The only OE service parts are likely to be the air filter...
Brake pads i would prefer to use EBC... Sparks are NGK...
And oil to spec, so Castrol 10w30 Semi-synth should fit the bill..
Rear TX oil, i changed yesterday as this is not done at the 600mile - strange as you would think you would want to get out any initial metal fillings, rather than wait 2 yers, the oil seemed a bit gold / bronze shimmery. Dealer said they use 10w40 in the TX, so used the Halfords 10w40 gear oil i use in the yam 400... drained and topped up till the oil comes out the level of the fill hole... hope thars correct as it doesnt state how in the owners manual, but seems correct based on the older SH's according to you tube...
Need to find out what the valve clearances are for the '13 eSP Engined SH125
Real shame that not even Honda will sell a workshop manual, the haines manual is up to '09
Anyone with some proper service info, documents or hard fact - what you do is also most welcome, but nice to know the difference between specification and speculation...

with the tx oil thats the way i did it on the pcx 150 at 300 miles.. i used http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/261954634086? ... EBIDX%3AIT ipone semi 10w30 as this is £6.08 delivered, and prob just as good, just mentioning as the castrol is dearer and the miles you do, it wont be in the scoot long :D
anyways could only find the tube vid for the 2010


not had the chance to see if owt on http://www.shcooter.com/forum/viewtopic ... 3&start=20 or their forum site

according to this site the 01 sh125 and the 07 version has the same tolerance and they can be between Valve Clearance Cold - Inlet :0.14 - 0.18 mm Valve Clearance Cold - Exhaust :0.23 - 0.27 mm
yet i would email honda uk im sure some one will spill the beans :D Final Drive grade:SAE 10W/30 :roll: http://www.motorbikespecs.net/index.dyn ... make=Honda

i used a cross ref for me new ride to try find out what gear oil and for most rides it tends to be the same as you stick in the engine http://lubematch.shell.co.uk/gb/en_GB/b ... otorcycles

crappy manual i got says one thing 80/90 gear oil and the dealer said 10w 30 same as engine :!: and my pcx manual never said which one also for the final drive , the yam majesty says the same as engine so thats what im going to use.. have the scoots stopped using gear oil80/90 :?:
