Honda CG-125

My Honda CG125 is an 06 plate bought from new. This is the fully up to date model, so has great features such as electric start and front disc brake (more about these later in the review). This bike was made in Brazil rather than Japan. Overall the looks of the bike are a great improvement on previous CG125 designs, especially the smoother lines of the body panels and much larger fuel tank. The only other possible cosmetic improvement I would have liked would be alloy, instead of spoked, wheels (the spokes are a pain to clean!). In terms of general performance it's o.k. but not brilliant, but ... more

I have owned a 2002 honda cg 125 for over a year now and allthough im bored of it and cant wait to get a bigger bike I still think it is one incredible bike. Like I said ive owned this bike for over a year now and allthough it doesnt look as good as it did when I first got it (now has rust in some areas and a few scratches and dents here and there) it still runs perfectly sound and with no major problems. The Honda CG has a single cylinder 4 stroke engine with an output of about 11bhp, 5800rpm, allowing the bike to reach about 60mph +. The bike has a 5 speed gear box which if well maintained ... more

I suppose I'm cheating a little - I never actually owned one of these, but I had something remarkably similar - bearing in mind that this was 24 years ago I doubt it's really worthwhile asking for a new category to be added at this stage. The year was 1980 I was just 18, had been working most of the summer in John Menzies before starting college for the first time, and I was getting sick of having the wee-wee taken from me by my mates down the pub for riding my 49cc slo-ped. The 'cure' was, or so I thought, one of Mr. Honda's famous single cylinder overhead cam four strokes, and as just over ... more

I bought my 1992 registered CG-125 about 6mths ago after returning to motorcycles following a 13yr break... I'd never sat my test so had to complete my CBT (Compulsary Basic Training) first to get back on the road and then seek out a reliable, learner legal bike to commute to work on. Previously I'd owned a couple of other small Honda's and found them thoroughly reliable machines, the goal this time again was reliability and also economy for the daily round trip to the office. Value for money-wise I can't grumble one bit, the bike clears almost 90mpg urban, so it's saving me a fortune over the ... more

I have a Honda CG125, 2005 year, owned from new I could tell you how good the bike is, like nearly every review of the bike. But I do not wish to bore you with another identical review saying exactly the same. I was amazed to find no websites that support the Honda CG125, so I have created one. http://hondacg125.awardspace.com/ If you like my website, please rate this review as high as possible, since it's the best way for people to find my website using the search engines (else website will be hard to find). I could write a very large review of the bike, since I am an experienced rider, I ... more
