Positioned in Honda's naked motorcycle lineup, the 2025 Honda CB 125F features a 123.9 cc air cooled-cooled four stroke, single cylinder, ohc, 2 valves configuration. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 10.7 HP (8 kW) at 7,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 10.9 Nm at 6,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 5 speed gearbox and chain (428 sealed) final drive. With a specific output of 86.4 HP per liter and a 1,500 rpm working window between peak torque (6,000 rpm) and peak power (7,500 rpm), the engine character is indicating a tractable, stress-free state of tune focused on everyday usability and broad torque delivery.
On the scales, the CB 125F measures 117 kg (258 lbs) wet (curb), translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.09 HP/kg (10.93 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 790 mm (31.1 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,285 mm (50.6 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 11-liter (2.9 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
