach could be fitted, but tapping the electrical is a serious PITA because the leg shield needs to be removed to reach a +12V source (spark plug is easy, though). I tapped the +12V switched output (black wire) on the back of the ignition switch during this teardown, and I left a couple of extra pigtail taps for future projects. I have a bad habit of giving away my ideas and then someone else creates and markets them... oh, well. My idea (plan) for the tach is to 3D print a ring that surrounds the chrome bezel around the speedo (overlays it). The ring will be translucent white (diffused) and will have a ring of NeoPixel LED's embedded in the back of it. The plan is to have a circular RPM sweep and change colors or flash for redline/shift points. The colors, brightness, and patterns could all be adjusted in software (and wirelessly), so customization should be a breeze. I'm looking for a suitable microcontroller (Arduino or similar), and I'll probably adapt or hack other open-source software to run the system. Getting into the upper housing will be a trick, though... I didn't have much luck on this occasion. Finding time to realize the project is yet another challenge. 😉👍 --QM

That's a good question, and it's one that I don't have a good answer for... yet. I've been carrying my laptop and work gear in a GoPro Seeker backpack for the past few months, but I really don't like wearing backpacks if I can avoid it. Some people have attached milk crates to the factory rack with U-bolts and used those as general-purpose haulers. You can always put a top box on there (e.g. SHAD, Givi, etc), and those usually come with universal mounting plates or brackets that allow you to bolt the box (or carrier plate) to the rear rack. Personally, though, I don't care for the look of a top box on the Cub... it ruins the retro aesthetics of the bike. I am still hoping to find a good pannier solution that I can strap over the rear rack and then quickly remove them when I leave the bike. My first choice is the Timbuk2 Tandem Panniers, but I need to modify my side supports to work with that kit (you can see my brainstorming video on those here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y2jEmZycm7ytmqc ).

So I was in the Dollar store the other day and they have these small plastic milk crates (for a dollar!). It fits perfectly on the rack and doesn’t look obtrusive. I pinned it down with mini bungee cords that I bought a Walmart for five bucks. It doesn’t take away from the classy Cub design and the crate actually holds quite a bit of stuff when needed. The crate itself is about 1/2 the size of the normal milk crates found at Walmart, but as I said, it holds quite a bit without being an eye sore.

@@QuasiMotard at first I didn't understand why you replaced the fairing in the first place, I thought it was cracked but it seems it had only scratched on the edges. I would just leave it there and replace it when it cracks ore a part got missing lol

Поздравляем с приобретением Cub 50cc! Новый C125 - отличный байк, но пластик очень трудно удалить. У меня на Cub уже почти 5000 миль (8000 километров). Это отличное развлечение, и я не могу дождаться, чтобы отправиться в еще одну долгую поездку. Ваше здоровье! 👍 --QM

This POOR bike has seen more 'wear and usage' LOL...than if it was merely ridden for 10,000 miles...because of all the tear downs and parts flying off, by the owner, LOL! Poor bike... The bike is thinking it should have hidden in a corner in Thailand....

LOL! You think my Cub had it rough before? Wait until you see what torture it has seen lately! I just returned from a 9600+ mile trip around the USA while pulling a trailer behind it! Now that's some real work for a little 125 to endure. It never skipped a beat... absolutely zero mechanical issues or failures during an entire month of wide-open-throttle torture. I abused it through wind and rain, coast to coast, saw water on 3 coasts of the USA, crossed the Rocky Mountains, crossed the Continental Divide twice, the Mojave Desert, and nearly dropped it into the Grand Canyon. That's one tough little machine! 😉👍 --QM

@@QuasiMotard I actually want to get one, if not for the direct benefit of 125 MPG! Put a basket on it...do errands, go shopping, travel by county roads....and with gas already at $6.21 a gallon for regular...makes a lot of sense to me. Buy for $4,000.00 CDN, and will be paid off in no time. Problem...Honda is not selling them in Canada. Canadian dealers are pissed right off, at this decision. So are we prospective wanna-own's. Yeah, you can try to buy and import into Canada, but you can run into Warranty problems and such (I spec'ed that out). So...you're killing me with all these vids1 LOL. Perhaps Honda will have a change of heart....my other ride is a 2018 Yamaha Star Venture Trans Continental. This would be for sheer economy, to own.

Agreed! How are you getting along with your Cub, Sam? Any good trips or hammock hangs lately? I have another Super Cub camping trip video that I hope to have edited and uploaded this weekend. I was planning to head to Hutchinson, KS for a 1500-mile round-trip, but that trip didn't happen (details to follow). Instead, I decided to head out to Davy Crockett National Forest and hang out for a while over the Labor Day weekend. That was a ~400 mile trip, so now I have a clearer picture of what I'll need to add to my Cub for the Scooter Cannonball Run before next year: a wider seat (or seat cushion) and highway pegs. We'll see how that goes. 😉👍 --QM

QuasiMotard I am like you I’ve got four and five other bikes but the cub is the one I’ve been riding pretty much all summer. I saw the 2020s are going to be in red and it’s been announced they are definitely coming out with the trail… Believe me I am going to be first in line.
