Engineered by Husqvarna for the enduro - offroad motorcycle segment, the 2005 Husqvarna WR 125 pairs a 125 cc (7.6 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, two-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 54.0 x 54.5 mm (2.1 x 2.1 inches) with a 12.5:1 compression ratio.
On the scales, the WR 125 measures 99.5 kg (219 lbs) wet (curb). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 970 mm (38.2 in) seat height — reflecting a long-travel chassis stance that favors ground clearance and off-pavement control, combined with a 1,465 mm (57.7 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 8.5-liter (2.2 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
