Since I'm injured, I'm going to buy an cr 125 around -00 to build from the ground up, and have as a fun bike and learn to keep the momentum on.
What's your best mods for the cr?
Have read around and fork-change, air stryker carb and air-boot (what model) is what I've come to conclusion about.
What fork should I get?
Maybe possible to mod an SSS on it?
I might change my coated/rg3 valved SFF fork on my crf 250, so maybe put that one on the cr?
Is the oem shock good enough with a revalve etc?
Engine wise, what should I do to make it tits? :D
Will probably run it on VP fuel.
Tips and help is greatly appreciated

Ok, here's my honest opinion....
It was too much shit going on. I chased jetting, tweaked spacing on the pipe flange and intake, tried different pipes, etc....
IF you have the time to play around with everything, more power to you. I wanted a daily driver so to speak, and just sold my top end and carb to another member. I'm going back to OEM and just riding the damn thing. If you want more power..... buy a 250.
Pile of crap in boxes (gonna change everything anyways, so why buy expensive)
Paid 300$
Got 6months with no riding, need something to do during this time..
Edit: looks like that is the way to go after some Google..
Cr/f 250 2004 have the same 47mm show a twin chamber fork, and from what I've read, it's a straight swap?
A guy nearby sell the forks for 150$
Cool, looks like fun. Take your time, be patient. Enjoy the process.
1. Cost. I would rather put the money into my 450.
2. Its a 125. No matter what its not going to be fast, just couldn't justify it.
3. Its a 02. Pre 98 CR125's were Bad ass, I like the AF 125's but the steelies have my heart.
4. I want to ride it, I want my friends to ride it. I built this bike to get beat on, hard. None of us are..light.
5. Resale. You never make your money back on mods so I decided to keep it to Pro Circuit exhaust and some fancy levers.
6. Its a Honda. The OEM stuff was pretty decent and doesn't need to be changed for my type of riding or skill level.
Cant wait to see what you come up with!!! Great price/starting point.
Pit Row
jeez... nothing I was trying to post was working... even at my weight, 225lbs, this bike is a blast.
Will get better pics of everything when I have collected it
For me, so far I have all new OEM internals in engine, suspension bearings, vforce reed cage, intake boot dremeled to match vforce port, 07 airbox and airboot, 2016 front end plastics, new cr other plastics, 13/53 gearing, tristar adjustable upper triple clamp.
Probably going to pick up better carb and not decided about suspension yet and head work.
