1990 Honda MTX 125 review from United Kingdom

"Overall a reliable and nippy little bike for not a lot of cash"

What things have gone wrong with the motorcycle?

The bike has been surprisingly reliable for an old bike.

The only problems so far was when I didn't ride the bike for two weeks, and the clutch seized up and the tachometer stopped working.

General comments?

I paid a little over the odds for this bike, but it is in good condition for its age.

The bike is surprisingly quick at low speed acceleration, but runs out of puff above 50mph (it will do 75mph).

The equipment is good too with a liquid cooled 125 2 stroke single, Prolink rear suspension and gas adjustable front forks, as well as a hydraulic front disk brake.
