One thing I noticed was when I let my friends ride my 1987 Honda CR125 they all said that it felt fast and hit hard. Those same friends said that the 1988 Honda CR125 felt slow. The motor just turned over with more torque in my eyes instead of more "zap" of the 1987.
After getting my 1988 Honda CR125 ported and the head work done via an Motocross Action Magazine article it felt more like the 1987 and I didn't like it as much with the port work and head work and sold it 2 weeks after spending all of that money getting the work done.

and yeah, other than the deeper red color, I don't believe there are any differences in the 88' frame from the 87'.
Regarding frames, I understand the 89's are different to accommodate a different shock. But share the same engine and not much else. Maybe someone can confirm.
Definitely not the same frame. Thanks for the article Tony Blazier

You can just make out the gusset behind the brake pedal return spring.
