Having saturated the market with everyday commuter motorcycles, Honda is now venturing into a more niche segment: catering to younger, adventure-seeking enthusiasts with a penchant for vintage aesthetics. Their latest release, the CT 125, is designed to captivate the hearts of travel and exploration aficionados.
Born from the legacy of the iconic Honda CT70, CT90, and CT110 of the 1960s—the “CUB Trail” series synonymous with hill-climbing and stream-crossing adventurers—the CT125 seamlessly blends classic charm with modern technology.

With its compact design, sturdy frame, and “vintage off-road” style, the CT125 embodies the spirit of an adventurer’s bike. The underguard and high-mounted exhaust enable it to navigate rough terrain with ease, while the high seat and 19° climbing angle (with a 20 kg load) offer agility on challenging routes.

The overall design retains a classic essence while incorporating modern touches like round LED headlights, distinctive square turn signals, and a digital LCD display showing speed, distance, and fuel consumption. The CT125 is more than a mode of transport—it’s a true companion for the nomadic soul.


Honda has equipped the CT125 with a 125cc PGM-FI, SOHC, air-cooled, four-stroke engine, ensuring stable performance, high durability, and impressive fuel efficiency. The 5.4-liter fuel tank—the largest in Honda Vietnam’s manual transmission lineup—extends the bike’s range, making it ideal for long journeys.
The rear features a large cargo rack (409 mm x 477 mm) and four convenient hooks, perfect for carrying luggage, camping gear, or outdoor equipment. The smooth suspension and off-road tires provide excellent traction across various surfaces.


Notably, the front wheel is equipped with an Anti-lock Braking System (ABS), enhancing stability during emergency stops, especially on slippery surfaces—a feature that positions the CT125 as one of Honda’s safest manual transmission models to date.
Honda Vietnam announced that the CT125 will be available for purchase from November 4, 2025, at 20 authorized Honda dealerships and 3 DreamWing large-displacement motorcycle stores nationwide. The bike comes in Matte Black, with a suggested retail price of 87,390,000 VND (including 10% VAT).
