D_Gray Posted February 1, 2023 Report Share Posted February 1, 2023 Just been on the new 2021 cb125f for about 5months, Make sure to keep the oil checked if you're running it +60mph maxing all the gears because the 125's seem to use up engine oil up much faster than the recommended service intervals. Also grease the rear break mechanism and chain tension adjustment screws because they corrode. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You get a lot more of them in the UK because everyone is stuck on the CBT single day training course license, because you don't have to pass a test.

Jaybird180 Posted February 2, 2023 Report Share Posted February 2, 2023 Nice bike! I am wondering: how many oil changes has it had? Some oil consumption is normal and expected, and I have no idea what the spec is but I don't see much consumption on the many Honda engines I've owned. Of course, if it needs oil, add oil. If its beyond 2-3 oil changes and the bike is still under warranty, I'd have the dealer look at the rings for peace of mind. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D_Gray Posted February 15, 2023 Report Share Posted February 15, 2023 My dealer us useless tbh, had the bike come back with a slack chain and they didn't even have another CST tyre for my squared off rear so I was on mixed tyres. Was a big mistake buying so new with such a cheap lower power motorcycle, should have just gone for one from the 2010's and spent the money on tool's. Fell off once cause the front wobbles on front break application even if you're really smooth on the breaks. Odd for such a low power motorcycle with low pressure breaks. My '06 cbf500 is much better on the breaks, maybe it's just the front forks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaybird180 Posted February 15, 2023 Report Share Posted February 15, 2023 Check the front end. Make sure the tire is balanced and mounted properly and the brake rotor is true. Also ensure the forks are at the same height. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
