I'm looking at a CR125....

Anyone have any experience with them?  Any gremlins to watch out for?

That's a high theft motorcycle.  Leave it where K3 can get at it, and it'll be gone! ;)

  Sweet, nice choice, '97 is a pretty good year for CRs. There really are not too many gremlins in 97s except for steering head and swing arm bearings. If the previous owner did not properly clean/grease you'll simply have to replace them. Not a bad idea anyway. A lightened flywheel will help keep the revs up w/o stalling and improve bottom end response. We sold a '95 CR500R that had a fork swap from a '96 preferred unit. Wish I'd never sold it. That bike rocked the US Forrest Service world. ;D

love the 2 smoke 125s for the light weight but I find that with hills and tight woods riding the diesels are a lot better and looking to replace my RM125 with a YZF250F or the RM-Z250 4 stroke.
Also for max performance the 2 smoke need to have rings replaced every 5-10 hours and piston every other ring change. For me that meant every weekend of riding the pistons needed to be replaced I was bad about it and stuck a power valve and ruined piston and cylinder. Kicker is the diesels are still so new they are more expensive than a 2 smoke whch can be found a few years older.
Other good thing about the smoker is easier starting but you can find MX diesels with electric start
