When we have Twisted Development in the title of a story, you automatically expect a full-fledged, high-dollar race bike. Twisted Development (TD) is known for privateer power that can run with the factory bikes. If you want to race against the factory teams, Twisted Development is the go-to race shop; however, this test of a TD-built machine is a little different. We never thought of Twisted Development’s Jamie Ellis as being sentimental about the bikes he builds, but this bike was on the nostalgic side for this high-level engine performance company. We get it, though. The MXA wrecking crew is head over heels in love with old smokers, so we couldn’t resist riding Twisted Developments 2005 Honda CR125. The CR125 looked like a new-age machine with its Polisport restyled kit, new tires and shiny graphics, but on the track, the engine felt like a decade-old machine. That wasn’t a bad thing, because it was actually a decade-and-a-half-old machine. We never thought that a 15-year-old Honda CR125 was going to run with the 40-horsepower wonder 125s of today, because this was a project of love for a young kid to learn on and enjoy. The engine was incredibly fun. It didn’t offer much bottom, but the mid-to-top power held its own. We did some small fuel and jetting changes to get the bike running cleaner. After that, our testers had an absolute ball on it. The Factory Connection suspension valving and Honda chassis allowed the bike to handle like a champ. The light chassis allowed testers to put the front wheel anywhere they wanted with ease. The CR125 allowed riders to recover from mistakes fast, but in truth, it was hard to make mistakes on a bike with better handling than engine performance. The MXA gang didn’t want to stop riding this build for three reasons: (1) It was incredibly fun to ride. (2) Once we shut it off, it was going to go back into the storage locker for another 10 years. (3) We could ride through a tank of gas without getting tired. This bike is perfect for its intended purpose, which is to bring safety and a smile to a kid who loves riding.

Honda should put the CR 125 R back IN PRODUCTION!!! IT WOULD SELL LIKE CRAZY!!!!🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁👍👍👍

I’ll take one ☝🏼
I have an 05' that I raced as a kid that I'm about to rebuild. I haven't been on a big since 2014.
🔥👍 two stroke for ever.
2strokes all day 👊🏼🔥
Same
That ring popping was just waiting to happen.... I thought it and you said it.
If you really push those 125 engines in mud or uphills you are just on the cusp of mankinds technical limitations, until you arent....boom. Great video, backstory and badass rider....
Honda should make them god damn two strokes. My brother has a CR85 supermini (112cc) and I race a 05 CR125 and I really really, wanna send my other 05 to them and make it a 150cc.
I agree, they should bring em back 💯
Dropped a like before I even saw the video.
Love my Cr125!!
How tall are you
@@aidanmartinez8248 I am 6 ft+, purchased my 125 when I was 14 years old and like 5 ft 8 inches, Keeping the ole Honda because its a classic and so fun to ride!!
@@knolysjohnson7244 sounds pretty cool but I'm around 5,5 what bike would u recommend
@@aidanmartinez8248 If you are planning to ride motocross tracks I would look for a 125cc two stroke! You can ride that bike for a while as you grow and then probably switch up to a 250 next!!

Trying to find a good kx125, but where I live, you can’t find them anywhere
J4ckzz the same thing in Florida. I have a 05 but not for sale. Found one close by for 3 grand, in Florida last month or so, first one in a year. If your in Florida search Craigslist state wide
I'll tell u what they don't give the YZ 125s away and they aren't up for sale very long. 2 stroke back on the come up. Can't believe what Banshees are going for these days either
Sounds gorgeous

If the same bike and video had four stroke sound, would you still be watching at minute 8:00....hell no.
Mixed gas is never last...brappp
its missing the drive sprocket guard lol
I have been looking for a CR125 for a project build, well today I found a 2000 CR125 for $700 complete. Owner says it has been completely rebuilt, new top end and a new crank kit, but the main engine case is cracked. I have worked on alot of bikes in the past but have never split the cases on a bike. I am pretty mechanically inclined. I found a new set of cases, is this a hard fix or should I keep looking. Anyone on here could give me some advice, I would be very greatfull. Thanks
Does anyone know where I can find the electronic power valves for the 2004 cr125? My engine does not have the power valves in it for some reason
kinda like the worst track conditions to test tho.
they say it was fun to ride and it was safe, they said it like it was a bicycle compared to new ktms, but it produces only 3 hp less and they talk about it like it has 7hp. never trust mxmagazine boys.
Am I the only who's doesn't care for restyle kit?
yes
Original plastics look cooler to me
What bike do u recomend 250 class
Cr250 or yz250 2 strokes
Is Jamie related to Sean Ellington (murder nova), street outlaws?
Sorry but the restyle plastic kit is ugly I would rather have the original style plastic
I think it looks a lot better gives the bike a more sharp and clean look
Nah, looks sick to me. Wonder why no one makes them for the 05-08 CRF450?
It just makes it look like every other bike you see on the track. Kind of boring
Guys which enduro bike should i buy i want 125cc that is reliable
Yz125x or 250x
Whoa I’m early
So, a 6 year old has a nicer bike than me
I wish it had original plastics tho
I loose braincells when they shittalk old 2 strokes snd promote yamis and ktms like they are so much superior i mean they produce 3hp more stock only but they talk like its 10 hp difference
pretty sure that's a '04
Glen helen looks different
Wow this is so over done. All your project bikes are mid 2000s honda. How bout some 1980s hondas
r 80’s CRs? I agree, I love the 86-89 CRs but there probably aren’t that many still around or bikes that owners are willing to let go..trying to find parts would be a nightmare. Honda doesn’t make 2 stroke parts for those old CRs.
My avatar bike is for sale. 99YZ250 with a "big bore" kit with less that 4 hrs break in.
I looked at your comment and I thought it said you posted it 12 years ago not 12 minutes ago😂
