honda cb125 k2

this is the cb125k2, probably the best 125cc road usable twin honda ever made! this combined the light weight of the cb125ss, with a five speed box and rev-counter. it still used the very competent cr93/cb93 based chassis.

Honda CB125S

The CB125S is a simple OHC thumper that was imported into the US from 1973 to 1985. It'll cruise at 55, and easily gets 100mpg at slower speeds. These bikes will last for many years so long as you're absolutely religious about changing the oil at least every 1000 miles- preferably every 700. The one weak point of the engine is the cam shaft bearings, which are simple journal bearings machined into the head. Once they wear, you can either have the heads machined to take roller bearings- a project that will cost several hundred dollars- or simply find a new head.

1977 honda cb125s

manufactured by honda from 1971-1975. it features an overhead camshaft (ohc) engine with a 9500 rpm redline and offers 100 mpg, quite astonishing for its period. it could comfortably maintain speeds of 55 mph and had a top speed of around 65 mph. its low weight coupled with the free revving engine allowed it to surpass many bigger, more unreliable british bikes in performance. the engine could last tens of thousands of miles with only minimal attention; however, the oil had to be changed regularly (700 miles) to prevent premature wear of the camshaft bearings. the ""s"" model was produced from 1971 to 1975 and was replaced in 1976 by the ""j"" model. the newer model sported a two piece head, 124cc displacement, and a larger carburettor, but it did not perform as well as the earlier models.
