    Reserve Fuel container options.

    I like this - especially for having something to grab with the knees. The bottles I use are a tad to low to do that with.

    Reserve Fuel container options.

    Same for me. I picked them up at a biking/hiking shop on sale but Amazon, REI, etc. has them too.

    Reserve Fuel container options.

    I have been watching this thread for a while. Someone else mentioned the MSR fuel cans. Two of these strapped to a center rack on the bike gave me plenty of range. I used rubber bicycle straps to hold them in place. My test run on the stock fuel tank got me 130+- miles before the bike started...

    Street use tire questions

    Yes, I swapped them. Like others told me, just notice the rotation of the tire when you swap. Just did a 4 day 1k+ mile trip on them and it is still working great. I’ll have to replace the front (originally the rear) soon but did it later then I will next time.

    What do you think of the bike now?

    I recently did my first multiday trip on the Honda and my overall experience was very positive! We all know it is not a highway/high speed bike but it does have it advantages over a midsize/large motorcycle. While on my trip and having time in my own mind, I started wondering what everyone...

    Front Brake Question

    During a ride, I dropped the bike. The rear brake lever was bent all the way back but no additional damages. After riding the bike for a little, I noticed the front and rear brake were spongy. Once I got home, I blead the system for both and the rear brake is better then before. However, the...

    Aftermarket brake pedal?

    Hate to revive an old thread but bent mind about 3 hours ago. Any information on what you replaced it with and how hard it is?

    Street use tire questions

    Planning on a “longer” trip - FL portion of the SEAT. The rear tire will maybe make it but it has enough tread on it to work well on the front. Another tire won’t get here in time so planning on swapping them today.

    Street use tire questions

    Welcome to 2022! A quick question: The front and rear stock tires are the same size. My original thought is to swap the tires front to rear, etc. to prolong life out of them. I have noticed the tread is the same but the tires state “front” and “rear” on the tire size wall (next to rotational...

    Tire Change - Seating the Bead

    I’m looking to do a camping trip off the CT125 and have a question regarding tire emergencies on the route. Is it possible to seat the bead of the tire with a small hand pump? On the bigger bike I wouldn’t even think of trying but with the smaller tires, I’m wondering if it’s possible. Trying...

    Greetings from Pensacola

    Greetings from Pensacola. I’m an owner of a C125 Trail. After riding a CT90 at my friend’s house, I was addicted. It was the most fun I’ve had going 30 MPH. My Super Tenere has been stuck in the shop (waiting on a gasket) and I was going through riding withdrawals. My wife gave me the okay to...

    ROTATING HANDLEBARS?

    Appreciate the thoughts. Haven’t tried it yet. Got a C90 in the back of a Subaru Outback and this is where the thought started.
