Honda CB125F vs KTM 250 EXC-F

The Honda CB125F (2025) and the KTM 250 EXC-F (2025) are compared with the same Moto Kıyas physics model under identical conditions: flat dry asphalt, no wind, a 75 kg rider and no passenger. The Honda CB125F is a naked bike with 124 cc, 10.7 hp and 117 kg; the KTM 250 EXC-F is a enduro bike with 250 cc, unlisted power and unlisted weight. Power-to-weight with the rider: 55.9 hp/ton versus no data.

In the simulation the Honda CB125F covers 0-100 km/h (speedometer) in 21.61 s and the KTM 250 EXC-F in 7.92 s; the KTM 250 EXC-F is quicker by 13.69 s. In the 60-0 km/h brake test, braking distance without the 0.3 s reaction time is 17.3 m for the Honda CB125F (ABS unknown, class assumption: no ABS) and 18.5 m for the KTM 250 EXC-F (ABS unknown, class assumption: no ABS). The Honda CB125F stops 1.2 m shorter. The standard 60-0 test is used because one calculated top speed is below 110 km/h. Calculated top speed: 100 km/h (manufacturer claim) versus 123 km/h (estimated from power and drag).

All values are an estimated simulation, not road-test measurements. Technical data comes from the sources listed below; the model uses model-specific parameters calibrated against published road tests for the Honda CB125F and class-average calibration (no accepted model-specific road test) for the KTM 250 EXC-F. Missing manufacturer data (power, torque, weight) is estimated by class regression, not measured. Open the interactive app (currently in Turkish) to watch the run side by side and change the load.
