Thanks for another very useful video. One point; the info on the swing arm (and the handbook) shows tyre pressures of 175 kPa (so just a tad over 25 psi) for the front and 225 kPa at the rear. Given the quite tiny contact area of the tyres I'd stick with the lower pressure at the front. I must admit that I did check the pressures just after I'd bought my bike from a main dealer. They were both significantly higher than 32 psi, cold! Can you have too much of a good thing?

Too much pressure isn't very good. If you go between 25 and 32 its absolutely fine and will vary on those ranges depending on preference, rider weight, temperature etc.

Nick Great video thanks. I have a 2021 Honda CB125F as in this video. The Engine Management light keeps coming on. Four times now. The dealer sais it has been overfilled with fuel and there is fuel residue in the Eco chamber and it will eventually dry out. I wanted to check the fault code for myself but this model seems to have changed the OBD connector. Do you know where the OBD connector is located and if a OBD2 scanner can be connected to this model. I have looked under the seat but cannot see the connector there as suggested by other YT videos.

That's strange, it shouldn't put the light on because of over filling. Sounds like the dealer could be making up excuses. Don't sound right to me. I don't know where the connector is and I've now sold this bike so can't check for you. Hope you get it sorted

For the Honda CB125F, the recommended tire pressure is 28 psi front and 29p psi back for the 128kg bike before 2021 and for the newer 2021 117kg model 25 psi front 33 psi back. That being said I think I will stick with something like 27-28 psi front and 30-32 psi back on my 2021 CB125F which seems to work for me.

One thing I learned from Honda is, if they tell you that the engine takes 800ml of oil, It will take 800ml of oil, so you can just pour 800ml and be done with it😊 BUT always check what's the oil quantity required in case you don't need or want to replace the oil filter. You can skip an oil filter change between services as these engines are very well made especially the ESP models.

Ni Nick, looking at the vid 8:06, it sort of appears in the quick flash we get that your distance between the chain centre pins is quite a bit less than 25mm after you tightened. is it ok to be a little on the tighter side? the owners manual seems to indicate a tolerance of 20-30mm, so presumably 25 is just the nominal value and a little either way is acceptable? also when checking the markings on both side 8.50, i measured the gap from what i can only describe as the nut collars straight edge to the edge of the cutout with a steel rule, and made sure both were equal (9.5mm) - would you say this is the way to double check proper alignment rather than just relying on 1/4 turn?, as when i did the adjustment the nut was a little loose and i think i moved it a tad more on one side. many thanks

Si no pesas mucho, haces mas ciudad, o carretera convencional con poca velocidad, la moto te consumira bastante menos. Si no entro a reserva, hago unos 430-450km, relleno el deposito con menos de 10 litros. La moto es una pluma, como si fuese bicicleta, muy manejable.

I have had my CB 125 F for over a week and will be getting to the 600 mile service shortly, I feel competent to do the service myself and have all the gear, just wondering how doing your own service affects the warranty if at all? As far as the bike goes, I am very pleased with it, the gear box has been a bit sticky from time to time but seems to be improving, I also have to be careful not to knock the headlight switch on when using the clutch, but other than that, so far so good. Power wise it seems ok even though I am on the heavier side, but then again I am not used to anything bigger and my cars over the years have usually been relatively low capacity. As somebody mentioned below, would be good to see a tutorial about doing the valve clearances! Thanks again for the tutorial very detailed!

it's better to use a carboard sheet to protect the rear tire when spraying chain lube, also your chain tension seems a bit too strong after adjustement, there is a play with rear suspension to account for when adjusting chain tension, before adjustement the chain tension seemed reasonably fine, too much chain tension and you wear chain, sprockets, and ball bearings faster, also front tire must be slightly less inflated than rear tire as marked on the sticker on the swingarm

Hello sir. Let me know please your recommendations about the replacement of the tyres of the CB125 F that i own from the last year. I am interesting to know if it is acceptable for the rear rim a tyre dimension 110/80/18 because i don't find in the market even the cst 100/80/18 that was the tyre of the Yamaha YS 125 . Lefteris. Athens Greece.

Nick, please give me some advice, if you have time, answer me please, does the honda cbf 125 have a fuel filter and if not, is it worth installing.

No, it doesn't have a fuel filter. There is a metal filter inside the tank to stop large debris. This isn't replaceable but will prevent anything harmful getting in. There is really no harm in installing an in-line filter, but not necessarily needed.

You can clean it with solvent if you wish, 300.miles isn't enough really for it to be replaced

They have an 8mm head but not sure on the thread. I no longer have this bike to check for you.

Can you please put a link for the little torque wrench you use in the most of the video?

Snap-On will always be my go to for professional use, but any other brand will be fine for the occasional service. Such as a silverline torque wrench will be OK.

fantastic video, was close to wasting £150 paying someone else to do this

So sorry, bud, but I never replaced mine. My wife passed her big test before the tyre wore out and we sold it.

Hello, greetings from Germany. Can you tell me which oil filter to buy for 2022 CBF 125 like yours. I can't find on the internet which oil filter fits me. From which other Honda motorcycle does that filter fit my CBF 125. Thank you
