==Engine==
The engine was a [[air cooled]] single cylinder, four-stroke. A 56.5mm [[bore]] x 49.5mm [[stroke]] result in a [[displacement]] of just 124.0 cubic centimeters. Fuel was supplied via a overhead valves (ohv). 
 
==Drive==

==Chassis==
It came with a 2.75-18 front [[tire]] and a 90/90-18 rear tire. Stopping was achieved via single disc in the front and a expanding brake (drum brake) in the rear. The front suspension was a  31mm telescopic fork, 102mm axle travel while the rear was equipped with a dual dampers with 5-step adjustable spring preload, 80mm axle travel. The CG125 was fitted with a 3.57 Gallon (13.50 Liters) fuel tank. The bike weighed just 251.33 pounds (114.0 Kg). The wheelbase was 51.06 inches (1297 mm) long.

Over its lifetime, the CG125 has received numerous enhancements and tweaks:
* The electrics were upgraded from 6V to 12V

The CG125 is powered by a very fuel efficient 124cc single [[cylinder]] [[Four-stroke|4-stroke]] [[OHV]] [[engine]] that has changed little over the years. With careful use, it is quite capable of achieving more than 100[[Miles per gallon|mpg]], and over it's comparatively long history the CG has earned itself as a reputation as a "bullet proof" machine.
