Honda revealed its 2014 CRF125F. For the new year the motorcycle has received a few style modifications, a taller seat and bigger wheels (19" front and 16" rear). It will be available at your local dealer from September 2013.

The bike is built around an air-cooled, single-cylinder, four-stroke, SOHC, two-valve engine with a displacement of 124.9cc. The engine is brought to life by an electric starter and is mated on a 4-speed manual gearbox which is perfectly suited for the needs of an off road motorcycle.

The motorcycle’s backbone is represented by a sturdy steel frame that rolls on a Pro-Link rear suspension and 31mm telescopic forks.

The stopping power is handled by a 220mm front disc brake paired with a rear drum.

The 2014 Honda CRF125F is offered with a starting price of $2,799 and comes with a six months warranty.

Overview

A New Generation Of Bike For A New Generation Of Riders.

Availability: September, 2013. Honda’s all-new CRF125F is going to be a great choice for a wide range of riders. Sized between our CRF110 and CRF125F Big Wheel, you’ll find it’s perfect for young riders, and smaller adults who just want to get out on the trails and have fun. There’s even a big-wheel version for taller riders. Loaded with features, we’re especially proud of its reliability (nothing can match a Honda for that), so you get to concentrate on having a good time rather than fussing with a temperamental machine. Rugged, simple and easy to maintain, it offers styling cues that match our CRF450R and CRF250R motocross bikes. Its electric starter makes it easy to get underway, while a four-speed transmission gives you all the control of a full-sized bike.

Electric Starter.

Turn a key, push a button—that’s all it takes to get the new CRF125F going. Add in a generous dose of Honda reliability and you’ll find the CRF125F is super easy to own.

Sized Right For Fun.

With its 125cc single-overhead-cam engine, air-cooled and four-speed transmission, the new CRF125F will fit a wide range of riders. It has enough power for teens and small adults without being intimidating for younger riders.

Stopping Power.

Just because it’s a small bike doesn’t mean we scrimped on the details—just the opposite, in fact: The CRF125F’s front disc brake is a perfect example. It’s a big-bike feature that’s pure Honda.
