I think given two color choices I would still take Red. It is what I remember and what I desired for more than 50 years. I will proudly
“Ride Red”
Those other colors all look great but the red looks far better than the photos show. I certainly wouldn't pass on a deal because of the color on the CT125, they all look good.

Earlier today I read a review about the updated Trail which states Green will be the only color-option in the US.

I like the red, but I did talk with a Honda dealership owner yesterday, he said he can take a down payment on the first Monday in May. I’m buying one. Im a veteran, green is my favorite color. Ill use my 2022 for groceries running the stock tires and the 241s I ordered will be mounted on the 2023. It will be my designated trail bike. The red 125 is definitely a keeper and a really nice looking bike. Everyday I step into the garage, I see that red machine and think, thats a nice looking bike, I mean really nice looking bike!

I thought about buying 2 2023s but I can't get my wife to agree to that even if one would be 'hers'

Ask for forgiveness, not permission, I wouldn't own much without that outlook. She will like it, my wife loves hers.

That is a great looking jerk, hambone. How about details in a new thread?
Are you referring to the jeep?? Military vehicles are my other hobby, took 10 years to collect all the correct parts for the ambulance build, I have the whole 2 year resto. documented.

Hello! Just Joined Today Your Forum. Thanks for having me!
Tomorrows a BIG Day. I'm taking delivery of my 2023 Trail 125. I contacted the Dealer in April (walk-in) met the sales
manager and told him I wanted a '23 Model. Even though the dealership had two 2022 model Trail 125's on the floor.
My reasons for wanting the '23 was the new design engine and the green pearl paint. I currently own a 2019 Monkey
w/ABS, Red color. I live near Houston TX.
I got the call from the dealer last saturday they had just received a 2023 Trail 125. Price was non-negotiable $5500 OTD.
Life is short, You know the rest......

From https://hondanews.com/en-US/powersp...f16809c-2023-honda-trail125-features-benefits


For 2023, the Trail125 gets the 124cc air-cooled, two-valve, overhead-camshaft, four-stroke, single-cylinder engine that the Super Cub received in 2022. Efficient, quiet, fuel-efficient and durable, the engine combines the bottom end (with redesigned crankcases) from the Japanese-market C110 with the SOHC, two-valve top end of the Grom. The engine produces useable, enjoyable power all the way through the rev range, while still offering impressive fuel economy.

Compared to its predecessor, the 2023 Trail125 is more undersquare, with a 50.0mm bore and a 63.1mm stroke, and compression ratio is 10.0:1.

Don't forget the oil filter!

Well shoot.... Hopefully my 21 engine will last a year or two..
I'm assuming, it has the spinner oil cleaner.
