Honda CR 125 1996. I bought this bike around 2 months ago with a full engine rebuild off a mate, the state of it now is that it is in pieces on my workshop bench! The bike cost me £750 which to be fair wasn't a bad price, after riding the bike, I was not impressed with the bottom end power atall! There was not too much to say about the mid and top either. I rode the bike for a month with the intension of selling it very soon. Unfortunately this will now not happen for a while as after 3 rides it decided to seize. I am aware of the fact that 2 strokes do require regular engine rebuilds when ridden hard, but from a recent rebuild it should not require this after 3 soft rides! Overall I would not recommend this as I have been riding for many years and this has to be the worst that I have owned! Totally unimpressed with power and reliability!

ive been riding mx bikes from a very young age and the cr 125 1996 still surprises me on every ride .... this bike has no mercy and is capeable of alot more than people think even though it is a 125, usually i challange bigger bikes such as cr 250's and 250 f's and i continue to wiz by them Honestly the Cr is a very very quick bike and will quite possibly scare the life out of the majority of riders :)

i love this bike. i geuss i got lucky because it has never fouled a plug. i ride my cr atleast once a weekend and it runs great. the only thing i don't like is it has no bottom end power what so ever. overall this is a great bike and i will ride them for many more years.

Great bike when its running but ive only rode it once i didnt get to do alot on the bike because every time i went out it fouled a plug i managed to get about ten minutes ride out of a brand new plug anyone got any ideas of what this could be? all ideas will be great thanks.

bought my Honda CR125 125 model 3 months ago . bought it from a guy who told me it needed a piston and ring so i sent it to the local bike shop and got it done along with new chain and sproket new fork seals new fairings new control levers more or less everything but it was well worth it !!! my buddy and i hit the forestry every weekend and he has a yz . im alot heavier than he is and they seem to be pretty well matched so power or lack of it isnt an issue.

Honda CR125 is one of the best crosser. as old as they are it fit in to this day and age. good looking mashine!

The Honda CR125 is a great bike for intermediate riders, hardly needs maintenance, good for jumps, feels great through whoops, handles well, turns on a dime. I recommend you buy tube slime or a better tube, because it really punctures easily.

I got the Honda CR125 for my birthday and I have had no problems with it but now I am looking for a faster bike like a DR350 but never the less it is good bike and would recomend it for other people.

The Honda CR125 has quick response in throttle and handling.the most power out of a hole shot that ive ever had.very easy to maintain.can take alot of abuse.

Very fast and good for a beginner. Jumps well. Can't wheelie on it yet I haven't had it on tarmac so on dirt the wheel just spins. Handles like a feather, such a light feel to it. Crisp throttle response, as soon as you twist to full you have to change gear.

It is such a let down and I wish honda would make it as good as their cr250f which rips the track apart
if you're looking for a 125 get a yz 125 or a ktm 125.

Today i'm actually re assembling it after rebuilding the entire bike. Powdercoating frame and spring, painted the shock, New rims (original hubs), new plastics, graphics, porting, polishing, shaved head, carbon fibre reeds, carburettor, new tyres, etc. The new 125's have around 38 flywheel hp. Mine has 45. which is a huge difference. The bike isn't standard at all so it's hard to judge on the bike. but even when it was standard it did mono's in every gear.
This bike has a lot of potential if you're looking to spend money and time on it.
But beware not many people care about a 13 year old bike so it's normally thrashed. But if you find a good one. it will be worth it.

Wicked bike, looks good, rides good, fells good, and is reasonably good for the wallet.

It will go good through the turns nice exhaust system and over all a pretty good bike

I love the Honda CR125 and have spent a mini fortune on doing it up to make sure she looks as good as she rides. I have rode it for 3 years now and have crashed many times but the repairs and fitting are easy and cheap to do.

I think you mis interpreted the power of these beasts. Admittidly mine broke a hell of a lot but it had bags of power!
