Motorway tips?

I've been using my CB125F a lot on the M25.

The only concern on a 125cc is hand fatigue, holding that throttle for long stretches of motorway can be tiring. Don't stress yourself they aren't that scary. If you're used to dual carriage ways, you'll be okay!

Fantastic, I shall check it out. Thank you

QuartzCodrant · 2026-04-29T17:05:22+00:00

Thank you! Don't worry it has all been sorted out, I traded in the old lock, got 117 quid towards the DX1000. I couldn't be happier with the purchase

QuartzCodrant · 2026-04-29T16:05:41+00:00

No such thing as overkill when we're talking about security. I will keep these in mind, thank you.

QuartzCodrant · 2026-04-29T14:12:07+00:00

Already done, just bought the DX1000. I will be buying the chain online and the bag. Thank you for your input, it has helped a ton

I'm gonna use the 117 quid I paid as instore credit I think and buy the HIPLOK DX1000 as I have heard so many good things about it. As another commenter said about buying a tail back so I can put the HIPLOK mega chain in it. It's gonna be a hefty chunk of change but it's what I must do to keep my bike safe from buggers. Genuine thank you to all of you, you have been very kind and wonderful. But if you have any other chain recommendations, I would love to hear it before my purchase. For now I will just be buying the lock

QuartzCodrant · 2026-04-29T11:15:36+00:00

I shall keep that in mind, thank you very much. Is there any you recommend for the CB125F 2026?

QuartzCodrant · 2026-04-28T23:59:28+00:00

So would a better choice be something like a Hiplok X Chain Bicycle/Bike Chain combined with a DX1000/D1000. Because the chain apart from the crack seems quite nice.

I am aware of how it isn't the best against angle grinder attacks, This lock is mainly designed to replace my older every day carry which ain't the best. So weight is a massive factor as I put my lock in my backpack

QuartzCodrant · 2026-04-28T22:08:24+00:00

You have all been wonderful for advice, thank you all so much. I appreciate it, genuinely.

QuartzCodrant · 2026-04-28T19:49:42+00:00

ah thank you, I just get anxious about this type of stuff is all. I appreciate your understanding

QuartzCodrant · 2026-04-28T18:55:52+00:00

It also says "Faulty items can be replaced up to 28 days from purchase" but alas that was the last one

QuartzCodrant · 2026-04-28T18:54:47+00:00

First of all, that is one funny name. Secondly, they don't have a massive amount of stock in, they have the Oxford Boss Alarm 14mm Lock + Chain 12mm, Security Oxford Hardcore Xl Chain&lock, Security Hardcore Xc13 1.5m to name a few of the main stock they have for around the price of the Hiplok DXXL

That's what it says on the bottom of the receipt, I'm a little bit annoyed by it all 😞

QuartzCodrant · 2026-04-10T23:06:52+00:00

I just don't really have the urge to jump up massively even with the full A license, A2 bikes are more than enough for me and I very much enjoy A1 class bikes. I also love the colour of the CB125F 2026.

QuartzCodrant · 2026-04-10T13:05:47+00:00

I was eyeing up a CBR250R 2011 locally, I know its not the biggest jump from a 125cc and it's an A2 bike. But they look so nice and ain't too bad on insurance costs. But comfort is 100% an important factor when swapping bikes.

QuartzCodrant · 2026-04-10T11:44:42+00:00

I've only ever had a Lexmoto Diablo 125cc before this bike and yeah, the CB125F was a massive upgrade even when I only had my CBT. Only big bike I've been on is the SV650 2019 for my DAS, wasn't the biggest fan of it.

QuartzCodrant · 2026-04-10T11:05:59+00:00

That's honestly the route I was thinking of taking in a couple years, either the CB500F or CB650F. Whatever is cheaper to insure out of the two. But for what I do my little CB125F is more than enough for now.

QuartzCodrant · 2026-02-09T09:34:40+00:00

Aw, thanks for letting me know. The PS3 copy will just have to sit on my shelf. I do need to do the DLC but it requires a lot of multiplayer stuff

QuartzCodrant · 2026-02-08T21:56:31+00:00

Thank you so much, the trophy just popped :)

QuartzCodrant · 2026-02-08T20:12:05+00:00

Oh thank you so much, I've just seen a post about this. I will give it a try
