Honda RS125R- The Most Powerful 125cc racer?

[@nickrider5220]

Brings back so many memories ! The 125s and 250s were always really loud at the GPs compared with the 500s, mainly because they were spinning so hard, so often - the noise, the smell !! Great stuff.

[@thebikecrafter8128]

little did i know 500 use big bang firing order so the sound is not as loud compared to 125 and 250 cc and they also have higher RPM and screamer in 250

[@arthurdunga345]

i agree they should have never got rid of the 125 2stroke was always great racing i remember seeing Casey Stoner on one at mallory BSB

[@Team-fabulous]

The 2 strokes are soooooo much fun to ride...

[@johndeere1951a]

My 1978 MT125R was my favorite race bike. Original crankshaft from 1978 to 1999! Best quality bang for yer buck. 👍🏁🇺🇲

[@C_Dana]

Love the corner speed and quick revving of the RS125R motor. I'd have a grin too riding one of those.....but age and weight have caught up with me. I envy you!

[@motomx2065]

I love that 2 stroke sound.

[@davidrenz2620]

It’s good to see the last 125 pole sitter back on a 125.still have mine and still ride it on a few classic bike trackdays . It’s great to ride a bike with mechanical grip instead of electric controlled grip. Be good to see a bit more under the fairing in the video for those who don’t own one

[@paulscountry456]

Those are so light and to get that speed from a 125 , wow sounds wicked too,you would think a tiny rider like Pedrosa to exploit that as those motors were tiny to pull a medium sized man .Dunlop hit over 130 on those.

[@SPOOKSTR]

I still race one. Mad fun.

[@CliffJones-jw5ww]

Beautiful machine share there's a lad from Australia has made one road legal

[@paulprescott7913]

That sounds sweet.

[@Freehand]

Awesome Vid

[@chrisstephens6194]

I have always fancied a go on one but being 14 stone could be a problem

[@seshelbow336]

I was 18/19 stone when I had my Aprillia RS125 96 model. Still showed 110mph on the clock…..didn’t feel to big for it, but then again I’d just come from an AR50

[@raabrssimports51]

I am about 195 lbs and I still race my Honda rs125 with no issues what so ever.

[@alberto3874]

amazing!! what year is this model ?? 👍

[@adamroberts74]

Love the two-strokes! Ever ride a 250?

[@petrolrevolt]

We’ll certainly be looking to do a 250 group, TZR / RGV and try to assemble a couple of the dedicated race bikes.

[@trianedtog0417]

​@@petrolrevoltdo a 125 road bike shoot out 2 stroke do big numbers

[@sigma7568]

2 strokes! ✊

Bukan nya Aprilia RS 125? Emang ada Honda RS 125?

[@andrewwalker2950]

Mega ❤🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻💨💨💨

[@cristianr3712]

Aprilia RSA 125 was the most powerful, the Honda was better at corners though.

[@alfred3844]

I am not so interested to see the portrait of the man, I would like to see the bike.

[@vijaykorvekar1009]

hey can anyone provide me a 3d cad model of this bikes frame and fairing

[@Daniel_Martin152]

60hp from an NX4? No, that’s never happened. Most powerful (per litre) 2t to date is Aprilia RSA 125 and that made 55hp

[@cristianr3712]

Almost right, according to Jan Thiel himself.... 54HP to the output shaft and 58HP to the crankshaft, and the fastest one was the 2007 version.

[@dannywebbracing9918]

You are correct sorry I couldn’t remember the exact HP of my 2008 / 2009 bikes but these Aprilia 125cc are amazing motorcycle and I’m so happy I got to spend some years racing them

[@CJRSBK]

I was thinking same 60hp from a 125 😂😂😂

[@vijaykorvekar1009]

Top speed

[@nikhilerigila8175]

Top speed?

[@robertomartinezmartin7545]

240 km/h.

[@grtGdyrydgf]

รถสูตรrs125แรงจริงๆ

[@Skynet4444]

Sounds like my old RD

[@mohba01]

60 horsepower honda rs125.. LoL

[@cristianr3712]

Yeah not true, the Aprilia RSA 125 got to 58HP which was the fastest 125GP bike.

[@mohba01]

@@cristianr3712 the rs125 nx4 makes 45 hp at the wheel. The Aprilia was indeed the fastest in the class. The OP has clearly mistaken it for the 4 strokes moto3 class

[@cristianr3712]

@@mohba01 Very true, would love to see what could have been achieved with 10 more years of development on the 125GPs.

[@mohba01]

@@cristianr3712 exactly my thoughts mate. I still own and ride a lot of 2 strokes. Used to race them back in the 90s and still own a lot of my race bikes from back in the days.

[@cristianr3712]

@@mohba01 Very lucky, enjoy them, not everyone has that pleasure, if you can upload videos riding them... That would be great, specially getting them to high rpms where they sound the best, maybe even set up races between them since you have several. Would be greatly appreciated and YT might pay for it.
