Honda CBR
125cc

Overall Rating:
Review
The CBR 125 is the option to go for if you're looking for a quick off the line introductory sports bike. It's a lot nippier than the other 125's out there and accelerates extremely well up to around 50mph. The acceleration after this is not great-it takes a fairly long while to get up to 60, and you feel as though it takes forever getting up to the top speed of around 70-80mph, this isn't particularly great when traffic around you is accelerating up to these speeds much faster than you and it can seem daunting, however it is only a 125, so I would expect this. The handling on this bike is brilliant its very easy to ride and takes corners like a dream. However if you really want to go for some heavy duty leaning on this bike I would recommend buying some thicker tyres as the standard ones are ridiculously skinny and any over lean will result in you coming off. The MPG for this bike is brilliant you can't fault it. A full tank will cost you £7-8, and this will last around 100-150 miles. Spare parts are readily available and fairly cheap as well. The overall looks of the bike are fantastic, it looks like a slimmed down version of its bigger brothers, and it works because its different to the other 125's most of which are naked bikes. The CBR's stand in their own league design wise. When you see one pass you can't help but admire it's beauty.
Overall the CBR is a smashing bike and you can't fault it for being a 125 that's what it was designed to be. It's a corker and you'd be wrong to opt against it for a learner bike.

Our CBR1100XX Super Blackbird.
In the best colour Red. Wow what a bike. Handles like a dream, superb cornering, fast on acceleration. Comfortable seats for long hauls. As much fun as one can get with their clothes on. S*x on 2 wheels.

The jelly mould!
Mine is now minus fairing lowers after rear end shunt, after tidying up the wiring I think it looks better.
Handles predictably, can easily get the pegs down without getting out of shape, Bridgestone Battlax 45s good for grip wet and dry, good wear rate.
Will do 140 mph on the clock, pulls from 40 mph in top but doesnt take off until 6000revs.Can be soft and a revvy screamer too.
Does 45mpg average, can do 60 mpg or 22mpg.
Quite comfy seat good riding position, screen is a bit low and wind buffets your head unless you tuck in a bit.
The handlebars are at a weird angle but can be turned round on the fork tops if locating pins are removed.
Turn the forks round to one side and turn the bar until you can get two fingers in between the bar grip and the side of the tank.
Brakes need regular cleaning/ taking off calipers.Be careful you dont damage the piston heat inserts when squeezing the pistons back in.
WHAT GOES WRONG.
Mechanicals
Its a Honda so not much, however mine has done 100,000mls.
The cam chain tensioner sticks, so a rattle when starting now doesnt disappear, get another.DONT remove the plungerfrom the tensioner as someone suggests!
I replaced the cam chain at 50/000 mls it was still only part worn.
The cam followers are located into the head with a ball socket providing movement by the cam lobe, if a tinkle/ rattle comes from the head even though the tappets have been done, look here.the loose bit can sometimes be peened/centre punched around to tighten it up.
Tappets, yes it doesnt use shims!! adjustment lasts ages, which is good as access under the frame rails is limited.
The rear wheel spindle needs greased, I dont use coppaslip, white waterproof lithium grease is good for all parts, including brake pistons.
Early disks with lots of holes in can crack between holes, later discs with less holes fit.
The rear cush drive rubbers get compressed and can easily be replaced or shimmed up with a suitable material, I used buisness cards!! they dont get wet.
The fairing mounts and locating tags are VERY easily damaged(this is a 20 year old bike!!)
Electricals
The 3 yellow wires from the offside genny casing connect to the voltage rectifier on the frame behind the carbs, the connector at the rear end of the tank on the frame can corrode and burn out the connector, sometimes causing the battery/ rectifier to take a huff.Get a new set of connectors and holder from Lucas agent or city electricals(car stuff)
The headlight bulb and the beam height adjuster(near side under the clocks by near side headlamp shell)are a pig to get to, it may be easier to take the clocks off (5 screws)and lay them over to the near side.
I tried relays and a 100w/80w bulb, but the high beam terminal kept melting!! so I changed back to 60/55 and found the beam much brighter than standard. two relays will fit by the fuseholder under the nearside front cockpit filler panel.See google for info or get fused relays from Halfords,with instructions, or, a lot cheaper, a Lucas agent.
To get the oil filter off you can hammer a screwdriver through the filter side to side at the front and lever round to get off...be sure to have a new filter ready.
The ignition sender in the near side engine casing can go, with no sparks the motor will not run and the unit will have to be replaced, second hand is cheaper.
Despite all the above I have found the bike very reliable, easy handling with enough zip above 6000rpm to keep up with newer bikes on "A"&"B" roads, however above 120 on motorways it shows its age.
A downside for a bike 21 years old is people say "it doesnt look that old" which shows what a ground breaking bike it was.
Parts are starting to get harder to get esp plastics.
Anyone looking for a classic ish jap will find a great allrounder/ second bike which is far from boring.

the cbr 1100 is a superb machine to ride only thing you need to do to them is add a double bubble screen as the original is a bit low and a rear hugger to keep the crap off the rear shock.
comfort wise for me it lets it'self down but apart fr
