Positioned in Honda's sport motorcycle lineup, the 2014 Honda CBR 125R relies on a 124.7 cc (7.6 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke powerplant. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 13 HP (9.5 kW) while maximum torque reaches 10.6 Nm (7.8 lb-ft), transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 104.3 HP per liter, the engine character is reflecting a performance-oriented street tune that balances strong mid-range pull with an energetic top-end rush.

Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 1,070 mm (42.1 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry.
