Yamaha WR125X Review

Check out the new WR125X and you’re going to be amazed at just how much high-tech equipment Yamaha have managed to squeeze into this full-sized Supermoto! The first thing you’ll notice is its remarkable physical presence - in fact , when you first see this radically-styled new 125 it’s hard to believe that you’re not looking at a much larger capacity bike! Power is supplied by a punchy fuel-injected liquid-cooled 4-stroke 4-valve SOHC single cylinder engine which kicks out plenty of high rpm power for great performance on city streets and twisty back roads. Smooth-action 41mmm front forks and linkage-type Monocross suspension together with a massive 140-section sports rear tyre make for great roadholding. And for remarkable stopping power the 17-inch front and rear wheels run with a 298mm front disc and a 220mm rear disc.


Stopping power is bolstered with the WR125X Supermoto getting a 298mm front disc with a floating two-pot calliper while the WR125R Enduro has a slightly bigger 240mm wavy disc at the front with the same floating calliper layout.

Both have a single disc and single calliper setup for the rear braking system.

And to complete the appeal, both machines come with a LCD display.

The WR125X will come in Racing Blue and Sports White, while the WR125R will be available in Racing Blue and Yamaha Black.
