The Appeal

The Honda SL 125 is a beloved dual-sport motorcycle from the early 1970s that balanced on-road practicality with off-road capability. With its lightweight frame, reliable engine, and rugged styling, it became a popular choice for young riders in particular, since 125cc bikes are used by learners in many countries.

A well-known historic Honda dealer has fully restored this 1972 particular example. The comprehensive restoration included both mechanical components and a fresh paint job, resulting in a motorcycle that presents beautifully and reportedly rides very well.
