HONDACM125T 1978 - 1981

　　The Honda CM125 was a cruiser motorcycle, also known as Custom 125, manufactured by the Japanese maker from 1978 to 2002. The bike was part of the CM series and powered by an air-cooled parallel-twin cylinder OHC engine, reaching a top speed of 105 kph (65 mph).

　　The CM125C version combined the carburetor of the Honda CD125 Benly with the tall cylinder head and five-speed transmission of the Honda 125 Super Dream, which was a sportier model.

　　The CM125 motorcycle featured a popular North American design with cues borrowed from larger displacement cruisers of factory custom-styling machines. It had a high-mounted handlebar, megaphone-shaped mufflers, a teardrop-shaped fuel tank, and a stepped seat.

　　The bike featured more chrome-plated and polished elements than on the Superdream and Benly models. The chrome-plated finish could have been better quality, so the corrosion became a problem.

　　Honda also made a CM125T version available, equipped with a top hard case that enhanced storage capacity for long-distance traveling. Besides the extra storage, the CM125T was the same machine as the standard model.

　　In the braking department, the bike was fitted with a cable-operated drum unit on the front and a rod-operated drum unit on the rear.

　　A 31 mm center axle fork was handling the front suspension, while the rear was operated by dual spring preload-adjustable shock absorbers.

　　As for power, the 1978 Honda CM125T packed a 125cc four-stroke parallel-twin air-cooled engine, delivering an output power of 12 poneys at 7,500 rpm.
