    Beautiful Vintage CR 125. I love their vintage color scheme the best. Beautiful blue seat, with gold rims, really makes the red colors stand out.

    In the early '90s a friend bought an '86 CR 125 that had a full pro circuit race engine. While blasting WFO down a wash on an '84 Cr 250, my friend on the 125 blew by me like I was standing still. Gotta love a little bike that can smoke the big bikes.

    One word, WOW!!. this thing looks incredible. The gold chain, and rims and the white lettered tires completely set it off. What a beauty!!

    Definitely an awesome bike . By this ( mid eighties ) all the Motocross bikes were killers . I myself was racing a Kawasaki being loyal to my old employer . But Honda finally got it all together and the guys who won were just damn good racers . Good time to be a Motocross racer . PK

    DEAR SANTA, PLEASE BRING ME THE 86 CR125 I can’t stop thinking about!

  • @4thdimensiontravels855
    @4thdimensiontravels855 Год назад +1

    Have an 87, first year with the rear disc. Eric Gorr from NSR Racing ported it back then. The powerband is razor thin, way way on top. Just when you think to yourself 'damn this is weak!' It comes on the pipe and the front end leaps toward the sky. Pro circuit pipe, boyesen reed block, wiseco piston, and its near mint besides the shrouds which has a couple white streaks and boot marks on the rear fender. And it has a N.O.S. clutch cover. (The dreaded coolant water pump corrosion) paid big$$$ for that piece of unobtainium!@@ !!! Great stuff Kem.0

    I had this exact same beautiful work of art cr and I kid you not I would ride mine from daylight to dark every day so I taped a 12 volt flashlight under the number plate so I could ride in the dark. I absolutely loved this bike.

  • @gregbishop3167

  • @angrytater2456
    @angrytater2456 4 месяца назад

    The entire Honda '86 lineup was amazing. The AMA(I think that's right) tightened rules before '86 that made the production bike have to resemble the works bike more than the rules allowed before that. The other manufacturers were complaining about the Honda works bikes being so trick and the fact that Honda had deep pockets made in an unfair advantage. Honda responded with an '86 production lineup that dominated from top to bottom. I just heard about this story, so forgive me if you have heard it before.

  • @smokinjoeb3926
    @smokinjoeb3926 Год назад +1

    Still haven't seen one like I had pro circuit everything. It ripped bored the carb to 36mm porting and head mods pc pipe n silencer suspension mods. Also had thier works replica swingarm was a good 1lb lighter tapered design axle adjuster bolts in front of the rear axle. Square tube aluminum subframe. I've seen the vrp stuff but it's not the same as the pc stuff. Pc like dg did away with the atac.

    Ken what piston brand do you prefer for your 125?

    • @jpesicka492
      @jpesicka492 Год назад +3

      I'll take that as Wiseco.

    • @jpesicka492
      @jpesicka492 Год назад +2

      @Anthony Petro some ppl don't like Wiseco and prefer Pro-X or Vertex. Wiseco is forged instead of cast so you HAVE to let the bike warm up good.
