which is most reliable? want to buy a 125. speed doesn’t matter to me as much as reliability, don’t want it to break down on me or put a hole in my wallet. yz or cr???
A year old comment but whatever. These are the two most reliable 125's you can buy, typically you can't really go wrong with either, but there are always lemons with every brand. In the long run you'll probably get parts more easily for the YZ. Bought my 06 YZ125 back in 2013 and never did anything to it except replaced pistons whenever I was feeling like it, kept the air filter clean-ish and changed the transmission oil every now and then. I made that bike scream every time I was on it and it never let me down. Until in 2020, after 7 years of abuse, as I was riding it on a very soft terrain, the crankshaft bearing gave up. That bike was a tank for a 125, and that has been my experience with Yamahas in general, just bulletproof engineering with great performance.
Iv got 2016 crf250 front plastics on my 2000 just redrill holes in fender an zip tye through holes in bottom of number plate an original holes in fender👍
@@bigfloppa1488 yzs are better crs are bottom of the barrel mate, ktms shit on all of those 125s in terms of everything and the only time you’d argue a yz is better than an sx is if ur a fanboy of yamaha, only attraction to yzs are their cost that’s it, crs sucked my man, their motors were proper pieces of shit too
Love your bike bro back in the 70s YZ80 what do 90 mph on Blacktop the truth 2-stroke

Cr have crazy power.
its not the tool its the mechanic, 90 percent rider 10 percent bike.
would been cooler if the other bike is number 420
Yz no lemot 🤣
Yz is better
THATS NOT A CRF125 MAYBE A 250
YAMAHA!! whoopin ass since 55'
Not if that cr had a good rider on it
Jesus loves you
The CR needs a new driver asap
It's just buddies out riding. Who cares?
97 is the best year for the cr125 fight me
06
94
95 (mine)
agreed bulletproof motor on the 97s
I have a 98
I have a 01 cr125r and no other 125 keeps up with me lol..... miss the true 2 stroke .....
i will gladley smoke you with my 07 yz 125, beat a 99 cr 125 with a phat head. hondas have always been the runt of the pack
@@rapscallion3421 lmao kid your not beating any of my bikes they are all built and tuned by summit racing kick rocks
@@rapscallion3421 you’ll be every other cr except mine and that’s why your still gonna complain..
just by your comment i can already already tell i would be filling you up with dust and spitting rocks at you lol
A yz will beat a cr anyday with the right rider. 10+more hp stock. I own a cr and wouldn't change, but facts prove the YZ has always been faster
Wakanda forever
Cr has valve or not?
Cr are two strokes crf's are 4 stroke (valve)
RC Valve?
It has a power valve
Why he ride cr on low rpm? You cant drive a cr low rpm
hey im curious what numberplate and front fender do you have on the cr125 because i have a 01 and i want my bike to look like that.
Iv got 2016 crf250 front plastics on my 2000 just redrill holes in fender an zip tye through holes in bottom of number plate an original holes in fender👍
