CSC TT250 and SG250 vs the Honda CT125: TWICE the Motorcycle for LESS!
Do NOT buy a Honda CT125! Save $1,000, $1,500 or more with the CSC TT250 and SG250 – Motorcycle riding FUN you can afford!
Honda introduced the CT90 trail bike back in the 1960’s. The marketing was inspired. They never attempted to market the CT90 to hardcore bikers. Instead, they targeted people who otherwise had no interest in big, loud, and expensive motorcycles.
Fast forward 60 years and the Honda CT90 is now the CT125. It still looks like fun.
The basic design remains the same. Back in the 1960’s buyers appreciated the economy of the CT90, and current owners REALLY appreciate the economy of the tiny motorcycle at today’s prices!
The CT125 remains one of Honda's most popular models.
BUT - the Honda Trail CT125 the motorcycle its owners love to HATE?
Why are CT125 forums and owner’s groups on Facebook full of negative posts? Why does it seem like HALF of CT125 owners want to sell, including many like-new bikes with less than 100 miles? If the CT125 motorcycle is the pinnacle of versatility, what are owners (and prospective owners) complaining about?
CT125 Complaint Number 1: Poor availability.
Most Honda dealers typically stock ONE CT125 - or NONE. It’s obvious that dealers prefer to sell Honda 500’s and 1800cc Goldwings with much higher profit margins. Many dealers have a waiting list for the CT125, with delivery that can take months.
CT125 Complaint Number 2: No color choices.
It’s a small thing, but not everyone wants a yellow motorcycle (or green, or red – or whatever the single “color of the year” is.) Production of the CT125 in Thailand is limited. Next year, if you want to buy a matching CT125 you are out of luck.
CT125 Complaint Number 3: Lack of accessories.
The Honda website lists only 2 (TWO) accessories for the CT125. Because the CT125 (Hunter Cub) is sold around the world, many North American owners are forced to order accessories directly from Asian sources. Because of the unique design, there are few generic parts available for the CT125.
After CT125 owners have often waited months or traveled to another state to make the purchase, then paid a premium to buy the Trail 125, they are soon disappointed. These owners turn around and list their like-new motorcycles for sale.
More than any other motorcycle model, the owners of the Honda CT125
simply suffer from Buyer's Remorse.
The Honda marketing overpromises and under-delivers. There are HUNDREDS, maybe THOUSANDS of CT125s for sale at any moment because it is just not FUN to ride!
Do NOT buy the Honda CT125 for emotional reasons. Do NOT buy the CT125 without even taking a test ride! (Not that all Honda dealers ALLOW test rides...)
The CT125 motorcycle stirs nostalgic FEELINGS. But the high turnover confirms the dissatisfaction with the riding experience. I really can't think of another product that so many people buy and hate immediately. Only a small percentage of CT125 owners are willing to tolerate the inadequacies of this model.
What is the alternative? Is there an economical motorcycle that is also affordable? Is there a motorcycle that is fun to ride, but also comfortable? Is there a motorcycle with the features that overcome the deficiencies of the Trail CT125?
CSC Motorcycles is dedicated to delivering "Motorcycle riding fun that you can afford!" CSC has delivered on this promise with its TWO most popular models: The TT250 Enduro and the SG250 San Gabriel.
The CSC TT250 Enduro is the all-road, all-purpose BEST motorcycle value!
The CSC SG250 San Gabriel is the BEST street and scrambler motorcycle value!
BOTH the TT250 and SG250 are handsome, rugged, and equipped with ALL the essential features that motorcycle riders demand.
These models intentionally avoid high-tech complications. The cycles are equipped with a proven 230cc, air-cooled counter-balanced engine with DOUBLE the horsepower of the CT125 - and that is only the FIRST huge upgrade.
The CSC TT250 Enduro and SG250 deliver 100% MORE horsepower than 125cc mini-moto bikes, including the Honda CT125 and Super Cub, Grom, and Monkey. These full-featured motorcycles have an MSRP of only $2,495.00 including a One-Year warranty!
Do NOT buy a Honda #CT125 (or Super Cub) - pay TWICE the price and get HALF the motorcycle!
The 2024 TT250 is currently ON SALE (as of the date of this article) for ONLY $1,995.!!! Set-up and Documentation is $410.00, for a total of only $2,405.00 - not including taxes and registration. Delivery, if required, is $425.00 flat rate, making the total delivered price ONLY $3,330.00.
Compare the CSC TT250 and CSC SG250 vs the Honda CT125: There is NO comparison!
The CT125 has an underpowered 125cc, 8 HP motor with 4-speed transmission, 1.4-gallon gas tank, smaller wheels and less ground clearance, with a ONE-year warranty. It is overpriced: MSRP $4,099 plus dealer fees and markup (average $4,600 to $5,000, NOT including taxes and registration.)
The TT250 and SG250 embody modern design, and technology but have earned a reputation for durability and low maintenance. The CT125 is a retro design that hasn’t been updated since the 1960’s.
The CSC TT250 and SG250 are UNMATCHED BEST Values:
MORE power and torque
HIGHER weight capacity, rider and passenger
Wide, soft COMFORTABLE saddle
LARGER wheels and tires
GREATER ground clearance
HIGHER top speed
LARGER gas tank and LONGER riding range
