Dax 125 (124cc)Owner: Gutoku

This corner introduces one MY BIKE submitted to Webike Community every week.
The model introduced this time is HONDA「DAX 125」and the owner is "Gutoku".

The Dax 125 was just released in 2023, and while it retains the cute style of yesteryear, it is a very popular and up-to-date machine that has been adapted to modern traffic conditions and technology! For a while after its release, you had to wait for months for it to arrive, but recently we are seeing more and more of them around town.

I would like to introduce you to the Dax 125, which I enjoy so much that I want to ride it every day. I'll ride it even in the rain. He enjoys it so much that he wants to ride it every day, even in the rain. He enjoys riding it on the street and touring, and of course, he has customized it to perfection! While he has added the standard customization such as Yoshimura Cyclone, engine guard, cushion seat cover, and fog light kit, he has also added some unusual customization such as a self-made rear carrier and Ferrari's OEM horn. The impressions of the Dax are very informative for riders who are interested in Dax!

The self-made carrier is equipped with a side case-like basket. It looks convenient for shopping!

SP TAKEGAWA fog lamps are set at the front. The red parts are OEM Ferrari horns! what does it sound like?

One disappointing point is that the center stand is said to rub easily. So, Mr. Gutoku cut the stopper a little. This alone will allow him to drive comfortably even in corners!

In addition to customization, maximum care is taken with daily chain lubrication and oil changes to ensure long-lasting enjoyment!

FROM MY BIKE COMMENTS

Motive for purchase

We use it for both city riding and touring.

Advantages

The sound of the twin, in the vein of the K2, was given a ride on as a child, is absolutely outstanding. I enjoy it so much that I want to ride it every day.
I ride it in the rain. After riding, I put enough chain oil on the bike, wash it, and polish it with cleaner.

Disadvantages

The rear suspension has plenty of parts, but the front suspension is not adjustable.
The rider is heavy, so it bottoms out fully. In the future, I would really like to see the initial adjusters, etc., made adjustable. Also, the springs and oil should be replaceable.

Advice for prospective buyers

Regarding the center stand, I think it rubs a little at the slightest tilt due to my heavy weight.
The stopper when folded is 1~2cm long, so I will try to cut it a little.
If I change the muffler again, it might interfere with the center stand, so I plan to remove it then.

I cut the stopper about 1.5cm and it no longer rubs on corners.

Future Custom Plans

I am ordering a Yoshimura Cyclone up-type muffler, but I am not looking for power or speed at all. I am not looking for power or speed at all. Since a small bike tends to be used at high rpm, I will take maximum care in oil management, install parts that are gentle to the bike and prevent breakage, and enjoy my remaining bike life as long as possible in a safe manner.
