Guest's review of Honda Varadero XL125V

“better than i thought it would be!”

★★★★☆

written by on 16/10/2012

first of all the bike looks like it should be a 600cc!!! i mean seriously how many 125s do you get that are this big and with an engine that actually looks bigger than it should be! took delivery of it last week (2008 model) and am seriously surprised on the guts that the engine has, it has some pull on it to say the least! its easy to handle but i would probably say that it is suited to the larger rider who doesnt want to fanny around looking about 10 times too big on a cbr 125. i have manage to get 70mph on a straight but relatively bumpy road and didnt have any problems with it... been reading about the place that it is hard to handle at high speeds which really isnt the case... going to take it down to a few spots where i know i can get more speed out of it rather than down my main road and see what she really does.... will keep posted on that one. one thing i dont like is that there isnt much space under the seat for storing much so i would definately advise to get a box to stash all your gear in it. all in all its a brilliant bike and am extremely happy with my purchase
