Although the plastics on a CRM125 look very similar to the 250 they are quite different so if you really need one of these all I can give you are the parts numbers - it is either 83610KAKW00ZA or 83610KAKW20ZA.

Or start a long time search on eBay, particularly France, Germany and Italy. I assume you know they were made in Italy.

Have fun. You will want to lower the standard gearing on your bike is you haven't done so already. Otherwise you will find you are slipping the clutch all the time or being caught between gears. I rebuilt a CRM125 a couple of years ago -

i seen it before it its beatifull i have the standard gearing but also robbed my mates honda rebel 125 front sprocket for the journey there and back so i can cruise at low revs
when i open the throttle on the bike it coughs and splutters before the power band then comes in i have to rev it up before leaving lights and roads etc?

The 125 is quite peaky in that it needs to be revved before it has much power. That is why you need to lower the gearing for off road so that the gaps between gears is smaller and the power is available at lower speed.

The 250 is quite a different animal with regards to power and has a shorter seat height but longer suspension travel :? .

Y :?: the crm differs alot from the CR the cr is designed to be pasted on a MX track the CRM is designed as a greenlane tool , riding steadily, so the maintainance is different between a comp bike and a road/trail bike
Im thinking about a bike with more valves than a powervalve
