In 1980, the Honda CB125T, released by the Japanese motorcycle manufacturer, was a standard motorcycle part of the CB series, a series known for its reliability and performance, with motorcycles of different displacements.
The Honda CB125T was an entry-level machine best suited for beginner riders and commuting but also for the more seasoned ones who were looking for an agile and economical machine rather than a bike with brute force on tap.
The 1980 model came equipped with standard features, such as a one-piece dual seat with passenger grab handles, cast aluminum wheels, a wide handlebar, a chrome exhaust system, a center stand, and a black-finished tubular steel frame.
For suspension, the bike packed the same suspension system as previous models, with a 31 mm oil-damped telescopic fork on the front and dual shock absorbers with five-way preload adjustability on the rear for optimum suspension performance.
The stopping power was handled by a 242 mm disc with a hydraulic caliper on the front wheel and a 130 mm drum braking unit on the rear that provided optimum braking performance.
As for power, the 1980 Honda CB125T had at its core a 124cc four-stroke twin-cylinder air-cooled engine fitted with two Keihin carburetors and delivered an output power of 16 hp at 10,500 rpm and 10 Nm (7 lb-ft) of torque at 9000 rpm.
