125 typically gets a whopping 9.7hp with that kit installed I've heard the increase is a additional 15-20hp which could give that bike 30+hp potentially and a 5 speed transmission added i bet you could take that bike from a top speed of 55mph to more like 75mph so now it will go highway speeds

​@@ironsoul80sadly that new 5spd trans has the same gearing in 5th as the stock did in 4th.... you just have more acceleration due to the spacing of the gears....a rear sprocket change though would most certainly get you at least up to 70mph with the additional power.

My first bike was a Honda CT 70. Got a set of keys in a small box for Christmas when I was eleven. My neighbor owned two Honda shops and bored it out. I could pop wheelies with a twist of the wrist. An angry old man kept calling the cops on me every time I would go ridding on the giant field across the street. Ended up arrested and had to get rid of the bike. Still the best present I have ever gotten in my life.

Yessir, you hit the nail on the head there! Same here, especially with some of these mini bikes as people go ham on them and seeing what some of the possibilities are is just too cool. I just need to hit the lotto so I can go ham with about 10 of these minis and maybe throw one over the border for ya lol ;) Fingers crossed with its latest round of emissions updates it'll finally make the trek over to Canada, Europe etc as you guys have really gotten the shaft on not getting this bike. If only we lived in a world where you could buy any new Honda that rolls off the production line, instead of this whole "this country gets this, that country gets that" crap that we have now. Maaaan oh man would that be awesome as Honda makes some cool stuff that most people have no idea about, since it's not imported into their home country and they're not on the internet digging around to see what else might be out there. I could ramble on about all of that for an hour but we won't go there as I'm already rambling on lol, appreciate ya watching bud ;)

100%! Same here, it's amazing what tires alone can do! I'd love to see a Fat Cat style build out of one of these, it might look a little odd but then again, it might look pretty flippin cool!

100% bud! Haven't put much thought into it as the trip down there with you guys was the first time doing this and then this one being the second, with them having a small harness for me thankfully since they're rock climbers and were thinking more of my safety than I was lol, which showed me that I really need to start taking safety into account if I'm going to keep doing this. Appreciate ya ;)

We restored a barn Honda 1969 CT90 Trail K-1 with 1,200 miles on it that has four gears, and if selected, a granny low range. After lapping the valves, new coil, rectifier, battery, points, de-rust the fuel tank, gas filters and full carb rebuild kit, it will do 50 mph, GPS, on the flat with my son riding it who weighs 180 pounds. The new CT125 with fuel injection will only do 55 mph, and does not have the low range gear box. The "power" of the 125cc over the old 90cc is subjective. I'm willing to bet in a pulling contest with the 1968 CT 90 low range gear selected, it will pull the CT 125 backwards.

Very nice build. If Honda did it first, then this would have been a Trail 225 in Lambo yellow video. It would also cost double the price of a real factory model bike with a warranty. I'm not saying it isn't cool and nicely well done.

Seems like adding a big bore kit to it and using a newer grom 5 speed transmission would be considerably cheaper and would yield similar results. No need to add the separate radiator either.

Maybe it's my earphones, but I couldn't tell any significant difference in the exhaust note. I guess you had to be there. Also, no mention of fuel consumption for the modified versus factory rig. I'm betting the range of this modified bike has been significantly reduced unless they also increased the fuel capacity, although no mention of fuel capacity was mentioned.

That’s funny because I heard that the first Honda trail came about because a dealership in the US started modding Honda’s basic bike with grippy tires and a different transmission, selling them to locals who wanted to trail ride. The Japanese engineers adopted the mods and made the trail a worldwide hit. Who knows where these mods might lead? Honda, are you watching?

Not that this applies because this is a mod video but a new CT 125 is selling for $4,000 and I've been shopping around and found a cherry original CT 90 for $2,000. That's a no brainer.

I'd keep my Honda stock but add all the accessories. I don't mind added power but if it's a Honda motor. I've never had problems with my 110. Also I wish they'd install a sub transmission like the older ones. I go anywhere, up the steepest hills. Or if they had a gear that could go up any hill. I'd like that.

I have a ct110 and love it, I think then new trail 125 looks awesome too, but when I want more power I just ride a bigger bike. I don't completely understand modifying these little bikes. Maybe if I lived in a country where I was being taxed based on displacement and I was attempting to fly under the radar.
