OVERVIEW
- The CR125R shares a lot with its CR250 big brother: multiple championships, state-of-the-art tech and, best of all, the knowledge that it has no equals when it comes to 125cc two-strokes. Could it be the mind-boggling power? The super-light weight? The tack-sharp handling? Or maybe all of the above? Why not throw your leg over one — and then decide for yourself.
