Just spotted this-

https://bikes.honda.co.uk/motorcycles/range/125cc/cb125f-2015/overview.html

Didn't see it posted anywhere, but this could be the next CG125 if Honda have sorted out they're quality control problems!

I quite like it, reminds me of my old H100, which would be awesome for a work commuter. Notice they've returned to 18" rims too. I always hated the looks of the CBF125 with that huge front fairing thingy, but I think this looks right.

Could be, doesn't seem like it though. I assume that they're just chasing cheaper production, or have half a million or so sitting around unsold that they can ship to Europe.

Honda don't make small bikes for Europe. They make them for SE Asia and India, then ship a few of the spares over here.

They've been built to appeal to their core markets, not the few hundred a year that will end up in the UK

An unusual choice of 18 inch wheels. Might make hunting down tyres interesting.

I'm sure Guy Martin will be along soon to ride one around Bradford.

I don't quite get it. The CBR 125 has got 9.8kW and this has got ''only'' 7.8kW. 2kW is quite a lot at this figures.

I quite like the looks, I can imagine having one for commuting. Thumbs Up
