Honda 125cc in the UK: A Pakistani Rider's Perspective
Hey PakWheels community!
After moving to the UK, I've been exploring their 125cc bike culture (especially Honda models like CB125F/CBR125R) and wanted to share some interesting comparisons with Pakistan's riding scene.
Key Observations:
1. Licensing Differences
- UK riders can legally ride 125cc bikes at 17 with just 1-day training
- Pakistan's licensing process is quite different
-
Practical Advantages
- My CB125F averages 150mpg (60km/l) - perfect for UK fuel prices
Surprisingly nimble in city traffic (though not as powerful as our 150cc bikes)
Maintenance Culture
- UK's strict MOT inspections ensure better maintained bikes
- Miss the creative roadside repairs we see back home!
Discussion Starters:
1. Would you consider a UK-spec 125cc bike for Pakistani roads?
2. What's the ideal engine size for our traffic conditions?
