At the heart of the 2016 Honda CRF125FB cross - motocross motorcycle, Honda pairs a 124.9 cc (7.6 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 8.9 HP (6.5 kW) at 7,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 10.2 Nm (7.5 lb-ft) at 4,500 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 4-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 71.3 HP per liter and a 3,000 rpm working window between peak torque (4,500 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 CRF125FB measures 89 kg (196 lbs) wet (curb), translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.1 HP/kg (10 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 785 mm (30.9 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,255 mm (49.4 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 4.3-liter (1.1 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
