It depends on duty factor of each connected device. For a continuous load you can support 80% of 125 Amps which is 100 Amps. That would support two 50 A breakers each supporting a 40 Amp continuous load. If your loads were less and not continuous you can have more breakers. It is all a matter of supply and demand.

How many 50 amp breakers feeding 50 amp outlets can you install from a 125 amp main panel?
Three or four would be normal. The total current should not exceed the rating of the main panel, so depending on how intensively the different circuits are used, more could be installed.
Should a 2 AWG copper wire be used to feed a 125 amp sub panel located 125 feet from main panel?
No, the conductor is too small. The feeder to a 120/240 volt sub panel should be a 1/0 copper or a 2/0 aluminium conductor. This size conductor will limit the voltage drop to 3% or less when supplying 125 amps for 125 feet on a 240 volt system. ACWU 90 (Armoured Cable Wet location Underground 90 degree C). ACWU 90 cable is code approved for direct burial and is used in many projects as an underground service distribution feeder. Aluminium is much cheaper than copper for this type of installation.
How can you find out the bus bar rating in a panel that is old and the rating sticker has fallen off is it safe to say that a panel with a 100 amp main breaker has a bus rated AT 125 AMPS?
A 100 amp panel should have a conservatively rated busbar and wiring but this says nothing about your particular panel. If you are asking a question relating to safety it needs to be seen by an electrician.
Can you attach a generator to your sub panel and back feed your house main panel I have a 125 amp breaker in the main that feeds the sub through 2 aught wire?
Yes but it has to be a synchronous generator like the ones used on the grid, and it has to be run up and phased before being connected. That is because all the generators on a grid run at the same speed and phase (the phase of an individual generator alters a little depending on the power flow from it).
How many centimeters are in 125 millimetres?
12.5 centimetres are in 125 millimetres.

How many amps can be put on a 125 amp service?
You should not load a 125 amp panel any more than 100 amps.
What wire size do you need for a 125 amp panel with a 100 amp main breaker?
A #3 copper conductor with an insulation factor of 90 degrees C is rated at 115 amps. Even though the panel is rated at a higher amperage it is the main breaker that governs the wire size.

What size main jet is in a ts 125?
The stock main jet size for a Suzuki TS 125 varies depending on the year of the bike and the specific model. It is recommended to consult the owner's manual or a Suzuki dealership to get the accurate main jet size for your TS 125.
Have existing a 125 amp main need more breakers spaces?
You can swap a single breaker for two mini breakers or you can add a sub-panel. If you only need a couple of extra circuits then just add mini-breakers.
