I am not an expert on this bike, but if you check http://100megsfree4.com/honda/h0100/cr125.htm it suggests at least the frame is a 1975.

There are several differences.

Most noteworthy is the red stripe on the 75 gas tank vs. the green stripe on the 74. Marty Smith replica, just add rider skill. :D

The 75 had an integrated silencer on the pipe vs. the bolt-on pickle of the 73.

Digging a little deeper, the 75 cylinder had a boost port above the intake port (like the optional GP cylinder that was offered for the 74).

Thats about the extent of the changes that I can recall.

The 1973-74 CR 125 will start out with a number 1 on the frame & the motor. The 1975 CR125 will start out with a number 2 on the frame & motor along with the various changes mentioned above.
