Title: 2012 Huskys, a return of the CR125
Post by: burn1986 on August 29, 2011, 01:24:30 PM

MXA did a report on the 2012 Husky lineup (http://www.motocrossactionmag.com/Main/News/FIRST-LOOK-2012-HUSQVARNA-MOTORCYCLES-14-DIFFERENT-8216.aspx (http://www.motocrossactionmag.com/Main/News/FIRST-LOOK-2012-HUSQVARNA-MOTORCYCLES-14-DIFFERENT-8216.aspx)). Included in this lineup is the CR125 and a WR125.

Each of these come with a 144cc bolt on kit included for free, with a cost of $5999 for the bike. While I love the 144s, it is good to see a return to the 125.

How cool would it be to see a shootout that included these:

Lots of room to change the sparkplug on the CR/WR 125. ;D

In Aussie you can buy the Husky XC125 for $5600.
The XC is the CR with a head light. Not the full WR.
Here we pay $9990 ?
I dont get the price difference.
Still , at 10K with another barrel and piston it is still cheaper then a YZ.

I would say the YZ has the best looking front fender. Because that is what is really important about a 125. Of course, the TM fender isn't too bad either.

I have to give the nod to TM in the fender department.  :D
