Ahhh man this brings back such good memories, the XR125 was my first bike when I was about 18, I'm now 29 and miss the adventures I had on it!

As a beginner rider I rode the slightly bigger engined XR150 around northern Vietnam. Absolutely brilliant machine. Handled everything very well.

It’s so cool seeing someone ride the bike I want around the roads I know! I turn 17 in less than a month so I’ve been scouring eBay relentlessly for this bike! Thank you for the video!

Great vid! thanks for the review of the bike. I live just below the hill you started on (Gilwern Hill) - quite a surprise when I stumbled on your vid! Great to see some of the local scenery. Keep posting, very enjoyable vid. All the best and stay safe.

I've just bought a XR125 2004... Will be my project bike for this summer! Keep us posted for future updates please 👍🏻

I got one when I first start riding. I got 50mph down hill with wind behind me. I commuted to work on it. Did so many miles over 12 months. It just spent more time in the garage under warranty than myself riding. Good luck with test and welcome to the family. PS Honda hornet 650 or Suzuki gsx650f are good first big capacity bikes.

Actually this bike isn't powerful, it's slow, very basic (you can't see how much fuel you have) tires of this size made for off road and on road aren't easy to find, front light is terrible, the seat is actually not that high, if you're tall that's not gonna be easy for your back, BUUUUT....... This is the best bike ever. That was my first motorcycle, I had so much fun on it, in my eyes it was a technological miracle that this little thing could carry me anywhere I wanted for so cheap. I had bought it for 800 euros, 30 000 kilometers, it was a good deal. I have so many good memories with that bike that I just had to buy it again, which I did recently. Sadly, now that I have gotten used of much bigger bikes, now that I have been spoiled, this little one feels boring. I can't find the same vibe again, but still I'm very happy to have it for short rides... and I forgot to say this bike is unbelievably reliable. It's just incredible. It can run even with no oil or very few.

I Have a honda xr 125 also. I Have traveled far on the road also used off road. I love it. Great bike.

I just put a deposit on a new '22 red XR150L today. Not my first bike, but it's my first Philippines motorcycle. I'm 6'3" and I fit great. Good price ($1820 USD), big 12L tank, rear rack, good enough suspension for the bad roads here, wide comfortable seat. I like that I'm not passing myself every few seconds, most bikes are scooters and step throughs here. I get it next week..

Beautiful sound

great vlog! Can you also kindly vlog the future upgrades on the bike? watching from Philippines

My first bike, over 30yrs ago, was a 1986 Honda XL125RF- this bike's grandad. Was perfect for tearing up the New Forest... I currently have a Honda VTX1800S cruiser and a 125 tiny old school monkey bike, so quite polar opposites! I'm thinking of another little XL for light off road duties around the same area you're filming as I'm just down the road now. I used to get an indicated 80mph out of mine, so a realistic 72/75 I'd say? I got a Yammy DT125R after which would blow it away with the valve opened up, but nowhere near as reliable. How I miss old C464DVF.....

Good video m8. Great wee bikes.

I’m looking at one of these as a second off road bike 👍🏻

Do you have link on covers on from sunspension (the black one)

Dziękuję za prezentację

Good video. I've just bought an xr125 for my first bike. Thinking about getting an exhaust for it like you have, yours sounds great, do you know which size silencer it is? As there's a few options, and I don't want to make it obnoxiously loud lol

Hey love this one ! But how did u find it for £800 ?? I still cant see any under £1800-2000 used. Really been digging would appreciate your help ! Thanks

im 14 i want to get it is it a good choice? im getting a beat up one for 1k

How does it compare to the XL varadero? What would you think is better for daily riding on dirt and asphalt?

Wondefull machine

nice biKE and watch there nice combo

Hi, I'm hesitating out of getting a honda xr 125 or a yamaha dt 125. What would you recommend me? Thanks

can you tell me which exaust you have. great video.

Love the XR. I have just got one in my 50`s. That exhaust sounds terrible.

What’s the max speed you get out of it

Prawdopodobnie taki sobie kupię

Wo hast du deinen Auspuff her?

Are you selling this bike ??? Im after one

It's also a good bike for old farts who've had big ones and little ones and just want something to tootle about on and run a few errands as well. Mine was made in Brazil of all places.
