Nice. I like the improved top end speed. In order to ride trails, you first have to get to the trails. This makes it a good back roads bike, which only adds to its utility.

Like you, I can't say I'd spend that much on a CT (unless I had unlimited funds lol) but I'd most definitely pimp this thing around town and love that there are people with deep pockets like this, that can build crazy bikes like this, so we can all see what's possible with next to no budget.

This build has remedied most every shortcoming most people cite on the stock CT125. It would be nice for Honda to produce a similarly equipped CT181 and sell it as a separate model. However, it would surely take the price up and out of the realm of “inexpensive fun”. People who have purchased the CT125 knew what they were getting and got what they wanted. I love my CT125 with all its shortcomings. It is so worth everything I paid and is exactly what it is supposed to be.

Unfortunately it never ran right again and ended up scrapped. I once stalled it in seat high water and it stared right back up and rode out. I have thought about that bike everyday since it was scrapped. Now I fight myself to not purchase the new ones but boy do I daydream. Now I'll be dreaming of riding a similar build, this bike is sick! I have to have one

Quiet, smooth, sweet little ride. I really think they nailed this bike. 55 on a highway is fast enough for this bike. It’s a trail bike!

Well, I did when I had the budget to do so but after starting this HondaPro Kevin stuff full time a couple of years ago, my buying / modifying cars and bikes has came to a stop. When the dealership I was at closed down in 2021, I was forced to sell my current at the time S2000, Type R and motorcycles to put some money in the bank as I tried to take this HPK stuff and run with it. The S2000 only had a few bolt-on goodies, nothing too crazy but here's an old video of her and me having a little fun in the parking lot at work lol: kzbin.info/www/bejne/d4anZJ5-nriSmJI I've got a bad addiction with Honda cars too, as if the mentions of the S2K and Type R didn't tell you that haha! That was my dream combo though and pinched myself every day when I had the choice to choose between driving one of those two every morning. I've tinkered with probably 30ish different Honda car platforms over the years with countless swapped and turbo steps etc. Fingers crossed I can get back on my feet soon and start playing around with stuff like I used to, this whole counting pennies stuff isn't that much fun lol! Aside from getting another S2000 back as they are hands down, the most fun car I've ever driven when it comes to the overall "experience", I've GOT to build another K20 EG or EK but go AWD this time around. ...and good eye on spotting that RFP1 in the background!

I thought about buying the Honda trail, but didn't because I didnt have a trail to ride it on & feel I would look more Mary Poppins-silly on the streets than when on my Grom (I feel like a giant on it). I love love love the orange color & everything was cool. I love & am all for a faster minibike-type ride esp 250-350cc types. I think, no offense to Honda or anyone, I would buy an e-bike before I would the trail unless they came stock with the 181 or a bit faster if doable. One of my all time favorite bikes is the suzuki DRZ 400 but could never get it cause the seat height is 36 inches. I am 5 7 +/- The DRZ rarely loses value, always sell when even used, if Honda could pull off a bike like this, that is not a dirt bike type (crf), you would never have them in stock imo. As always, thanks for the vlogs!

Thank you... I really appreciate the kind words as I've been trying my best to improve! Yeah buddy, she's got quite the price tag but epic builds - bring epic price tags lol with it being in the neighborhood of 5x the MSRP of a stock unit. It would be cool to see Honda tinker with throwing slightly larger engines in these minis as a lot of people love the styling but just can't get behind the whole 125 engine's power levels. Oh yeah, the DRZ is a classic and like you said - rarely loses their value as long as you get into them right but that seat height knocks out a lot of people, if you're not 6'+. Honda's "DRZ" in a way, here lately has been the CRF250L / CRF300L platform, with them not being a super aggressive off-road bike but more street oriented with a lower seat height and when it comes to bang for the buck - they're hard to beat. Thanks again for watching and hopping in the conversation too with such kind words, much appreciated bud ;)

Very nice, but how do all of these upgrades effect the fuel consumption? 🤔 How far can it now go on a tank if ridden with enthusiasm 😁 but also how about a long ride comparison against a new ct125 and an old c110. 👍 👍

That is a beautiful bike! I've had a few bikes over the years and just got rid of my last one. I'm a bit older now and wasn't riding much anyways. A bike like this has me really interested though. I'd love to have an around town bike, and after watching a few videos, figure this would even be OK with my 6'2" height. The only downfall to this bike in its stock form is top speed. I'm about 200 lbs, and there is a place I go to regularly that has a 55 MPH minimum speed limit for about 3 miles, and a "regular" 55 MPH speed limit for about 15 miles. I love the idea of a 70 MPH top speed with an easy cruising speed of 55. For the price, the stock CT125 seems great, and there is a detour I can take to avoid the interstate. Hmmm.

Sweet. I love mine but the headlight sucks. I put aftermarket driving lights on and they were great but stopped working. I’m wondering how good that aftermarket headlight is. I see them online but they want over $300 bucks for it

The looks great and performs no doubt. But the very big thing that you yourself mentioned in your intro was that wasn't cheap. I'd hate to guess the all in money spend could be, but might be better spent on some other machine. Because I think the price is one of the at the top of the list reason's to look and buy this little red machine. The reason it has inexpensive parts on this machine is because the machine is at the inexpensive price point.

I'm a diehard Harley guy! But! I'd absolutely love one of these little dudes to tool around, back and forth, the beach. You could literally take it on the beach and park it next to your fishing cart, and no one would say a word. Just don't drive it on the beach. The only thing I'd change that haven't been done in this vedio is the color. Orange and black are Harley Davidson colors. I already have two of those. So! Let's show it in black, red, or dark metallic gray. Can't say I actually need one, but I'm single, and therefore, I can spend my money ANY way I want. Look out Honda, here I come.
