Honda had concentrated much of their competition efforts on road racing throughout the 1960s. In the early 70s they had realised that the off-road sports of motocross and enduro were growing and assuming greater importance in terms of potential sales, particularly in the important US market. Accordingly, more resources were ploughed into making them competitive. Launched in 1973, the CR125 and CR250 were intended to redress the balance between Honda and other Japanese or European competitors.

This machine is equipped with a box-section swinging arm, with lightweight plastic petrol tank, mudguards, and side panels. It has a liquid-cooled engine, disc brakes front and rear, and monoshock rear suspension. There are no documents and it will require some re-commissioning prior to further use. Whilst the engine turns, its mechanical condition is unknown, and it is sold strictly as viewed.
