Xr 125cc Honda life expectancy?

Question

I'm curious to the life expectancy of my Honda xr 125 it has 25k miles on the clock and is a 2005 model, thanks

Answer 1

A small engine like that will benefit from an oil change every thousand miles and a full service every three thousand miles with oil and filter change, plus air filter and spark plug. Do that and you may expect 40-50, 000+ miles from your engine providing you treat your bike with respect and don't wheelie everywhere.

Answer 2

Well, I have 15k on a 50cc two stroke, and it's in great shape.



Your Honda will likely run at least 1000 hour @ redline before it needs top end attention. Figure 2000hours of moderate riding. So let's do the maths....



2000hrs.x35mph average speed= 70,000 miles. Of course that's with maintenance and a bit of luck.

Answer 3

Any bike if looked after should go on forever as long as Honda continue making the spares that is. Keep it regularly serviced and ensure any issues are dealt with swiftly and it should be another 25k before it will need an engine rebuild.

Answer 4

That's one tired little Honda. As good as they are it can't have too much get up and go left.
