Yamaha YZ125WR

Hot on the heels of Yamaha’s hugely successful Enduro bike, the YZ250WR - comes its more nimble brother, the YZ125WR. The ultimate in off road performance for the serious dirt bike rider with the added plus - that it is road legal. Crisp power in a lightweight chassis can mean only one thing – AN EAR TO EAR GRIN.

Owners looking for an adrenalin rush like no other should look no further than YZ125WR. It’s engine, chassis and suspension is the same as its MX cousin featuring beefy 46mm Kayaba forks, hard hitting two-stroke power, slick shifting five speed box and high tensile steel frame. But WR model enduro additions smooth power delivery to increase traction in all off road conditions.

Even better, the YZ125WR also features amazing versatility. Designed specifically for local conditions, the machine can be quickly and easily converted so the owner can ride motocross, supercross, competition enduro or just go for a weekend blast on the trails. The WR is supplied with its full MX competition kit that makes this model four bikes in one.

Based on one of the fastest MX bikes in existence means there’s no doubting that the YZ125WR will offer owners more smiles per mile than run of the mill trail bikes. But like this model, you will need to be quick to order as production numbers are limited.

THIS IS THE ONE EVERYONE’S TALKING ABOUT…
