Honda CT 125 Hunter Trail Cub

In 2019, at the Tokyo Motor Show Honda pulled the cover off of the CT125 Concept, a scrambled version of the Japanese moto marque’s Super Cub 125. And in 2020 Honda has now revealed that the concept is entering production for the 2021 model year as the Honda Trail 125, or the Honda Hunter Cub 125 in non-US markets.

The CT125 engine is an air-cooled four-stroke overhead cam 124cc Single with an automatic centrifugal clutch and semi-automatic four-speed transmission, similar to the Super Cub’s drive system. The Hunter Cub adopts a different air intake design, resulting in a bit less power than the Super Cub but higher low-rpm torque. Honda claims a peak output of 8.7 hp at 7000 rpm and 8.1 lb-ft. at 4500 rpm.

The CT125 shares much in common with the Super Cub C125, but with the chassis modified for better off-road use. The Hunter Cub’s front fork offers 4.3 inches of travel compared to the Super Cub’s 3.5 inches for better handling unpaved terrain. Further adding to its off-road capability are a high scrambler-style exhaust and a bash plate to protect the forward-pointing single cylinder. Honda claims 6.5 inches of ground clearance.

While the Super Cub uses a rear drum brake, the Hunter Cub has a disc brake. ABS does come standard on the CT125, but as with the Super Cub, it only operates on the front wheel.

Other differences from the Super Cub include a rear luggage rack, pillion footpegs (we assume an accessory passenger seat will mount to the rack), a kick starter (in addition to electric start), and a slightly larger fuel tank (1.4 gallons vs. the Super Cub’s 1.0 gallons). Honda claims a curb weight of 265 pounds, about 22 pounds heavier than the Super Cub.
