New 07 Cr125

[TxTechRedRider]

Some of you guys know my story of my 06 cr125 being stolen outta my storage space last year.  It was a tough deal to go through and
even tougher for my daughter who was learing to ride it and planned to race it someday.
Since then we have been saving our pennies and dimes.
So here it is saturday morning and nothing to do so we decided to go window shoping. First we visited the yamaha dealer
and he had two - two strokes on the floor, one was a 2010 Yz 125 for $6K something and the other was
a 2010 Yz250 for I think around $6999 both are beautiful bikes, he said they were rare and that he had to trade for them with
another dealership to get them.  Very nice guy.  We discussed two strokes and he said he liked them, I asked him if he had heard of that
144 kit and he said he had, but he also threw in that he had sold a four stroke this morning, ha ha.
After leaving there I decided, what the heck, lets go to the Honda dealership.  
We went in and was looking around at all the 4 jokes and low and behold, there it was, the 2007 cr125.  Its what's called an nos bike.
It was too much to bear and we asked about it and got it.
It does have some flaws on it but nothing we couldnt stand.
I grew up riding Honda's and never had any problems with them, guess I was lucky or so we will see.
On a side note, they have a nos Cr250 for sale if anyone is interested.
Pictures forthcoming.

First congratulations TxTech. Your daughter will be pleased 
Rideredmx2. I am a selfconfessed "Honda Hater".
Well that is a too strong title.
My "Dislike" of Honda stems from the "Honda Motor Corporation's" ingrained policy that 2 stroke are evil.
I have never figured out why a company can be so against a technoligy for nothing else but the personal whim of the boss.You have to remember this goes back to the 70's. Honda NEVER wanted to build 2 strokes but only did so to remain competitive with everyone else. Remember the failed NR500 ?.
Honda have built some magic 2 strokes over the years and have developed some interesting technoligy which they have sweept under the carpet.If they had let their engineers produce what they had designed i think we would have some neat 2 stroke road and dirt bikes.
Anyway don't take it personally.
I was reading the posts the other day that got out of hand. So i thought i would post this.

If you ride a dirt bike : Your good in my book
If you ride a Honda : Your good in my book. Has to be a 2 stroke of course 

So' I dont "hate" Honda motorbikes, only dislike the companies policy.
I still own the 2 Honda's i had as a kid 
I think this is the same attitude as the other "Honda Haters" on this site.
I personally just dont want to give them anymore of my money.

WOW!! I'm so very happy for you on the new machine!!

Stories like this warm the heart!

Really I understand this attitude... the big problem is that big red has some really nice machines... so for the two-stroke lovers your only choice is to buy used.

There is no reason to "hate" a company for their policies no matter how mis-guided it may seem.

It's simple actually... just don't buy any new products from that company... if you feel that strongly about it.

I agree John. Thats what i was trying to put across.
I dont want the Honda guys here thinking they are not welcome.
This sites all about 2 strokes right ? 
Hate is a strong word.
Anyway lets all just enjoy this site.

P.S Now if only i could get rid of the 4 Honda's in my fathers garage.  Just kidding

[ford832]

Pbbbfffttttt, no matter how you sugar coat it,Honda's flat out suck.I know this for a fact because my main riding buddy will ride nothing else-despite my endless words of wisdom on the matter
Seriously,congrats on the new bike TXtech.Now lets see some pics.

Congrats  on  the  rare find, I  picked  up a  06 cr125  for a  practice bike  recentlly. The  mod. race bike  is a 04 cr125, by  JM  racing  from  TX.  Check him out  he  builds  the  fastest  cr125,s  in the country, he  did  Josh Grants  cr125,s  for  L.L., helped  SRS  with  there  motor  program  when  Texan  Jeff  Dement  raced  the GP,s  on a cr125. Tara Gieger,s  04  cr125, I  have  1  of here  cylinders  as  a  spare backup, she  hole shot  most  races  against  250f,s. Chad  Johnson,s  team grean KX125,250. And  Ryan  Dungy,s  Rm125  that  won  the  L.L.  125 b mod. title. TTRR   the  chasis  is  the  best ever, fit feel, durablity  is  outstanding, the  jetting  is a  little  off, I  changed  the  pilot jet, main jet,airscrew, but  I,m  using  my  04 coil  with  an  icat, the  coil  might  be a  little  different.

I have an 07 CR250 that I'm getting fixed and will post pics soon. I'm just curious what "nos" means. Was the 125 and 250 new? Man, that would be an incredibly sweet deal. In fact, I'll bet they are getting hard to find new.

[JohnN]

NOS = New Old Stock

Or brand new never used.....

[Coop]

Take some pics already, I keep checking and getting disappointed LOL  .
