De Honda CB125F werd in 2015 geïntroduceerd als opvolger van de CB125E, voornamelijk ontworpen voor Europese en Aziatische markten als een toegankelijke, zuinige woon-werkmotorfiets. Het vertegenwoordigt Honda's moderne interpretatie van de klassieke CB-roadster die geschikt is voor studenten, met een verfijnde eencilindermotor met brandstofinjectie en een strak, eigentijds ontwerp. De CB125F is populair bij nieuwe rijders en pendelaars in de stad vanwege de lage gebruikskosten, betrouwbaarheid en de naleving van Honda's A1-licentiecategorie in Europa.

Wat kopers moeten weten
Rock-Solid Reliability
The CB125F uses a simple, proven single-cylinder air-cooled engine with minimal electronics, making it one of the most reliable 125cc commuters available. Owners regularly report 30,000+ miles with only routine maintenance.
Watch the Cam Chain
A known issue on higher-mileage CB125Fs is cam chain tensioner wear, which produces a rattling noise on startup. Always listen for this when buying used, as repair costs can be disproportionate on a budget bike.
Strong Resale Value
Honda badging and a reputation for longevity means CB125Fs hold their value unusually well in the used market compared to rival brands. A well-maintained example can retain 60-70% of its value after two years.

Beoordeling van gebruikte kopers
"The sensible, slightly dull choice that rarely lets you down."
$1,500-$3,200 usedThe CB125F is Honda's bread-and-butter learner, and used examples are genuinely worth considering if you know what you're buying. Build quality is solid — these things are assembled to last, not just to a price point. The fuel-injected engine starts first time every time, returns around 130mpg in real-world riding, and genuinely doesn't need much attention between services. Find one with a decent service history and you're laughing. That said, be honest with yourself about what this bike is. It's a commuter appliance, not a motorcycle to get excited about. The suspension is soft, the brakes are adequate at best, and that 125cc single runs out of breath embarrassingly quickly on faster A-roads. Previous owners often thrash them mercilessly in city traffic, so check the chain, sprockets, and clutch carefully on any used example. For a new or returning rider tackling urban commutes, a clean used CB125F at the right money makes complete sense. Just don't expect it to grow with you — it won't.
