The full 2026 Honda ST125 Dax spec sheet below covers every technical detail, from suspension travel to tyre sizes.

2026 ST125 Dax - Pros & Cons

Strengths

  • Strong power output: With 9.2 hp @ 7000 rpm and 10.8 Nm @ 5000 rpm of torque on tap, the ST125 Dax is no slouch for its class.
  • Fuel injection: Fuel injection means consistent cold starts and clean throttle response without the fussiness of a carbureted setup.

Considerations

  • Modest fuel capacity: Range between stops is limited by the 3.8-litre tank - plan fuel stops accordingly on longer routes.
  • Chain final drive upkeep: Budget time for routine chain maintenance - it's cheap to replace but needs consistent attention to avoid premature sprocket wear.

Wear Points & Servicing Notes

Heat management in traffic

Because the ST125 Dax relies on airflow rather than a coolant jacket, expect noticeably more radiant heat at low speed and in traffic. It's inherent to air cooling, and ventilated gear largely offsets it.

Fuelling & injector care

The PGM-FI electronic fuel injection on the ST125 Dax needs little beyond good fuel and periodic use of an injector-cleaner additive - no jetting or float-bowl maintenance to worry about.

Brake disc and pad wear

Braking up front comes from Single 220 mm hydraulic disc with IMU-based ABS - solid stopping power, with disc and pad wear best checked on the same schedule as tyre changes.

Suspension condition on used examples

The ST125 Dax's suspension runs 31mm USD telescopic forks at the front. The rear uses Dual shocks. Fork-seal condition and rear linkage play are the two things worth checking before buying used.

Final drive maintenance

The ST125 Dax uses chain final drive, which is cheap to replace but needs regular cleaning, lubrication and tension checks to get a full service life out of the sprockets.

Frame & chassis check

Built around a Press backbone frame, the ST125 Dax's chassis is straightforward to inspect: look for corrosion, cracks or repair welds around stress points like the head-stock and swingarm mounts.

Low-speed handling

107 kg keeps the ST125 Dax easy to move around in tight spaces, car parks and on the stand alike.

ST125 Dax - Buying & Maintenance Guide

What to check before buying

Before handing over money for a used 2026 Honda ST125 Dax, cover the fundamentals: service book and oil change history, chain and sprocket wear, and any sign of oil weeping around the casings. Cold-starting it yourself tells you a lot - a healthy ST125 Dax should catch quickly and settle into a smooth idle.

Oil and filter changes

Nothing protects a ST125 Dax's engine like disciplined oil changes - stay on the manufacturer's schedule (roughly every 6,000 km or annually). Match the viscosity grade to what the owner's manual specifies, not what's cheapest.

Fuel system care

Fuel injection on the ST125 Dax needs little attention beyond decent fuel and an occasional system-cleaner additive. Anything left standing for three months or more should have its fuel drained and replaced before it varnishes the injectors.
