I won the over 30 expert on a 1989 cr125 beat 450 and 250s that day I just didn’t get tired was a blast
MX is 90% rider, but it feels 100% awesome passing 450s on a 125!!

When I was a little kid this bike was a beast in my eyes, my dad considered it a dangerous MX bike and I should only be interested in air cooled trail bikes. To this day I still want a 80’s CR125 just to prove I can ride it and not die haha
Well, atleast your Dad meant well! I didn't have any motorcycle as a kid.
He’s dead now
I had this bike. Great bike. I added the 87 head to it for better power. This bike has a 89 seat cover on it and the "pro link" sticker is 87. The 89 125 had conventional forks the 250 had upside down forks.
Had the same 88 cr 125 when I raced in 1991. Good to hear that same noise once again. Fun and scary times 👌😎
I also had a 1988 CR125R. It was my last bike. I stopped racing when I broke my hip at Red Bud crash landing on Larocco’s Leap.
125's always sound the best. 💯
500's sound the best.

I'd take this over any 4 stroke🔥🔥
Ive been saying for years and years that these late 80's and 90's motocross&enduro bikes were BY FAR the best looking. Dirtbikes used to look SO MUCH better whith those slightly curved rear fenders and proper "curves". Manufacturers used to have unique and cool looking bikes of their own.Nowdays those ktm and husqvarnas etc. you see EVERYONE riding look like the same bike with those matching, pointy rear fenders and straight lines/narrow shapes everywhere. Pretty much only the colors differ slightly these days and its a shame. The previous designers used to actually DESIGN something cool and unique instead of making carbon copies. dont get me wrong I'm not saying these new bikes are bad looking but they have been making them look like that same bike for ages. :D Nice video and even more awesome is that beatiful bike being ridden properly!
I had a 1989 CR 125R was so fun :)
ahhh brings back memories////1988///I had the 1988 cr80r my dad bought me in 1989 used///loved that little bike////thanks again dad love ya
@Barry McCokiner i agree my 1988 cr80r would actually keep up to my buddy's 1987 yz125///those honda 80s in the late 1980s were extremely powerful and fast
"Holy flash back to 1988 batman"...you my friend have a way with words 😂
Another video saved to my “Sr. On the pipe” playlist.
Honda quality is actually insane. Have had my 1994 cr125 for 4 years and it stopped running the week after I got it. THEN IT GOT STOLEN and we somehow managed to get it back. Now we just put a coil on there and it runs like it’s brand new
That was my intro to bike riding back in the mid 90s. My cousins in Mexico had a CR125 and when I went to visit I’d ride all over on that thing. Good times.
Love the smell of 2stroke
Can't beat Honda 125's..super quick..super comfortable and they handle like a champ..some dude is gonna be a happy camper..you guys kick ass all day long..thank you ken!!!
I miss my 1988 Honda CR125, man you never forget that sound! *That seat cover is for a 1989 CR... mine had “HONDA” on it. Just think that bike is 32 years old!
I also had a 1988 CR125R. It was my last bike. I stopped racing when I broke my hip at Red Bud crash landing on Larocco’s Leap.
Wow, another super nice piece. Nothing like the scream of a 2-stroke 125!!
"Killer Kenny Kaplan" showing the 125's who's BOSS, again... 👍🇺🇸👍
I have an 89 that is identical to that........love it........... I think you guys would love it it's in such nice shape........
Had this bike when I was 15 years old back in 1995. It was a screamer and I’m looking to buy another one to take me back!
Ken has such great riding posture never lets the bikes control him large and in charge
Wow time machine. I remember the day my local dealer put this on the floor. Lots of people didn't like the solid red but I loved it. A true red rocket. Absolute wheelie machine.
Wow i had a 89 cr 125 when i was a teenager super awesome bike had to sell it to buy my first truck ride red for ever that bike was so killer used to ride it in the desert almost every other weekend wow memories!
One of my old riding buddies has a 1987 CR125 , it was reached when he got it several years back ,he brought back to very good condition and actually maintained it as a rider for quite a while . She sleeping now in storage , sweet bike .
Love to watch sr. Blast around brings a smile everytime
Love that year and 1989 CR Looks..I remember when my cousin parents bought him a brand new 1989 Honda CR 80, when I was 15 in high school. That was one sexy and fast bike, stock out of the crate. Definitely full banana sandwich in this video!
So cool! My dad used to have an 87 cr125 and 89 cr250. Wish he still had them
