    Size of pre tapped holes on cargo area?

    In case someons comes to this site looking for the thread size of the hole like I did. It is a M6 x1.0 However if you purchase that size bolt it may not fit because the paint at the begining of the threads is thick. So it is best to retap the holes if you can. Do not cross thread them. mgg

    2023 Crash bar mounting

    I ordered the same bars from Beesdeels. I paid an extra $10 shipping to get them in 7 days and they came in 6. Thought I would review these engine guard/ crash bars for the 2023 Honda Trail 125. Note that it is V2. They make some that look very similar for the pre 2023 model called V1. Just...

    Anyone wire the tricago lights on their 2023 US Honda Trail 125?

    That was it. The diagram on the switch is completely wired wrong at least for the 2023 Trail 125. I'll post pictures later but everything including the switch is working properly now. For some reason I expected the switch to be wired correctly and could not get past what was happening until...

    Anyone wire the tricago lights on their 2023 US Honda Trail 125?

    Perfect! The voltage is about 12.3 when the igmition is switched on and 13.8 when I start the motor and I hooked up a light the red and black wires and it is nice and bright. So now I'm thinking it has to be the switch. So I am going to order another kit from Amazon. Use that switch out of it...

    Anyone wire the tricago lights on their 2023 US Honda Trail 125?

    I'll try that next but all the auxillary lights were working before I started this. Here is what I tried. 1. Took the orange plug out and made sure all the connections that should have continuity do. They did. 2. Took the white plug out and did the same thing. They did so no shorts or breaks in...

    Anyone wire the tricago lights on their 2023 US Honda Trail 125?

    First of all thanks for the reply. Yes I tested the lights after blowing the fuse with a 9 volt battery. And both lights are working fine. The lights have a red and a black wire comeing from them. I touched the red wire to the + terminal on the battery and the black wire to the - terminal and...

    Gear Indicator

    Sounds like they should have just added the gear indicator to the 23 Trail. It is already in the Super cub (same motor) so would not have been a big deal. Still I will just wait for the after market to catch up before I add one. It is only 4 gears so not like my 6 speed Indian Scout but I find...

    Wow! Thank you for that information. That really helps. I never thought about the engine change and the implications.

    Gear Indicator

    I think there are more differences between the JA55 and the JA65 than we were led to believe. I picked up my JA65 today. I added a usb port, re-routed the charger cord to come out by the back of the seat, and mounted a bar across the handel bars. I also mounted a phone holder but will probably...

    Gear Indicator

    Thanks for all the information. Let me see if I got this straight. The part you had to cut wires and resplice are wires that are not with the kit? They are wires that are already on the bike and go to the magnets that sense the gears? Is that correct?

    Gear Indicator

    Wow! That is kinda crazy. I saw someone on the internet talking about how you can shift from 4th to neutral as coming to a stop and thought that was so cool for stop signs and lights. That bums me a little that we can't do that. That opposite shifting is crazy. As far as I know all other US...

    Gear Indicator

    What do you mean the overseas bikes shift the opposite way. Our bikes should shift toe down to downshift and heal down to upshift. So their's shift toe down to upshirt and heal down to downshift?

    Best source for aftermarket parts in USA?

    I'm in ths same boat as you. Picking up my TC 125 Saturday. I went to Amazon and typed accessories for the honda trail 125 and could not believe all the stuff that came up. So far I have purchased a usb port, handelbar mount for cell phone and camera (22mm bar that goes between the handlebars) ...

    Opmid speedometer/multimeter

    All I really need is a gear indicator. But the Tekegawa in Baytowns post looks awsome. And it looks like they make one for the 2023. If I dedide to go this route this is the one I would likely get. https://japan.webike.net/products/24622331.html

    Gear Indicator

    That Takegawa does look nice and I thought I might purchase it, even though I did not want to spend or do that much. Now I don't know if that will even work on the 2023. Edit: I just looked at Takegawa's website and they have a model for the JA65 which is the 2023. Do I bite the bullet?

    Gear Indicator

    This has happened to me a couple times but mostly if I have to make a quick stop because a light turns yellow/red just before I get there and I've been crusing for a while. I forget to down shift because I am so use to riding twist and go scooters which I owned for about 15 years before I...

    @dmonkey Thanks this looks like the way to go.

    Opmid speedometer/multimeter

    Has anyone put one of these on the 2023. I understand the engine has changed to the one used on the Super Cub in 2023 but not sure. I just purchased one but will not be picking it up until next week. mgg
