View PageThe 2027 Honda CRF125F in Red is a confidence-building 125cc air-cooled, single-cylinder four-stroke trail bike designed to be easy to live with and fun to ride. With Programmed Fuel Injection (PGM-FI) and an electric starter, it’s set up for consistent starts and smooth, dependable power delivery. A four-speed transmission with a proven manual clutch keeps the controls familiar and teaches full-size off-road fundamentals. Honda backs it with a transferable, six-month included, limited warranty, with optional extended coverage available through a HondaCare Protection Plan.
A 125cc air-cooled single-cylinder four-stroke engine pairs with Programmed Fuel Injection (PGM-FI) using a 22mm throttle body for crisp, consistent fueling. Honda also notes the broad powerband and dependable performance, with fuel injection enhancing efficiency and helping reduce emissions versus carburetion. It’s a straightforward setup that’s well suited to riders who want a reliable trail bike that starts and runs cleanly in a wide range of conditions.
The CRF125F uses a 31mm fork with 6.7 inches of travel up front and a Pro-Link single-shock rear with 6.6 inches of travel to handle bumps and chop off-road. A twin-spar-type steel frame and steel swingarm are built to take the knocks that come with trail riding. With 10.3 inches of ground clearance and a 49.4-inch wheelbase, it’s sized to feel stable while still being manageable.
Push-button electric starting is designed to add minimal weight and make starting easier in all conditions. From there, a four-speed transmission and heavy-duty traditional manual clutch deliver the kind of control you’d expect from a full-sized off-road motorcycle, helping riders build real shifting and clutch skills. Details like a keyed ignition switch and half-waffle grips round out a practical, rider-focused package.
At the heart of the CRF125F is a 125cc air-cooled single-cylinder four-stroke with SOHC and two valves per cylinder, a 9.0:1 compression ratio, and a 52.4mm x 57.9mm bore and stroke. Honda’s PGM-FI fuel injection (22mm throttle body) is there to help the bike start readily in cold weather, enhance performance, improve fuel efficiency, and help reduce emissions compared to a carbureted setup. For families and riders who value low-fuss ownership, this combination targets dependable operation with simple, proven hardware.
A sealed battery supports the electric starter, and Honda also highlights the engine as reliable with a broad powerband—useful for building confidence as riders learn throttle control in varied trail conditions.
A steel twin-spar-type frame and steel swingarm form the backbone of the CRF125F, designed to handle the bumps and dings of off-road riding. Suspension is set up with a 31mm fork offering 6.7 inches of travel, and a Pro-Link single-shock rear with 6.6 inches of travel. The bike’s geometry includes a 27.5° rake and 3.7 inches of trail, and it rides on a 49.4-inch wheelbase.
For sizing and capability, the CRF125F lists 10.3 inches of ground clearance, a 30.9-inch seat height, and a 199-pound curb weight (including all standard equipment, required fluids and a full tank of fuel). Tires are 70/100-19 front and 90/100-16 rear.
Stopping power comes from a single 220mm front disc and a 95mm rear drum. Honda also notes the front rotor is drilled for lightness and improved wet-weather performance. The final drive is a chain setup (13T/49T), and the four-speed transmission is paired with a heavy-duty manual clutch for smooth shifting and full rider control.
Comfort and usability details matter on a trail bike, and Honda includes half-waffle-pattern grips along with tough, CRF-motocross-inspired bodywork designed to shrug off minor dings. A keyed ignition switch adds a simple layer of security. Fuel capacity is 1.0 gallon for trail loops and practice sessions.
Honda includes a transferable, six-month limited warranty with the CRF125F. If you want additional coverage, extended coverage is available with a HondaCare Protection Plan.
This listing is for the Red color option. The CRF125F is also offered in a Big Wheel version, which Honda describes as the same great bike but a better fit for taller riders, with larger wheels that provide a higher seat height and an additional 2 inches of ground clearance.
