info

First announced in 1974, the CR125 Elsinore made an immediate impact in the Moto-cross world. Honda had carved their reputation in road racing with a series of fabulously exotic four stroke machinery, and had generally come out against two strokes, especially as the company founder detested them!

So it was something of a surprise when Honda got it absolutely right at their first attempt with the now legendary Elsinore!

The CR125 of today is of course a very different animal, but still is up there with the best that Yamaha or Suzuki can throw at it, the 2007 model weighing in at less than 90kg this incredibly fast and competitive machine, ask anyone who has ridden one, will providing the rider has the skill, win races at all levels.