love the CR series from the minis to max 500. great vid, guys
That’s a kickass bike you got there..Aa true-ripppa!
That baby rips. Wow you can really hear it pull. I had an 87. I didn't like the 88's at first but they've grown on me.
1988 CR the best one ever!!
🇧🇷 Si um dia eu fosse para os Estados Unidos, fazer turismo, o primeiro lugar seria a KAPLAN AMÉRICA! 🇧🇷🙉👌
That bike is sick that back wheel just spins and spins music to the ears two wheel chain saw Love it 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
I had an 87 cr125 back in the day, they definitely are rippers!
Oh yes, I want one of those.
Damn I had that same bike. Brings back memories
You made the 125 look faster than the 400 and 500
Bought my new in 1988. Still got it.
Thanks for the video.
Made my day!
That's so perfect wish I could find a vintage like that to restore
My favorite year for honda was 86 and 88.
That's the bike I have! Great bike! Really fun to open it up because it's got enough power to rip but still open it up in smaller spaces. Just make sure not to put water in the radiator because I had to replace my whole right side engine cover because it was completely corroded.
Damn you , this makes me want to ignore every physical problem I have and just rip n shred for one last time. Ya know im still up for adoption. Who doesn't need a 56 y/o adopted son eatin all ur cereal and sitting on ur bikes all day. Seriously ty for letting me relive my past and live vicariously thru u and jr.
88 and 89 my favorite years for the Honda CR 2 Smokes 👍
Gorgeous bike
Love that shade of red.
a 125 wrung out is one of the best sounds in the world!
you hit the nail on the head ken
its not the horse . its only as good as its jockey
HEY KEN , YOUR AWSOME ON A Mc NASTY BROTHER , BRILLIANT STUFF .😁👌👍
Wow absolutely awesome as I had one of these from new when I was a young 17 year old racer awesome bike 👍
88 was the hardest hitting 125 Honda ever produced
Damn it man, this is the best flashback ever!
Every bike is jetted perfectly 👌
Dude I didn’t even realize how knew this video was let’s fucking go!!!
Had an 89 CR125R when I was 14. I could only reach the ground with one foot on the ground and the other on the peg. Was so much fun in the sand compared to the XR 100 it replaced 😂
Minha primeira moto MX... Lindo ronco, inesquecível!
love it!!
My 89 CR125 had the same conventional forks... i think only the 250 went upside down for 89. ...90 onward was all upside down from memory
The 88's had awesome shock clearance probably the last model that had a lot of cr class.
It's like beautiful music
2-Stroke Power. Look at the Bikes from Today. What a disgrace :-)
@Lex Riordan love that new Honda 450 old school colors. Coming from a Yamaha family 40 + years
I have exactly the same bike.Legendary
My favorite size 2 stroke bike, 125 cc, i prefer them over a 500 or a 250 or pretty much anything, love them little rippers
Lovely bike
Great memories this bike brings back.
How’s your daughter adjusting to Alabama? Guessing Birmingham possibly?
She’s a rippaah,😆thanks guys!
Man, y'all need to be closer to me!
Happy Honda Days
Ken your insane lol I love it
Nice video as always. My only comment is, is it an '88? Because it's got an '89 seat cover. An '88 has the HONDA printed on both sides of the seat cover. Never the less, the CR125s' really are the best 125s' out there. Thanks and keep it up.
That’s my first 125 when I was 16. I used to hate the ATAC system. Otherwise great bike.
Where can I get info on the 1988 cr 125? Like how often to change the trans oil, what grade of gas to mix the 2T oil with, type of coolant?
I can rev that bike all day 💯👌
Man Ken the 500 fits you better😁
Look out!!
Has that same buzz my 250r has. Is that the impeller?
Just sold my 88 CR250
Doing an 87 here soon that i been hoarding
Had same year make in 2000, bored sleeve out myself .080 over, I was 180# at the time and would pass newer 125s going up the hills at budds creek. Land smooth and the forks are fine for the weekend slouch. I still look for it like stalking an x girlfriend. bet the thing is still making fun somewhere.
Does it still have the magnesium side cases ? The water pump is a disaster .
I just recently acquired one. Where can i get parts?!
Hey Kaplan America I got a Cr1988 and it won't go high Rpm Do You know what Could Be making it Do that,the guy that had it before me hillclamed it
Sweet one two five !!!!

Gonna try an bid on 88 for Vintage 👍, chase around my ole man on # 43 Maico !
What a Nasty Sounding Bike, You should do a Rewiew of the 2000 Suzuki RM125 Travis Pastrana Designs Factory Bike.
Travis has that bike in his barn.
@@HWG-wm8ld he did
