My new bike! (Help me ID please?)

[windows95]

Hello all!

New user here so first off a massive hello to you all!

I've just bought a "new" bike. It's a 1982 Honda CB125 Twin. It had a blowing exhaust which I've fixed with nice new gaskets and bolts/nuts.. I also gave it an oil change as well as new plugs. It runs really well for its age. Quite nippy too for a little 125 twin.

Can anyone help me ID the exact model of bike as I'm not too sure? Is it a CB125T? CB 125T Super dream? It's had some rather rubbish spray job at some point in its rather long life so its not in its original colours sadly... It did have the red HONDA badges on the cam covers which they have painted black. not sure if that means it's a super dream or not?

I know these bikes don't go for much but I only paid £50 for it I think its a pretty fair price really. I love honda's I've had a Honda XL125 Varadero a Honda CBR 125 and a Honda XLR125 all of them were fantastic bikes!

I currently own a Kymco Pulsar 125 (naked model) it's an ok bike but it rattles alot and isn't nice to ride. I love Honda's and I've always wanted a bike that is older than me so this was an ideal buy.

Looks like a Superdream to me, although I'm sure Teflon-Mike will be along to rant ad infinitum about it shortly. Brace yourself, that 'massive hello' of yours is about to get reciprocated in such a way that you won't be able to see straight for a week.

If it doesn't have an air filter in place that might be a problem i'd avoid using it until you get one sorted

[windows95]

I'd have a good look inside everything if you can a bit also as if it has been run without the filter god knows what craps been sucked inside

[windows95]

Yes very true I've had the carbs apart they are mint which is good.

There was also no debris inside the oil that came out of the bike which i would think is a positive sign?

Only thing with the oil - particularly if its been sat a while you'd ideally want to warm it right up before changing as it aids the movement of crud from the engine, but obviously running it long enough to warm it up would need the air filter in place etc first, so may be worth a second change - good to of at least cleared out the oil once before a good run in either case anyway.

Yeah, it's just a different range of the cb's, such as the cb400 four, super four.

Such as the 250, 500 and I think they did a 750 superdream.

I passed my test on a 125 superdream many years ago, I loved it.
I remember paying £295 for it back in 1985 and my bf back then made 2 wooden L plates, the front was fastened between the forks with jubilee clips & the back one was fastened below the number plate. I also wore a Freddie Spencer replica helmet Oh the memories
