START SOMETHING SPECIAL
You wind open the throttle and move forward, effortlessly. The CB125F has opened up a whole new world ahead. This motorcycle could be the beginning of your new adventure. Redesigned from the wheels up around a super-efficient eSP engine and fine-handling chassis, it’s much lighter, much more economical and still packs the same great around-town performance. Where are you going? That’s up to you. Now, you have choices.
We’ve given the CB125F a full-sized feel, for a full-sized experience.
We’ve also cut 11kg in total, which you’ll notice when you twist the throttle and steer into a turn. Equipment includes a digital dash and LED headlight. In addition, its single-cylinder air-cooled, 2-valve eSP (enhanced Smart Power) PGM-FI fuel-injected engine has been designed tough. But it’s clever, too. That’s why it can deliver smart acceleration and fuel efficiency of 65km/l – giving a potential 800km range between fill-ups.
We know you might be riding a motorcycle to get to work, or as a way of life, an escape from the day-to-day. Either way, you may as well start something special, with each turn of the key.
The CB125F features the signature CB-family style of a broad-shouldered fuel tank and silver side shrouds.
But it’s also got something of its own going on. There’s wind protection from the angular nose fairing and fly screen, and the blacked-out engine and exhaust make bright graphics stand out sharply. Red rear shock springs add a sporty detail.
A premium LED headlight picks out the way forward. Passengers get their own grab-rail and, for easy care of the sealed drive chain, there’s a centre stand.
Big on style. Big on build quality. Light on running costs.
Low-friction technologies are built-in, and include rocker-roller arms equipped with needle bearings for valve operation, off-set cylinder and piston oil jet cooling. The Alternating Current Generator (ACG) combines electricity generation with starting duties, saving weight.
The angular nose fairing and fly screen cut through the air, while the broad-shouldered fuel tank features silver side shrouds, just like the CB500F.
A tubular high-tensile steel frame provides durability, matched to suspension that absorbs the hits. Seat height is 790mm, with plenty of room for two.
Stylish, split-spoke 18-inch cast aluminium wheels roll smoothly over rough road surfaces, and CBS manages the front disc/rear drum braking combination.
The smart digital dash includes a gear position indicator, as well as real-time and average fuel economy, distance to empty and ECO indicator to aid efficient riding.
