Honda NXR-125 Commuter "comments"
Many have written me regarding the purchase of a Honda NXR 125 Commuter in Buenos Aires. I have no experience riding this bike.
If anyone has any comments that I might pass on to those who want to buy this bike new, have a custom made rack installed for their soft luggage, and tour Argentina, these comments would be greatly appreciated. Here are 2 videos and specs for the NXR-125 Commuter.

Need comments on NXR 125 Bros
If anyone can say anything good or bad about the Honda NXR 125 Bros it is appreciated here.... Good description and 2 YouTube videos in previous post.
I am swamped with requests for this bike for the purpose of tailing the DAKAR Rally (03jan -16jan more or less) and people want my opinion. I have no long term or touring experience with this bike. All say, minimum gear, and just want the hoot of following the DAKAR Rally for a couple days. Most have 3 weeks to "tour" and are willing to spend 1 week in Buenos Aires (tough work, but someone has to do it) for title , registration, insurance etc... Final Cost of the new Honda NXR 125 Bros is only $3,100.00 USD delivered plus about $150 USD for taxes, title registration and insurance. Dealer will buy back all NXR 125s if they have less than 12,000 K and normal wear and tear, or I will park this bike until your next tour or upgrade. Any thoughts on the Honda NXR 125 Bros welcome. xfiltrate Eat, Drink and Be careful |
