common features with other Yamaha R series bikes.

dual headlamps making a sharp nose look for the bike. The R125 comes
with fair amount of covering on engine department similarly like other R
series models from Yamaha bikes.

low oil and low fuel indicators. Bikes overall design is eye catching,
it gives a sporty look on passing by and its alloy wheels add more to
its beauty from ground level.

is powered by a 124.6cc engine which is single cylinder liquid cooled
four valve four stroke engine. The engine type is fuel injected and
produces a max power level of 15PS at 9000RPM and also a max torque

a promise of better control and handling. Yamaha claims the bike’s top

With such large parts and power and wheelbase of 1355mm 40Kmpl is always
a good offer to accept.
Braking and suspension: Yamaha YZF R125 has got breaking system
designed to halt instantly. The front brake is two piston 292 mm discs
and single piston 230 mm is its rear brake. Along with immense breaking
power there requires a good suspension to absorb sudden shocks that come
in contact in the form of speed breakers or any mud holes, so YZF R125
has front telescopic type with wheel travel of 130mm suspension. The
rear suspension is mono cross with swing arm technology. Rear suspension
is hardly seen to maintain looks of bike.
