2027 Honda CRF125F overview

The 2027 Honda CRF125F is the standard-size version of Honda's midsize trail bike; the CRF125F Big Wheel is the taller one, with 19- and 16-inch wheels and a 30.9-inch seat. It has a fuel-injected, air-cooled 125cc single with a SOHC two-valve head, electric start with a backup kickstarter, and a four-speed gearbox with a manual clutch. The twin-spar steel frame carries a 31 mm fork, Pro-Link rear suspension, a 220 mm front disc and a 95 mm rear drum brake, on 17-inch front and 14-inch rear wheels. Mechanically the 2027 is the same as the 2019, when this generation was introduced.

Who it's for

New riders, younger riders and smaller adults who want a trail bike with a manual clutch and a low 29.1-inch seat for recreational off-road riding. Taller riders may fit the CRF125F Big Wheel better. It is for off-road use only, carries one rider, and has no lights.
