    I want the torque specs for the bolts etc like when I change oil or oil filter adjust the chain. Well from what I can see basic maintenance is very simple they've made it easier for you for example they have markings for the chain so you know stuff like that I can do and isn't down in my service plan to even look at it till 12.000 miles I think when most say it goes lose after the first 600 miles as its brand new and thats just an I for inspect at 12.000 miles. Just stuff like that but I'll learn as I go the only difference is the dealership has all the tools I don't currently have also if somthing more serious went wrong I wouldn't know what to do yet so yeah it would go to them and as I have to have it serviced by them during the next few years anyway for the warranty. But yeah most stuff looks pretty easy I'll no doubt eats them words at some point tho. Anyway well some might not be interested but I am I can't be rely on the dealership all of my life it never good to be overly dependent on anyone or anything else. Do you think the torque measurements would be the same yeah now i think the last change they did was in 2021 think they reduced the frame to 11kg so other bits that allude me right now.

    Mine is a honda cb125f 2021 model onwards where do I buy one of these books As the Haynes Manual only seema to go up to 2017 for the CB125F. Seems odd they wouldn't offer these specs with the main stuff.

    Anyone

    Hey no I've looked all through the manual i only have 2 torque specifications photo below. Does anyone have the sheet/info for a Honda CB125F 2021 model.?
  4. Apologies about video quality it seems to degrade a little when I upload or share it.
  5. Again here at 13.51.44 sec I've got many examples might have to speak to honda directly as It jumps and jolts and seems to be getting worse I've asked a dealership but haven't heard back yet. Screenshot /video here
  6. I have been given advise that the metal needs time to fully be worn in which makes sense but were now on month 2 so... It keeps happing it happens in all gears tho... Or is false neutral just what you call the it. If you look at the video if it lets me upload it it happened today was ridding fine came to a give way so. Went down to first. Then as I went again I know I clicked it into 2nd for a secound it says nothing then decides nope I didn't click it enough and its now in neutral It won't let me upload the clip from my helmet cam thats a shame but I get it sever costs Here is a link to the clip.

