Honda Super Cub 125 - Route des Grandes Alpes (part 6 of 7)

Part 6 of my 125cc journey: From Le Sauze (Barcelonette) to Valberg. Highlights today: Col de la Cayolle (2.327 m) and Parc National du Mercantour.
Bye the way: I'm going to upload the gpx tracks here soon. In case you also want to do the Route des Grandes Alpes trip. My gpx tracks will be 100% 125cc compatible, no need to worry about "will my bike really be capable enough.." I already did the worrying part for you ;-)
In case you've never heard of it before: The Route des Grandes Alpes is regarded as one of the most scenic motorcycle routes in Europe. I did the whole tour on a Honda Super Cub 125cc in summer 2023. Check out the playlist.

I think this is one of my favourite sections of the route too, the Mercantour National Park is so quiet and i love the way you criss cross over the river. It is slow going though and anyone wanting a faster route south might want to consider the Col De la Bonnette and rejoining around Saint-Sauveur-sur-Tinée

Excellent video thanks for sharing, the Cub is a beautiful bike.
It struggles on the hills you would probably not want to be on a main road, still it's amazing what you can do with 9 Hp, excellent for exploring the countryside.
I only recently got into motorcycling, currently on a 2007 Tmax 500, great for exploring and has all the power one could ever need even for hills and I love the storage under the seat, I would also love the Cub 125. I would never pay new price for a tmax though they are very over priced but I got mine for 1700 Euro. 80,000 kms.
I wish Honda would give the Cub a more traditional analogue clock with analogue fuel gauge and analogue clock, it would really make it look great, from the video it's impossible to see the speedo.

Europa ist schon schön. Das Gefühl von Freiheit, kenne ich auch - auf meiner Super Cub !
