  • Balanced Sport chassis geometry with proven OEM componentry.
  • Broad aftermarket tire and service parts availability for the 2009 CRP platform.

  • Exceeds the 35 kW (47.5 HP) EU A2 license limit in stock trim without a certified 35 kW restrictor kit.
  • As a 2009 model-year machine, buyers should inspect rubber brake lines, charging voltage, and suspension seals closely.
  • Stock suspension preload and damping should be dialed in for your specific rider weight and luggage load.

2009 CRP 125GP Technical Analysis, Chassis Review & Ownership Overview

Positioned in CRP's sport motorcycle lineup, the 2009 CRP 125GP utilizes a 125.5 cc (7.7 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, two-stroke layout designed for responsive throttle control. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 52 HP (38 kW), transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed transmission, a multiplate wet clutch in oil bath clutch. Internal cylinder geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 54.0 x 54.5 mm (2.1 x 2.1 inches), an 11.0:1 compression ratio, 0 valves per cylinder, fuel delivery managed via carburettor, Keihin. With a specific output of 414.3 HP per liter, the engine character places it firmly in high-revving supersport territory where top-end breathing and high-RPM overrun dominate.

Braking performance is delivered by single disc up front paired with single disc at the rear.

At 38 kW in standard trim, it exceeds the 35 kW A2 threshold directly but remains within the 70 kW (95 HP) ceiling eligible for a certified 35 kW A2 restrictor kit, or requires a full Class A license unrestricted. Routine workshop maintenance calls for recommended 2-stroke synthetic motorcycle oil (API TC / JASO FC/FD) engine oil (1.30 litres 2T reservoir / 0.80 L gearbox), NGK BR9EG / BR10EG spark plugs. Buyers cross-shopping the 2009 CRP 125GP in the Sport segment most frequently benchmark its horsepower, seat height, and curb weight against the Honda CB1000R (2012), Honda CB1000R (2010), Honda CB1000R C-ABS (2010).