    I know this is a very old thread but I have a honda now renamed CB125F not much has changed from the CBF125 some weight loss etc. But no where in my book does I have a torque specifications page like that all I have are the torque settings for the screws for the license plates turn signals.
  9. Hi guys so new to bikes and now starting to take on the task of how it works why it works and how to maintain ideally so for future bikes I can fix them my self but currently its brand new and by the warranty has to go to a Honda or vat registered guy which I don't mind till I know how to do stuff. First thing gears wow keep having issues with these it won't click into gear sometimes I know I've done it I feel it but the dash board isn't having any if it then for a few seconds she yells at me by jolting me over the place the dash seems to then pick this up normally this only happens when I've actually gone through a gear change scenario so wasn't sure if it was just me being new. But they're only so many ways you can push a piece of metal with the foot then today she was in just going down the road and mid road decided she wasn't in any gear anymore I hadn't even made attempt to change gear she gave me the 2 little lines to say she wasn't in a gear for like 2 seconds then chnaged her mind and went on to display the gear.??? As you can see screenshots attached from my helmet cam and a close up of when it first started like 15miles in I've pm my local dealership but as its a sunday I won't hear back till sometime next week I suppose.
  10. It's definitely fit over brand/price I've found
  11. Yeah I've got a lot to lean about the gore-texk heprio is it the Korean stuff the secound yeah definitely gotta learn but that will happen as things arise like this. Cherrs guys for all the help.
  12. I wouldn't mind spending more the thing is I've looked at major brands and they either don't go up to my size which is odd as Id say I'm average build or they haven't got the stock.
  13. Yeah I've had to send them back as they are just to tight around the upper thighs when gear changing but mostly when stability is needed at lights etc... Aka foot down and this is with the inner lining out aswell. Either way boxers or jeans I would have thought over the jeans would be a better selling point as you don't have to then nip off to change once you get somewhere. But eithrr way doesn't make a difference The water issue might be on me as it miggt have soaked up which I get but my trousers are strapped and shoes have been sprayed with the sneaker protector which tbh doesn't seem to work when rain penetration from a motorcycle probably just meant as walking boots. Zip did match in the end and found it keeps ghem up and the wind of my carck lol
  14. Hi there seems to be somthing getting lost in translation.... As I have already purchased the gear. No I don't scoff at anything I have an Oxford jacket and there own brand bottoms... Issue was there low stock in my sizes this is why I had to mix max brands which means I can't use the zip at the back I will try again to day but as you would think a zip is a zip. Well the tags say 100% and it was moderate rainfall on the main bad weather since I got them and they stayed dry everywhere apart for my shines. My other concerns which no one seems to have addressed is the tightness its so tight around the upper thigh that I have to have the inner lining out to try and give me so room around that area and the tightness make it harder for me to then put my foot down at traffic lights etc. Also makes changing gear stiffer...? Is this normal as this seems like unsafe. Also is it just me and my boxers underneath no jeans ect When you say bone dry.... My jacket doesn't keep me bone dry it gets damp but most doesn't work its way through to my shirt etc which is good considering how bad the wather gets up here. Again with the trousers its j&s so just a nice budget own brand.. Again I can't see the difference as the raw materials are the same cotton is cotton lol. But obviously some more expensive brands have added extra during the manufacturing process but the own brands seems good also. And to be honest I tried and few more expensive brands and they just don't go to my size and I'm not even big I would say I'm average and they just stoped at like 3xl and 3xl wasn't even big if you get my drift they way they label and size things is odd seems richa is an online. Mate I tell you that was my go to but because of they way they mess with labels and sizes I had to send it all back so buying clothes online always seems to cost me as they say you didn't use the chart etc. But unfortunately the stock situation in my nearest bike shops for my sizes are hit and miss maybe they will restock for all the kids that will get bikes for xmas so online is a no no as I can try stuff on that meets my measurements but doesn't fit so definitely need a place to try one. If anyone with more experience can answer the issues about the tightness and the zip bit at the back cherrs. Photos attached oxford spartan jacket and j&s bottoms/trousers/pants very nice people just low on my sizes.
  15. Gortex lining laminated to the outer is more waterproof than if it is a separate layer, because the laminated one stops water soaking the outer layer. The ones with a layer of Gortex added allows the outer layer to soak up the rain, which will inevitably find its way through so you get wet in places Okay so is there 2 kinds then one that has it layerd outside... You say this is the better than the ones just added as a separate layer??? Are both laminated? At first you say it only allows sweat through then say you will get wet in places. I don't mind getting a little wet no one can aviod it 100% even in cars you gotta get out at some point. Just when your jeans are soaked though and socks and boots you can't then carry on in that gear... Cherrs
  16. Wow okay thanks well out of my price range... My boots aren't motorcycle boots or brought as such just normal with some waterproof spray so didn't think it would work for bike riding tbh. Wouldn't waterproff boots actually work or at least boots sold as motorcycle waterproff boots surely these are waterproof or is this again not the case?
  17. I get that 2 where it collects on a crease on my jacket right above my belly buttom then ploop it goes right onto my....... What do you mean I piece do you mean the overall looking thing like a raincoate material but for all over. Mine is a 2 piece be it different brands and is around 80% water proff. Boots need to sort as the sparys just don't work for that level of penetration I guess...
  18. Okay guys you've all been great isn't my stuff goretex....??? Can someone explain what they are and what the difference is between laminated or goretex gear. After looking at the price of goretex I think l'll just stay wet lol.
  19. Sorry guys I should have been more clear as technically jeans are also textiles lol... I have a 2 piece top is oxford and is okay but again guys only had this one in my size by chance as all the other lines was sold out for 3xl upwards The bottoms again the only ones they had in my size has been exchanged already due to a zip issue this is their own brand J&S seems I was getting some splash back from cars and the surface as this is the only location. And yeah I know about the sprays my feet get soaked as it just doesn't stop the rain at all from comming in I think I sprayed a whole bottle onto one pair of boots still gets in so yeah I'm going to have sort that at aswell at some point. As for them falling down around the butt crack... Who else's gets this it gets bloody cold with the wind on it lol..... They are menat to be zipped but the zips don't match as they are different brands it seems. Main concern over a little splash is the tightness around the thigh it worries me as it makes it harder to put my leg down to steady the bike at lights etc and the tightness is general makea it harder to ride. Easy solution to this is if they stitched in an extra layer to add movement to the crotch area but seems they haven't figured this out yet. As the extra fabric would give you me more motion I'd rather have both protection and waterproofing even to a lesser degree its dangerous out there and I don't want to know how much braking your back hurts or somthing worse.... Like your neck probably jinked myself now lol. Anyway sorry in advance for the spelling mistakes I was trying to reply to all of you guys as fast as possible so might be a few errors that I'm to lazy to now correct via edit... Photos now added of items
  20. I thought off that also I see builder seem dryer than me but the down side it offers no protection at all
  21. I want the protection they offer I had a motorcycle crash when I was younger it hurts and I even got very luck it wasn't worse. I'm not messing around with these bad boys I also need to get from A to B as dry as possible.
  22. This is a 2 piece but because of stock issue the jacket and bottoms are different brands but cotton is cotton right.... Yeah like compared to how bad it would be without them id be soaked this is nothing but not 100%
  23. I should have explained I have textile trousers and jacket and the pic is just to show wear they came through on my jeans as you wouldn't have been able to see this on my skin I don't think. They work pretty good thats the only place that got wet and it got a tad heavy this morning bloody puts me off bikes lol So yeah my fault I have textile waterproff trousers and jacket
  24. Yeah that's ny jeans so you can see where it came through... I know your menat to just wear your boxers underneath but I was hoping not to have to change so went with them on. I know this adds to them but I have taken the lining out so I have tried them with each way the get to hot with the lining in even when its cold and make me sweat. I was advised you don't war anything but your boxers underneath...? The guys at the shop are nice they let me sit on my bike I did say it was still tight around the crotch but the bike was stationary so I didn't realise and also your being quick so not to piss them off more lol. Yeah I've taken a few things back so and for my size they just don't seem to have the stock in its old sold. Cherrs not many bike shops up my way definitely no sportsbike shop in riding distance I would have to go down into England ones up my way are okay there just not got the stock for my size to offer me more choices it more if you find anything that fits you gotta get it or nothing as like I said the stocks just gone on most other brands at the sizes i need.
  25. So I've recently brought some textiles jacket and trousers different makes as they didn't have the stock in But what I've found the are very very tight on the inner thigh making it hard to get my leg over my bike but more of a concern is just putting my foot down to support my bike at stops like lights. This also with the gear change seems very tight and restrictive surely they would know this if its a design flaw and not a size flaw if it is a design flaw just a added layer of fabric would losen this area up and add better movement. Also aren't they meant to be 100% i oftern have patches like today all on my bottom half the water came through. Totally new so need some advise about what is normal what isn't I already had to take stuff back to the shop I'd prefer not to again but obviously I need them to be water proff and keep the bike safe whem driving. Thoughts guys/girls P. S also i find they fall down and i assume the little sip at the back is to attach the jacket but as they are different brands this doesn't seem to work but the tightness is a major concern and the ability to stop me getting wet so I'm not soaked after I've driven somewhere.
