Is the Honda XR125 a good bike for town commuting? Relaxing POV ride through town.

So shiny and new. Truly a great economical bike perfect when fuel is so expensive. Loves 99 octane gas with the mods on mine. So much fun. Scottish winter riding means lots of cleaning but worth it. Our roads are full of holes and the XR just eats them up no problem.

[@taigedavies325]

Thanks for the comment Peter. It truly is a fun bike to ride. What mods have you made to your bike and were they worth it?

Ive been looking at an XR125/ XT125 as a commuter for work and back. I have a full licence and a 600cc sports bike but these are so good on fuel theyre worth using for work and back! My civic Type R guzzles too much fuel for my work commute and these run off fumes!

[@callmemayhem6366]

Thinking this would be a good starter/commuter bike for me. lightweight, good gas milage, reliability, most important of course, wheelies :D

[@taigedavies325]

Totally agree! Such a fun bike to learn on

[@ekipito]

Honda XR 125 is the best bike ever. Cheap and easy to maintain, unbreakable, etc etc etc

Una moto bárbara la XR 125-L. Tiene un anar hermoso -!!! Un espectáculo. Es una moto que no te va a dejar a pie. Muy noble, y tiene un motor, ha prueba 🧾 de balas. Saludos

[@marceloweber7753]

As a first motor bike is ok. Small engine but with great quality

[@taigedavies325]

It all depends what you are going to use the bike for. Otherwise I agree.

[@DrangeDragRacingTeam1967]

I love my XR. Good fuel milage, fast enough and cheap!

Hey man , I just bought a XR 125, and the steering seems to glide and almost “click” into place in the middle and then if I turn it more it “clicks” out of the middle, does your also do this? It’s a 2018 XR 125L

Hi, I'm hesitating out of getting a honda xr 125 or a yamaha dt 125. What would you recommend me? Thanks

[@ibk97]

Xr

[@arthurmorgan507]

Dt es 2t, no conviene por lo caro del mantenimiento y en un tiempo por las leyes para proteger al medio ambiente la sacarán de circulación (al menos en Colombia todas las 2t morirán en 2030)

Hey Taige. After 10 years I just bought an XR125 again. Had 2 about 10 years ago but sold them for study money. The one i just bought aint AS neat but shes decent. Do you ever go ride off the beaten track or know of great olaces to ride excl zone 7?

[@taigedavies325]

Hi Hugo. I don't really ride off-road as often as I would like to but when I do I absolutely love doing so on my XR125. It's such a capable bike and each and every time I go for a ride I come back with a smile on my face. Where about do you live? How do you find your XR performs off_road?

[@hugonell4210]

@@taigedavies325 i havent taken this one offroad yet, still need to get my learners again to be able to legaly ride it on road. But i used to explore the mountains with my friend in swellemdam with his bigboy 125 and it handled off-roading quite well (not being to harsh on it and not going balls to the wall obviously) im in claremont but will be moving to strand soon. Once i get my learners ill contact you, can meet up and plan a leke local adventure trip. Should be very fun ✌🏼

[@taigedavies325]
