    13T sprocket for JA65

    I added a 13 tooth to my 2023 JA65 after putting Shinko 241's on. I have a hill I commute on that required using 1st gear on and now it is ok in 2nd. My top speed hasn't gone down, possibly a little faster as it can rev out to the power peak. No regrets. Rick

    Can you verify the engine sound?

    Something that happens to me is that when I am standing on the bike I slightly activate the kick start and it makes a noise. I haven't been able to hear your video and is of no use to you if you are not on the bike if the noise is happening. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Can you commute on a Trail?

    I have a 10-ish km ride to work. I take a hilly route to avoid slow traffic. Quite steep in one or two places. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    I found the heel shifter annoying so I cut it off !!

    In Praise of the LED Headlight (Not!)

    I have added some led lights mostly as daylight riding lights but they will also light up the road at night. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    The New Zealand 2023 JA65 is the same. Ok if this is your only bike but it certainly messes with my head when swapping between bikes. I was wondering if getting a USA gear drum would solve the issue. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    2023 Trail 125

    Holy shit. We pay $6495 New Zealand dollars here. Your pricing is diabolical. Equivalent NZD converted from your USD price would be $10900. Wow. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Gear-changing technique?

    Bugger i would prefer the USA shift pattern. Surely it should be easy enough to swap over internally with a new part from US market bike.

    Gear-changing technique?

    Ok I have an interesting question. Everybody here talks about using the heel shifter to go from say 2 to 3 to 4. On my 2023 CT the shift pattern is completely reversed. IE. N to 1 push down on the toe shift like a normal bike, but then 2 to 3 is another push on the toe shifter. Has Honda...

    The dealers get them from Blue Wing Honda who are the official importers. It did come with lots of documents in Thai so it’s probably from Thailand Honda factory.
