    Tire PSI - what are you running?

    I run what the book says, since I'm still on stock tires: 25psi front 33psi rear. I check once a month and feel/look how solid they are before every trip. Over-pressurizing leads to premature wear and potential tube failure, after all.

    Best non-BBK power mods?

    I was thinking of getting a more free-flowing exhaust with the SP TAKEGAWA SPORTS stock-like exhaust, but unsure if I should get the PCX150 injector or not. Any input would be helpful, I'm not really experienced in this kind of stuff. The bike will keep its stock head, cam, and TB for the...

    Best non-BBK power mods?

    I wonder how the PCX150 functions when it is with the caty still installed, has anyone tested it?

    Making the best out of being a dumb-dumb

    I used some high-temp flat black paint that the NAPA store I work for had, it's called VHT "Flameproof" paint: https://www.vhtpaint.com/high-heat/vht-flameproof-coating. It was on-hand and cheap (job benefits, hehe) so I went with it. I also have experience putting paint on as I used to work for...

    Zeta wind-screen

    I have the Large version of the Zeta screen, and I quite like it! However, is is still too short even for my 5'9" stature to direct the wind over me, but does great for body blocking the wind and keeping spring bugs that have come out so far off my helmet visor. Currently trying out a clip-on...

    Making the best out of being a dumb-dumb

    I wasn't on the bike when it happened, I was putting my old man's vehicle back in the garage when the kickstand on the slope of the concrete slab in front of the garage caused the almost standing straight-up bike to start creeping forward while it was running. It then fell over. All because I...

    Making the best out of being a dumb-dumb

    So on monday, I dropped my bike on the right side, on rough concrete. Bending the exhaust heat shield towards the back and bending the right side pedal where the hole for the rubber pad's bolt goes through. In lieu of this i (lazily) bent the exhaust guard out a little and took a scotch pad to...

    Suggest a forum where members just can post pics of their Trail 125

    Currently waiting out the snow that fell this week, and all the road salt that came with it to wash away... So I decided to rotate the top box 180° and made it more rigid in the process, just need a good way of keeping the mat on the sides of the box from flapping around without it looking too...

    Spark Arrester

    wait, so carbon buildup in an engine just doesn't happen anymore since fuel injectors were invented? Cus that's what I am getting from that. What I am saying it that the natural carbon buildup inside any engine can flake off and is often very, very hot and start smouldering if not caught and/or...

    Spark Arrester

    Generally the reason for the spark arrestor nowadays isn't because of sparks from bad fuel anymore, but rather heated carbon buildup inside the exhaust pipe breaking off and breaking those deposits up as they fly through the spark arrestor. Even if you don't ride in a forest, or even outside the...

    My Opinion on the 2023 stock sprocket setup... Or maybe why I was too hasty on buying the 13T sprocket.

    Yeah I too like to not having WOT when running this bike. 35-42mph (on the spedo) is the optimal range in 4th when riding on roads. If people want to pass I try to accommodate as much as possible!

    My Opinion on the 2023 stock sprocket setup... Or maybe why I was too hasty on buying the 13T sprocket.

    DISCLAIMER: This is in no way a definite say-all. There are probably many factors that probably affected my experience. Hey all, I thought I'd share my experience with the using a 14T-38T and 13T-38T setups, and why I may have been a bit too rash in changing it over to the 13T-38T setup. So...

    This is my ,"Red Rider"!

    I do love my 13T sprocket on my bike, but I think I'm gonna try the 14T sprocket again to see how it fares now that the engine is more-or-less broken in at 1100 miles. Gotta keep experimenting!

    FIRST DAY WITH NEW 2023 TRIAL

    It's mostly due to preference, and that's fine imo. You sacrifice a reason what makes the trail a trail, but you end up with something that you want, which is what the trail is also for.. I personally love the heel-toe shifter, and find it much more "natural" than just the toe shifter. I wonder...

    TOP SPEED

    I think this is what Honda was thinking about when they decided to make the new Trail/Hunter CUB (aside from the nostalgia factor). It's a secondary bike, to be the unimpressive but really fun bike to bum around on in the middle of nowhere, locally or not. You're supposed to take the...

    Trail or Grom

    I almost dropped my CRF250L last year when I was on a steep incline (coming out of a boat landing exit) because I wanted to put both feet down out of instinct since It's what I am used to. Never doing that again!

    TOP SPEED

    Has anyone even done a reflash/replacement of the ECM? It would be nice to get a bit more oomph out of the bike........ 🤔

    Winter Riding in the Midwest & Mods

    Can't wait to see it on the bike! Hope you post a pic with you on it, I can't get a sense of scale the windshield is... It looks like the regular one due to camera angle shenanigans :unsure:
