The Honda CB125T was a standard motorcycle part of the CB series manufactured by Honda from 1975 to 1985. The bike came in a lightweight package and was an entry-level machine designed for beginner riders and commuting.
In 1981, the Japanese motorcycle manufacturer launched the Honda CB125T, a naked machine similar to its predecessor but with a few additional updates, such as new graphics and color options and a new electronic ignition system that improved starting and overall performance.
In addition, the bike came with standard features, such as a one-piece dual seat with passenger grab handles, cast aluminum wheels, a wide handlebar, a chrome exhaust system, a center stand, and a black-finished tubular steel frame.
In the handling department, the model featured a tubular steel frame that housed a 31 mm oil-damped telescopic fork on the front and dual shock absorbers with five-way preload adjustability on the rear for optimum suspension performance.
For braking, the bike packed a 242 mm disc with a hydraulic caliper on the front wheel and a 130 mm drum braking unit on the rear that provided optimum braking performance.
In the power department, the 1981 Honda CB125T had its heartbeat set by a 124cc four-stroke twin-cylinder air-cooled engine fitted with two Keihin carburetors and delivered an output power of 16 hp at 10,500 rpm and 10 Nm (7 lb-ft) of torque at 9000 rpm.
