Honda CBR 125R chip tuning

szatan84

Hi I have a cbr125 for the past 2 years. The bike is great around town but its a nightmare on the motorway due to the power. I have been ofdered to chip this bike in poland bringing the power up to 28bhp. Does anyone know where I could get it chipped in Ireland?

Std the newest one makes under 13 hp, id be extremely suprised if you can buy a chip to over double its hp.

I think a full power Aprilia RS125 made about 25bhp at the wheel (claimed 33) so there's no way a 4 stroke will make that power without revving to about 18000rpm or adding a supercharger or something!
original CBR250 is only 45bhp with 18000rpm to play with

I was told 28. I just want ir to have more power if even 5bhp. Ita just such a liability on the motorway.

Buy a bigger capacity bike if you are doing lots of motorway work.
125cc -28hp is 224hp per litre.
Consider that most 1000cc superbikes make around 180hp in street trim you are asking for the impossible.

it might be worthwhile swapping out the front sprockets for a -1 one

apparently it lets the 6th 'overdrive' gear rev out further, as it doesnt have the power to do so in stock trim

I didnt do it as I didnt do enough motorway work, and I was worried about making the first gear even shorter (as it was very short stock) - this is all on an 04 cbr125 a few years back, so may have changed..

only thing to get any more realistic ponies out of it, is to get it bored out - but then for the costs, and possible insurance issues, it'd be more economical to just get an sv650 or the like

On a small bike like that even expensive upgrades are only gonna give you an extra 1-2hp. Keep your money and put it towards a bigger bike.

Agreed, even if it was to work as claimed, you'd be ringing it full throttle the whole time on the motorway.

Agreed, it already loud enough to make long journeys a pain. Ill just get a bigger bike then

You'll need an A2 or A licence or learner permit for over 125cc, if you only have A1 at the moment.
CBR125 is a good town bike (seen quite a few couriers on them lately) and good for beginners so should be easy to sell on.
