    Lost my Tool Kit

    Thanks. I was looking for that thread, but the search feature was not returning anything.

    Lost my Tool Kit

    The frustrating thing is, I read about this happening before I got my bike and made extra sure that it was closed and tight. I highly recommend using something extra to ensure it can’t open on its own. It seems like a poor design. At least if it opened from the bottom, when it popped open the...

    I love My Trail125, but I am still trying to like it.

    Yeah, I know. That is a big part of why I didn’t enjoy my Harley, or my KLR, or…. Eastern MA. The only thing worse than the weather is the drivers. My fond remembrance of riding is from when I lived in Las Vegas and you could ride year round on clean, open, flat roads. I need to move…

    Lost my Tool Kit

    I know it was secured. I know the latch was closed. I got to the inspection station today and it was gone. The mechanic’s opinion, with which I agree, is that it is probably a vibration issue. I have seen it posted here before (couldn’t find the thread). Make sure you secure your tool kit!

    I love My Trail125, but I am still trying to like it.

    My main issue the few times I have taken it out this spring is that I get little or no respect, room, or consideration. If I am honest, I don’t get much of those things in my truck and didn’t on my Harley either, but my truck would crush you, and my Harley would impale you. I am riding very...

    Price Check

    https://motohunt.com/motorcycles-for-sale?q=Honda+CT125&loc= There are 200+ on here now. For reference, when I got mine in November, there were 23 nationwide. Check your area, make some calls. Good hunting.

    Insurance Costs for Trail125?

    Y’all are making me (sad face).

    Price Check

    From the other thread, $5300 otd is pretty typical. I am on the lists for 3 dealerships within 300 miles of me and have not heard from any of them since early November, when I picked up my Trail and stopped calling every couple of weeks. Supply chain issues seem to be getting worse; Ford has...

    #006 700 mile update

    Nice! I am giving the Opmid a hard look. I love the bike so far but the stock display is pretty useless, unreadable with polarized sunglasses, and I just want a tachometer.

    Greetings from Hawaii

    Merry Christmas! I would love to ride a Trail around the Islands. Maui would be a blast!

    Who's got one on order? And more importantly, what news have you heard?

    Good info, thanks. It might be set that way intentionally. For my use, the toe shifter is so far down that I can’t get my toes under it, so that’s a problem for me. I have to use the heel shifter to upshot and the toe shifter to downshift, and neither are in the right spot for me.

    Who's got one on order? And more importantly, what news have you heard?

    Nice! I am only 9-1/2 and my heel hits the heel shifter a lot too. Adjusting it is on the short list of things to do. I don’t know what they were thinking with the stock position. If riding position was more forward like on a sport bike, maybe the stock shifter position would work, but with the...

    Opinion on used CT

    that is a really good analogy, and might cost me money. 🤣. When I did triathlons, and I was a relatively low rent triathlete, a $200 saddle, $150 for pedals, and $1,000+ wheels was not uncommon. And that was AFTER spending $3,000-$5,000 for the bike. (This was 15 years ago.) Similarly, when you...

    I’m so on the fence….

    My price in New England was about $5,300 all in as well. It seems pretty consistent, though I know people have gotten it for less. I have only taken mine out a few times because I work all the time and the balance of my activities and weather make it such that it isn’t the right tool for the...

    Rider apologizes for stupid questions

    Nice! I trust Summer mode includes tactical flip-flops…
