I own a 00 cr125. It’s an absolute machine. Front end is a bit harsh, but the rear end is like a cloud. I absolutely love my 00
same
I heard u can do a newer crf 250f fork, forgot what year.
Man, I’m looking at buying a cr125 year 2000. Decided to do some research, 5 minutes in I have all the info someone could ever need about a new design year etc. Great work… keep making these and I think your channel will continue to grow! Thank you!
Thanks!
My buddy had an '01 CR125 it was a little slower than my 1999 YZ125 but I thought it cornered really good and was blown away by hondas fit and finish. At the time I hadnt realized how high quality Hondas actually were
In 1983 I think it was, I worked at a Honda/Yamaha shop. The Honda Motocross bikes were much much better than the Yamahas.
love your stuff ..keep it coming....
Thanks, will do!
I’ve owned my 00 CR125 since 2002. What I’m scratching my head on is my suspension is all Showa and I never changed it. Also yes damn near bullet proof. I just did my first bottom end on it. Got 24 years outta it and raced pretty hard. Also, I think I’ve put 1 set of fork seals in ever. I blow them out on my 2019 CRF 450 at least once a season.
My 2000 cr 125r has Showa forks and a Showa rear shock...all stock.
I'd love to hear and see the 2000 RM125 on your channel. There isn't a lot about this bike online. Love your channel. ❤
Absolutely love your videos. Would like to see a third gen cr125/250 video
Thanks. I will be doing one for sure
Love mine , keeps up with the new bikes
got the 01... awesome motor.
Awesome video thanks.
Glad you liked it!
Had a 98 cr 125 with a 97 cr 250 air Boot and box with a port and polish boyesen power reeds and a 95 bottom end with a 6 speed it was one of the funnest bike I've had a rode a stock 98 and couldn't believe how slow it was also have a nice built 97 cr 250
Love your vids dude! If I could suggest a topic- the 1996-7 Suzuki RMs. It was an interesting period with Jeremy McGrath finally leaving Honda for Suzuki and Roger Decoster becoming the team leader. Even the rm80 got a new rear fender!!! I was in high school and couldn't buy those bikes but I read the magazines.
I had a new RM125 and RM250 in 1996 and loved them. I will be doing videos on both for sure.
Great content! Please do one on the 95-97 cr125s!
I will be doing one for sure
they started the aluminium frames in 97 for both 125 and 250
98 for 125 not 97
absolutely love these reviews! how about an 04, 05 RM250?
I had a 2006 RM250 RC Championship Edition myself. I will definitely be doing a review of these RMs
Hope u have a great day bro
You too
We need another vintage magazine recap
Back in 96 I bought a YZ125 from a Canandian national pro rider. He was sponsored by Yamaha Canada so the bike was tricked right out. At the time I also had a 89 CR125 and a buddy had a 91 CR...My YZ was head and shoulders above...Amazing bike
Do a video on '01 CR250
Will do
Also had the 98 cr 250 and 98 xr 400 both great bikes
Great pair
My cousin had a 97 cr125, I wanted a 1998 yz but they were sold out. I got a large craftsman toolbox free with my 98 cr125.
My cousin would always beat me play riding but I figured it was a lack of skill on my part. We swapped bikes the second time I rode with him. My bike sucked. I was so bummed.
I had pro-action do the suspension and had the motor done. It was competitive.
In 2000, I rode the yz that won the b class championship. Motor and suspension by pro circuit. That bike was so easy to ride. It went wherever I wanted, the track bumps disappeared. No vibration like mine. The motor had more power everywhere. I mean full bottom to overrev, the yz was better.
I gave myself credit for staying top five with such a turd.
Should do a kx250 gen cause in 05 the kx250 was with out a doubt the best kx250 there ever was so many changes to the engine compared to 04 and 03, 02 and exc heaps of low end, bite hard in mid and bye bye with top... love ya videos mannn you know your stuff.. hope u do a kx one
I had a 2006 KX250 myself. i will definitely be doing a review
Love ya videos mann they make my day
Ps when i said the best bike i ment the best engine and if you want to look at something about the 05 look up two stroke Tuesday
Then search kx250 2005 you know the go
When the aluminum frame was introduced, Honda also stopped contingency money. For two years you saw Zero Honda's at California races. The frame was too stiff and there seemed to be power issues. A friend won one in 1998 at a CMA, Arron Pipes contest. He sold it just like that. Bought a Yamaha
Again, awesome content Blaze! Your in depth look into the smallest details of these machines impresses me. I was wondering if you could do a look into everything 90's in motocross, to the crazy colour combinations in riding gear and bikes to those amazing Team Tuff bikes that we the rage in the nearly 90's. Oh and don't forget some of those Team Rad 'n' Bad posters! Keep up the great content Blaze.
Another great vid! I remember reading somewhere that when they switched to the aluminum frame and the 5-speed they had problems with some ghost shifting and the triple clamps would get stuck on the frame when turned to the stops. It was a great looking bike tho.
I rode one all day yesterday, funny you say ghost shifting cause I was thinking that I swear it grabbed a couple gears a couple times…. Must be some truth to it
I have both a 99 yz 125 and a 99 cr 125. You are spot on with the fact that the cr is an absolute turd compared to the yz, but with some minor mods the cr will pace and sometimes even pass my yz. Right now my cr is blown up so i haven't had the chance to ride them back to back, but the cr has absolutely no midrange and takes a lot of clutch to get going if you aren't already holding it wide through a corner. My track has a few technical corners and the yz will just rip right through them because it has so much midrange. You always need to be shifting the yz, but the cr will rev forever.
My experience as well my track is very tight and hilly and it was so hard to ride there
Seen a pro guy back in the day go from Yamaha to one of these. He def did better on the YZ. Butt he KTM 125 at the time was emerging with all that power
Great job!
Thank you! Cheers!
Who were the team Honda 125 riders in 2000? I have one and would like put tribute # on it.
Awesome as usual, any chance you could do the 86 CR Line which was in my opinion the most dominant year of CR lines
I loved the look when they came out but my 87 rm 125 in a straight drag race would leave it.behind and the 87 is.not.widly revered
Yoooo
Best quote of this video was “keep the filter clean and change the top end and it’s bullet proof” this bike can take so much abuse it’s unreal
Hell ya 🇨🇦🤙🏻🇨🇦
bro my 2000 cr125 was running pretty damn good even with rod knock
Honda, should stick to making cars and lawn mowers, there motocross bikes looks a million dollars, but they generally are nothing but good looking.
Lmao
