Ride with Warro

Күн бұрын

Are you curious how the little Honda CB125F performs on dirt? Well look no further and check out my intensive dirt road ride clip on this little monster of a bike.
travelling over 50 klm in one hit in some very rough and tuffed country deep in the Australian bush.
plus if you want to see it climb good hills-this is the channel to watch my no hold bars and straight to the dirt on this near new low klm set of wheels.

Very excellent footage of everything - nature, bike ride and conditions, along with informative commentary. You essentially brought us there along with you. Well done mate. As for the CB very very impressed. It did phenomenal considering the adverse terrain and incline. Also another very noteworthy thing is you were riding it single handed mostly ✋! That coupled with the jacked up road conditions proves this bike is very worthy and beyond user friendly.

yeah your right i did have issues trying to hold that cheap ebay mount still and that was its first outing and the last. after i got home i ordered the gopro version. tripple the price so will see how it performs. really interesting track that one. i wouldnt ride it on the scooter thats for sure. not worth spending $10k on a scooter to punish it for very little view content...lol apart from thatr all is good and i will battle on...lol all the best!

Excellent video Warro. I love the CB125F a light, manageable, low consumption and very reliable motorcycle that I have had many times in mind to buy. At the moment I continue with the Classic 350 and the Scrambler 900. I love the vastness of the Australian landscapes. Greetings from Spain!

thanks. well the classic 350 is a much better feel good bike to ride but virtually double the price. the big plus on this is its the cheapest honda here and will still go on an adventure ride at a very cheap cost. not sure on fuel consumption as ive been moving it along but i have enjoyed the ride experience on it. that area im in would be a very very small portion of the ride areas here so plenty of places to go bush.

Really enjoyed this. Maybe you don't need a AUD$20,000 Enduro to detour from the bitumen in Australia. I would be interested in further updates as to it's longevity, (engine and suspension particularly). I also appreciate that you state "riding to the conditions" for a very inexpensive, low powered, road commuter. Thank you for taking the time to document your experiences with this particular bike.

What a good bike. For the money, what a FANTASTIC bike ! In the UK we do not get the chain enclosure (looks like Brexit is not our only stupid decision). Fit it with a top box & panniers and you would have a go-anywhere practical machine. For the money, this is probably the nearest you can get to the old CZ/MZ 250s the '70s + '80s. The only difference is that your bike is far easier to start, can actually idle, and it is way, way, WAY more fuel efficient. 👍💯

must admit i enjoyed that run in the scrub and it may surprise some how a little 125cc town commuter would handle a really bad road and steep hill climb thrown in. i think lots of people underestimate small cheap bikes but if one rides to conditions and doesn't try to do anything too silly - big surprises. good price too. fuel injected plus 5 speed box with clutch. easy to toss around and runs well at 50/55 and even hit 60 mph so overall a good day on it for me might even take it out on a camp out trip too...lol all the best!

MZ 250s vs. CB125F is price tags aside apples & oranges. The 250s loved to run, guzzled, bitched and fell apart. East German literature did explicitly NOT recommend them for the daily commute. They offered a 125/150ccm series for that purpose too.

Hello Warro Thanks for the feedback about the Trail 125 seat. Really good production quality here; great work! Very nice scenery; it is definitely about the ride rather than how fast one can get there. Those rough bits look to be a challenge for sure; the CB125F seems to handle it well. How would you compare overall performance of the CB125F to the CT125? Love your work! Thank you and keep it up. Cheers!

its a dangerous thing for me sub wise when i compare bikes but i have owned 2 ct125's this F would easily outperform a ct in all areas. ride quality /handling/performace etc it will run at 80 or 90 kph and up to 100 kph and very nimble and stable on the road. its a really good cheap package. where its ahead of the ct125 is one the price and the new 125cc motor with oil filter and 5 speed box. it does everything well but one. it doesnt look as good as the CT125...lol the CT is a great looking ride indeed....expressed in one word...FUN the F looks more boring or just another new bike. if they bought out the ct125 with this motor and 5 speed box with a clutch i'd buy another one. this would run a bit quicker stock than when i modded my ct125's with the 13t front sprocket. good to hear you also liked the ride out. pretty rough country to take a near new bike even a cheap one but that last hill climb was a doozey...lol

Hi Warro. Another great video. Could you advise me please. I live in Perth and have recently bought a 350 reborn. I love the bike and would like to ride on some of the gravel roads out here but am a little nervous. Are you happy with the classic 350 on the dirt ? Are the standard tyres OK ? And should I put a sump guard on first ? Do you take any emergency warning device in case you get into trouble ? I have loads of questions which won't fit in here. Is there any chance of you doing a video about the subject. A beginners guide kind of thing ? Keep up the great work man. Cheers.

providing its dirt track your riding and not sand as i have no sand areas where i live stock will be fine. these 350's are ultra reliable so you can head off with no issues to think of. not the case if it was a 500 as ive had many and have no faith in those. if anything maybe a sump guard would be handy plus fit a set of used 500 rear shock as they handle the rough stuff better with those. i sometimes take a phone but i did put slime in both tyres on the halcyon grey 350 but apart from that nothing else. just remember the dirt riding is fine providing you dont try and ride it like a duel purpose dirt bike -that would be asking for issues.

