If it's for your missus, then at least you might not be tempted to mess about with it too much!
My mate had one of these back when we were 17, and no 125's other than trail bikes like the DT/KMX etc could do such easy long power wheelies, and some like the TZR125R were just shit in comparison for mono wheel action!
I couldn't buy a 100cc commuter stroker and be able to stop myself tuning and fitting big carbs and pipes etc, so with that in mind if I had to get a sensible little town bike, it would have to be another CG125, but a KH125 in green/white with cast wheels, and plenty of tuning would be my ideal machine I reckon. |

Looks nice.
No rear indicators? Or my bad eyesight?
Edit: Oh wait, I see them now at the end of that bar at the end. What an unusual place to put indicators. |

Its an odd one, it's got some form of rack on it - think givi wingrack 1980's style, it relocates the indicators out.
Regarding tuning, i'll leave this here...
https://nmrm.com.au/displays/our-bikes/107-honda-h100-bucket-racer.html
Quote: | Around 1983 a group of motorcycle racers decided to devise a formula that would offer the cheapest form of racing. They called it Buckets because the bikes used were little more than buckets of junk in their original conception. The rules called for a maximum capacity for four strokes of 150cc and 110cc for two strokes. With sales of small capacity road bikes very low in Australia much of the tackle was sourced from countries like Malaysia and Indonesia. Regulations were framed to keep out racing bikes such as 85cc and 125cc moto-crossers. In the mid '90s Buckets attracted up to 60 competitors in Amateur and Pro Classes based on rider experience and ability. Gradually the accepted set up in the class came to be the Honda H100 a model sold only in Asia. The engine responded well to tuning and the spine-type chassis was light and handled reasonably well. In the past two decades Buckets have provided hundreds of riders with a cheap means to get on the track with negligible maintenance costs. This bike is a 1984 Honda H100 that was bought $600 in 2001 in fairly standard trim. Since then the power output has almost doubled to 20 hp through mods such as a 32mm Mikuni carburettor, a reed induction block from a Honda CR125 moto-crosser and a Yamaha YZ80 ignition system – enough to propel the bike beyond 160 kph at Eastern Creek. Michael Crombley raced the H100 for three seasons finishing second in class in the NSW titles in 2002. Now that his racing days are over, Michael has donated the bike to the Museum complete with a set of instructions on how to store, prepare and run the machine. The bike has been kindly donated to the Museum by Michael Crombley. |
Tl;dr - there's scope for improvement, but we'll just wait till she's got her own bike before that
Can anyone shed light on the type of headlamp bulb fitted & where to get one? 6v, 25/25W three lug - however this wont fit as it doesnt slot through the hole;

I cant find anything to suit in any of our 6v bulb boxes. It's like a micro pre focus, but with a three lug base on it. Proper odd thing. ____________________ Please be aware that the above post may be full of complete nonsense.
