CBR125R ✔✔ PROS AND CONS ✖✖

[@sillybobthornton1402]

i managed to get a 2013 cbr 125r with 3900 miles for 950! steal of the year.

[@dragoflamer786]

gary forsyth Damn that’s great

[@mihin4569]

No way for 950dollars?

[@maartenvancaesbroeck7777]

A good tip for when you can't seem to get into the right gear on standstill (with most bikes) is to press the shifter to where you want and then letting out the clutch carefully. The bike should always slip into the right gear then, whether it be first, second or any gear.

[@elliot438bcfcVTEC]

12 stone big guy!? The average man is 12 1/2 I think lol, i'm 17 stone and it still goes alright with me on it

[@MiniMotoVlog]

elliot438bcfc yea for the time I was 12 stone but fat and over weight. I'm 14 now and a lot fitter😂😂😂

[@anderzenn_official]

For the people that don't use stone: 12 stone = ~76 kg. (~168 lbs) 9 stone = ~57kg. (~126 lbs) ----- Now. Back to the topic of the video. I was planning on getting this bike when I get a 125 license. It changed through time due to the price, and I have to find something else, preferbly a supermoto :P But it will still be a while before I get a 125 license due to money. Again.

[@TwoGunz2008]

I have had this bike since July 2016 have to say its been very very fun. I am 5 ft 8 in height so I find it perfect. I never needed a gear indicator because I use my ears I learned that from games where the revs should be. I am 30 so started late on my cbr. I have done 4500 miles since July 2016. No problems with the bike at all break down wise the only thing that has done my head in is the false neutrals on this bike but you get used to that. I have used the standard tires and they have been fine heavy rain, ice, oil, anything I have had no problems, not that I lean to much but I do lean I also rev it right before the red line everywhere I go because well its a 125cc and I want to get somewhere. I find second and third are the most fun with the best pull. I am also 12.5 stone as well. So after all that I can recommend that this bike is lovely for beginners. Ps my new Cbr600RR arrives in 3 weeks can't wait. Happy biking guys and ladies. Good luck.

[@dappernat]

Alec Sheen Do you still get false neutrals on the 600rr? I had the 1100xx and I did haha.

[@NightElfMohawk]

any one get false neutrals? how do i stop it, my bike is getting a service the last guy was crap with oil and its old. but if that doesn't fix it what could be the issue? i shift hard. so i don't get it. ive been riding for 8 years, and never had that issue untill my new bike. kinda upsets me man i love her but i'm scared my dogs are fucked, its done 11000 miles, it does keep up with a yzf, they're pretty much on par, i find the cbf beats them of line and has same top speed when you tuck.

[@carfanatic1827]

I was insanely impressed with my stock tyres (about 3k miles) and no matter how aggressively in the dry and wet I rode, never did they give way; not even a slight hiccup and that was some pretty insane lean angles. I even had to ride home in a few inches of snow a few years ago and not once did it slip during acceleration, braking or cornering.

[@freddieparrydrums]

Yeah man, you can lean loads on these

[@JanMagnis]

I have a Honda CBR125 2007, and I don't have any problems with it :) I had a small problem where it wouldn't start, but it was because of me driving and stalling alot of times in the same place... But when I learnt to drive manual, I haven't had any problems!

[@doctorshorts9166]

As soon as you started talking about locking up your wheel, I thought about my first ride on my RS50. Coming home from a good day out, shifted down and the back wheel locked herself up. Absolutely shat myself, that and pulling an accidental wheelie whilst getting used to gears, have to be the up there on the most terrifying things that have happened to me. Anyway, nice video man. Earned a sub, looking forward to following your journey into the bike world

[@andrewtaylor2785]

12 stone isn't a lot unless your 4ft tall 😂 I've only just got one. Haven't gone over 40mph yet. I've got a scorpion exhaust system on it. What should the top speed be roughly?

[@paul-fk7de]

i am planning buying this bike from new but the only thing that concerns me is what you said about the gear change it falls out of second my last bike done it and it was a pain in the arse perhaps the 2017 model may be different ??

[@johnDoe-rk7se]

and I have some questions too can you compare it to the yamaha yzf 125 or the aprillia or is it far away? And I have the money to buy myself one new one and I have the chance to buy like the yamaha or the aprillia so what do you think is the better option to use?

[@voytazz]

What is your engine model inscribed on the bottom plate?

[@tbobex]

What bike insurance companies do you or anyone recommend I'm 17 and have passed my cbt but haven't done any other courses

[@yusufknowsit7674]

Come on lad! I need these videos to keep coming lol! Yes, im still here. Your the only KZbinr who still has a 125cc on CBT the rest upgrade which I don't like tbh, even though obviously 600ccs are monstrous. But most people don't have BIG bikes a lot of people still ride around with 125's and that's what I always like about the channel! Been here since the accident lol! anyways hope your doing well mate:)

[@4arni372]

Great video, not many have talked about the weight. What year is this model?

[@MiniMotoVlog]

thanks and Its a 2014 :)

[@heikolaur6093]

please mention the units you are using, bc it's rly rly confusing

[@oskararif6940]

I’ve recently bought it kinda bummed it doesn’t have a kill switch

[@johnDoe-rk7se]

Which bikes are faster because you said that it is very slow but 130km for a 125 is very good

[@baumstamm9082]

hes propably talking about 2 strokes...

[@doseofhonda6206]

Nice video man!

