Thanks for sharing your video. The scenery was spectacular. I am glad that you decided to change the sprockets and tires, it really does make a world of difference. We played with a combination of 13 and 42 and 14 and 42. Decided on the 14/42 combo since the 13-tooth front sprocket constantly messed with our ABS systems. We are happy with that combination. Here in Thailand, they manufacture two different tires very similar to the Shinko's. They are IRC and Vee Rubber. Regardless of what make tire, the upgrade from stock was almost necessary unless on rode pavement nearly all the time. Great educational video, well done. A couple other easy modifications which I swear by are handlebar risers 22mm, removal of the rubber foot peg attachments, front fender raise kit, different exhaust to begin with.

Nice test!! I've worn out 2 sets of those 241s with the 13 tooth on it, 4500 miles is their max. I can agree 100% with you. Excellent improvement from factory. I'm now trying the 244s, I have 5500 miles already on them and they are a bit better for traction but rough on the roads. Thanks for the vid!!

Great video! I put the 241’s on my trail and it’s such an improvement. After watching your video I might have to consider sprockets at some. Don’t have much hills where I live but eventually I’d like to haul it with on trips. I’ve had a lot of toys over the years and the trail 125 might be my favorite! .. if only mods weren’t so spendy 🤑

WOW, great video, fantastic riding country! I am picking up my new 24 Trail (Yellow) sometime this week and will definitely put the mods you did for this video to good use. Any test done on how it affected highway top speeds? Also I have been hearing some reports that changing the gearing somehow affects the ABS sensor and kicks out errors at highway speeds. I am mostly going to use mine off road. Thanks again for the great vista eye candy!

Thank you for watching Don’t really ride highway with it much It will still do 55mph But to answer your question. Yes the ABS light flashes when above 30 mph. And in my opinion I’m glad it turns ABS off because dirt/gravel and ABS don’t mix well together Doesn’t bother me one bit. And after awhile you don’t even notice the light anymore.

@@EverythingOutdoorswithTito Thanks, IMO Honda missed a golden opportunity here by not adding a lower gear under the neutral position. By leaving neutral between 1st and 2nd where normal motorcycles are, you could just start out in second easily on flatter ground or drop down to "granny low" like an old Ford pickup for those times when starting out up a steeper hill. Might not need any sprocket changes that way and at a much cheaper build price than a "low range".

i got the vee rubber 3.0 ( from thailand ) cant wait to put them and the new shocks on ! i am strongly considering the sprocket upgrade as well... BUT if i do the sprocket id prolly go with the light big bore kit ( 143 ) at the same time. its mostly about the labor as the kit is only like $100 if you buy the parts yourself seperately

Don't sugar coat it, the Gen 2 engine is lack luster at best, even dropping the gear ratio down doesn't help. The Gen 1 engine can be improved with multiple BBK options. None for the Gen 2 engine. The Gen 1 has three options: the 143cc, 162cc and the 181cc BBk. As long as you do proper head modifications with these BBK's to keep the compression close to stop, you should have little to no problems with them and a simple Shinko tire mod with a 42T rear sprocket is all you need to climb most any road or trail around. If you still can't get up a hill, slap a set of full knobs by Camel on the bike and throw on a 45T rear sprocket and it WILL go up that hill. We've been doing it since 2020 here in Thailand.... Leave the stock 14T front sprocket on the bike as messing with that seems to upset the ABS system..... Like I said, we've been working these bikes since they first came out, the Gen 1 bike is the way to go and the Gen 2 cannot get the necessary power output as Honda purposely made the block to cylinder studs to close to the cylinder sleeves as to not be able to bore the cylinder out to accommodate a larger piston. Not trying to bust your chops, just letting you know that we've been working on this model since 2020 and what we've come up with seems to work pretty good. Watch my channel, we're going to setup my CT to ride in a Thai Enduro. They don't have easy enduros here in Thailand......

Nice test, wondering have you noticed how far off the speedo is with this combination? I'm thinking about going with the same tires and some combination of 13/40-42, I'll be doing a lot of in town riding, plus gravel roads and trails.

Seems to get up to speed easier. Not sure on how far the speedo is off yet. But I will figure it out soon, as that’s the number one asked question. The Colorado 500 charity ride is in the area so I’ll be busy all week with that keep a eye out for the video on speedometer differences and side effects of larger tires and lower gearing. Cheers

Just seeing it on the steepest climb and hearing the engine rev on the throttle and see that the rear wheel does nothing makes me think I wouldn't like this automatic clutch. BTW nice sand color not available here in canada .I better find an old CT Trail 90, paint it to my liking and put a Lifan 150 with manual clutch on it. Too bad I like F.I. .

Other then the abs light flashing. It’s still a blast to play on. Might start a new video series on it seeing how it does on the Colorado passes above 12000ft. Just finished doing most of them on the ktm 690 and can’t help but wonder how the little Honda would do. So that’s the new plan.
