Hi worthy members!
So, I have recently bought CG 125 (2017 sticker -- oh I mean 2017 "model' )
but right from the day one I have faced 2 problems
1. My meter is faulty, even at 20kmph it shows >40kmph on dial
2. At higher speeds, the bike vibrates a lot, especially the left side (clutch and handle)

Keep in mind that I have only rode it for 150 km. Even the first tuning is due.
I need your opinion on both issues, esp. the vibration part is so annoying. It feels as if I am riding a massage chair. Before I take to to any Honda mechanic, I want to get your valuable feedback.
Your help would be highly appreciated.

^ Try to claim the speedometer in warranty from Honda warranty dealer ..

Vibration is benchmark of this specific bike but if the vibration is extreme then also get it checked from some good honda mechanic. Might be only some loose nut bolts are causing these excessive vibrations.

I have also purchased the same model few days ago, now 35km on odo.
No issue of speedo meter. Anyhow vibration issue was there which was resolved by tightening the nut bolts joining the engine and frame.

Faulty Speed O Meter can be claimed by the Company. Vibration will reduce gradually (not completely) with the passage of time/running and changing of oil (good quality engine oil & grade as specified by the manufacturer). Get all nuts bolts re-tightened by the service centre. Enjoy the ride and drive carefully.

AOA brothers, same problem here i bought cg125 2017, uptill today 820km driven. first oil changed at 250 2nd at 600. third will be with first tuning at 1000. the problem of vibration is really annoying.. it was present from the day one. two times i went to hinda dealers and they said ok we will resolve it... the tightened some nuts and said its done but the problem is still there. at higher speeds i.e >60 it vibrates and rattles like hell especially the left side of handle, clutch lever, meter and hands become numb after 15 minutes of ride. I am in lahore.
any suggesstions?

Sale it and get GS150 otherwise learn to live with these problems of Honda 125.

I agree. OHV engines have vibrations.
