Honda Trail 125 Coming to America
One of the most recognizable Hondas ever created is on its way to the USA. The Honda Trail 125 will debut as a 2021 model and is based on the Super Cub and Monkey bike but in a more rugged package.
Retailing for $3899, the Trail 125, known as the CT125 in most other areas of the world, uses same 125cc four-stroke, single-cylinder overhead-camshaft design operating two valves, but with a high-mounted air intake and upswept exhaust to enhance low-end and midrange power. As with the Super Cub, the Trail 125 has a four-speed semiautomatic transmission.
“When American Honda was established in 1959 and began offering the Honda 50, Idaho dealer Herb Uhl started modifying it for off-road use, resulting in Honda producing the Trail 50,” said Lee Edmunds, Senior Manager of Powersports Marketing for American Honda. “That model became ubiquitous in American campgrounds and on motorhome bumpers in the ’60s and ’70s and led to a number of successors. For that reason, the CT brand has a special history with the U.S. market, and it’s great to see it return with the Trail 125 which, like the Super Cub and Monkey, hearkens back to a golden era of American motorcycling but with modern technology and reliability.”
The 2021 Honda Trail 125 is scheduled for release in November and will be available in Glowing Red. CN