@ridewithwarro4983 Thanks for the advice. It will be nothing extreme. Just the occasional dirt road to get me to the next sealed road. No sand, I can assure you. I think I would be happier with a sump guard. By the way. I commented a few weeks ago about the Indian panniers and frame. I bought the Indian ones. I had a drama getting them but when they came they were fine. Very pleased. Thanks again for the advice.

Can't get the CB125 here in the US. But, we are going to get the XR150 starting this year. It's not fuel injected, like the Navi. So, which bike would you prefer for the off road track you just did, the lightness of the CB125, or the low torqued 350 Classic?
@ridewithwarro
@ridewithwarro Жыл бұрын
i think id go the cb125 as its almost half the weight. although the 350 rode the bumps much better. saying that though i am running 500 shocks on its rear. seeing i ride by myself and some areas are remote i guess i could take more risks on the 125 as if it fell over i could easily lift it up and ride on. if say the 350 fell over especially on that last hill - id be in a fair bit of trouble there. which one would i prefer outright. the 350 classic is easily the best bike-good looks and feel good moment and your riding a time warp. easily my favourite bike to ride and own. far better than the 500 and much more reliable too.

Good video Warro, some pretty country down there. I'm a CT fan but the price tag stopped me from buying one, this little CB125F seems better value. I live near a creek & had a red bellied black & a couple of brown snakes in my garden a few weeks back. The council regularly puts down 1080 baits in my area too, farmers are losing stock to wild dogs.

the ct125 is a much better classic looking bike than one of these F models . although i had 2 ct125's there biggest problem to me was their lack of power and no clutch. this is why i think this would outdo the ct125 at half the price plus it has a 5 speed box too. much more comfortable ride too. was on it on this ride for a bit over 4 hours in total dont like snakes at the best of times so really try to avoid them. years back you'd go out of your way to do them in but not the case today. all the best

In my country CB125F costs 3100euros, I see that in Australia it costs (converted from $) 3200euros. But in my country average monthly neto salary is 1400euros and in Australia I presume it is more than triple?

yeah i think your pretty well on target there or close to it. either way its a pretty good little bike. strange how they market it for sale. here for example the honda ct125 trail cost double the price of the bike in thailand. my thoughts there this cb125f is a better buy and goes better than the trail too for half the money

I am thinking of buying one, maybe tomorrow, to do similar off road trips in New Zealand. Do you have any problems braking on steep loose downhill sections with the front and back brake NOT working independently but together? Thanks.

out on the open road i had no issues on dirt plus the bike is easy to manage but i dont ride it hard either. plus in very steep country and in my history 2 weeks back its in extremely steep country i just put my feet down and walked it along. hill was that steep it wouldnt matter what bike you were on. luck played a bit there. one bad move and on your tail for sure. some-one mentioned smaller front sprocket for netter hillclimbing too. good little bike regardless. pretty happy with it

@@ridewithwarro Thanks. Do you mean walking it along, by sitting on it with legs down, or walking beside it braking. Just watching another of your videos. I have similar plans for over the ditch in NZ. I was surprised to find anyone doing similar trips. My thinking was the same as yours, I think. Low cost adventures and not so financially painful if I drop it. And a way in retirement to get back into riding. I have subscribed, so look forward to seeing more trips.

@@RogerBays yeah walking whilesitting on it.but take into account that was the steepest hill and worse conditions id ever been on. i will get you that clip. plus i went back 3 weeks later on the enfield and it was highly risky ride on it. track was far worse and it weighs 80 kgs more. you can go a lot of places on this cb125f if you resept its only 10 hp and a bit slow on the hills. apart from that its a very good little ride indeed

It must feel gutless after an Enfield J series motor. I still fancy a Hunter 350, but the wee Honda is supposed to do more than twice the mpg. Riding for "fun" up here in Scandinavia is getting costly, only option is for a more economical bike. I dont want to become another "ride a bike for 1 month in the summer" owner.

well there is another option for you a suzuki vstrom 250 sx. i have one of those and it would easily beat a 350 j series motor....and do it effortlessly too. top apeed 150 kph -cruise at 120 kph and much cheaper to buy too. my review is in my history

@@ridewithwarro Im still running a 42yr old XL250S. Its happy at 100kph and will do 130kph downhill with wind, and still gets 90mpg. It does have shit 6v headlight though. Someone offered a swap with a Himalayan a few years back, but no real advantage over the old bike, except for the headlight.....and much heavier.

Own the 125f for my son. Its a great bike! Love ist really. 2 liters per 100 km with two persons (82 kg + 50kg) and medium uphill is realistic and proved. Yesterday i rode the Hunter 350 and i cant stop smiling! The sound is overwhelming and velocity is 1,5x better. I warnt both! And …. The Interceptor 650. because of velocity. My wife will killing me. So i have to make a decission.