[@EnigmaGameMaster]

Lmao I weigh 240 pounds and I'm able to get it to 120-125 km/h in a straight line with no wind, 135-140 with a wind in the back. Going down a slope it can range from 135 to 155 (rpm limiter) km/h depending on the slope and the wind in my face. That's while laying down on the tank and resting my feet on the passenger pegs, though. I also lowered my front suspension and put cheap clip on handlebars on my bike, so the riding position is much more aggressive and I must admit that it takes corners way better now. Also, the standard tires are shit, change them as soon as you can, because at higher speeds, the tires will start shaking the bike and it makes you less stable and you lose speed.

[@luketaylor8688]

What insurance are u with ??

[@thetatu1685]

I just bought a 2010 cbr125 for 600€ in almost perfect condition and 37 000km ridden

[@bve7397]

Damm that's cheap af

[@batuhansftb4136]

I got a 2012 cbr125jc50 in red for 1150€ with 30 000km in good condition

[@jhz1050]

@@bve7397 got my aprilia rs4 125 2014 with 14k miles for £650

[@izaak4645]

Should I get a CBR125R or another bike? I dont mind about speed etc and im 5'7

[@MiniMotoVlog]

At your height that would be a great bike. Try to get a test ride to see yourself how you feel about it

[@izaak4645]

Oh ok cool, Thank you :) I have been watching your videos for about a year now, Keep it up bro :)

[@MiniMotoVlog]

Thanks mate, appreciate you sticking around! :)

[@relics2397]

How about 5'4?

[@Craziestbanana]

Bro I'm 6 ft 4 what 125ccs are big enough for meeee? I like the look of the; gilera sc, Honda nsr, derbi gpr, Yamaha dt which one of these is best?

[@capo8871]

Craziestbanana honda varadero

[@GetHyp3rrGaming]

im 100% stealing this video idea haha xD good video mate

[@drxpsaucx4157]

You can get these used with very little mileage currently looking at a 2015 with 2200 miles for £2300 of a dealer definitely the cheaper alt to the R125 buying one of those used is heartache so much to repair dealers hardly bother either

[@lylesargent4863]

Great review dude 👍🏼 but I've decided on getting a yzf r125 as my first

[@adrianpeters7615]

What insurance company are you with ??

[@reddits.stories234]

I've gotten 156 kmh on mine, with a full straight pipe🙌🏼

[@MJT-DA]

You can blam honda with the gearbox.. To keep the bike "cheap" they used the honda crf110 gearbox on a street bike

[@samcopsey9948]

Is your insurance full coverage?

[@MrLittledirector]

Ahahah!! 😂 "I wouldn't change it for anything... That is a total lie" Great video btw

[@MiniMotoVlog]

haha thanks dude :)

[@stugall]

Great video, seriously thinking of this for my first bike! Nice test ride! Would you change the tyres and exhaust? Cheers Stu great videos by the way, clear and interesting!!!!)

[@MiniMotoVlog]

Stuart Gallacher yes love the bike. I'm changing the exhaust in around 2 weeks and definitely change the tyres cos I just crashed it again about 2 hours ago 😂😂

[@motomc6962]

A was gonna buy this bike but am 6’6 and 13 stone 😂🤣

[@mattfarley6003]

I'm 6'6 at 21 stone and I have the bike. It gets up to 55 alright, anything after that it's a bit of a struggle I won't lie.

[@Commsfarage]

Speedo is out like on every single cbr

[@TOPFootball-tc2tp]

Will u make more 50cc videos -

[@MiniMotoVlog]

No because I sold it when I got my Cbr 2 years ago lol

[@dragoflamer786]

What year is that?

[@T_Quik]

must suck having that huge L on your bike

[@MJT-DA]

T Briggz ikr lol

[@PantsuGod]

it looks absolutely retarded lul

[@NextKnown]

British idiocy

[@2Barts1]

All the cons you mentioned are balls, exempt for the price, it is a 125 it is what it is don't expect any more

[@MiniMotoVlog]

1) Acceleration, I was simply stating that there is faster 125's available...... 2) Price, we agree on that 4k is alot for a 125..... 3)Fastest top end speed, there are faster 125s available without any modifications done to them 4) Upside down forks, personal preference tbh, as I said in the video 5) Seating position, saying that it is not the tallest one out there so do some research, or ride it, before you buy it 6) Showing the gears, as it's a learner bike, that would really help new riders 7) Tyres, I said were at 7,000+ miles and they're not good to ride in the rain.... 8) Exhaust, personal preference again really, would like it to sound abit more aggressive lol They're not balls, they're facts and my personal opinion I know it's a 125, so I don't expect anymore thank you very much.

[@niernguyen]

Have a '07!

[@dethreaper1173]

It's all cool and all, but you should've precise that it's 2011+ model, since they have 3 generations and this is the fattest and the largest one

[@Ongus98]

My cbr is faster than the yzf125 I've tried both out and prefer the cbr as its comfier handles better and just feel nicer

[@Ongus98]

I do have an exhaust and performance filter in however

[@deckedgorilla5422]

im 5 ft 10 and myn feels tiny

[@TwincamLover]

I got a 2010 125cc cbr for £1200 and it only has 5000 miles

[@shadowguidr7042]

"YASSS". I quoted from... someone... Anyway, "YASSS".

[@relics2397]

I personally think the 2007-10 looks better.

[@lolmaxcz9281]

same

[@moto_nerd5707]

The fuel consumption on a yzf is better. it can go 600km

[@cyberjack]

and if you over 5,10 your back will hammer on long rides as the bike tiny

[@deana6556]

What 125 will fit a 6ft 9 lol feels tiny

[@roblogic6823]

Honda varadero 125, seriously they're beauties for their age

[@motoben6111]
