Starts first time, always


Bad Points

The choke apparently switches off too soon at anything below 4 degrees, meaning that the engine cuts out whenever the throttle is closed. This can last for as long as 15 minutes - I have to keep the revs up, even at traffic lights, and if I ever close the throttle just to slow down, the engine cuts and I can't accelerate away. Has anyone else had this problem?

The ride is a bit stiff.


General Comments

Other than the problem I've had in cold weather, about which my dealer tells me nothing can be done, the Honda PS125i bike is extremely good value, and I'd strongly recommend it.

    I have this problem too! The last few weeks my PS125i starts to cut off at the traffic lights and the FI light on the dash board comes on. I think this is dangerous and unacceptable. I had to complete an emergency stop yesterday to avoid a car and needed to get back on the throttle to get out of the way. The bike just stop dead. Luckily I didn't get hit but this is a real safety issue.
