I'm moving to Europe damit... this would be fun.

It’s time to get on the road, time to grab the maximum fun out of life with the Yamaha YZF-R125. This radical, high-revving, fuel-injected 125 is the work of the same engineers who created our YZF-R1 and YZF-R6 supersport legends and is packed with MotoGP tech. The YZF-R125 is here to deliver stunning R-Series styling and exhilarating sports performance because life is a sport, to be enjoyed to the max.

I've wanted Yamaha to build a 450cc /50hp bike like this one for a long time . even at 15hp /125cc it is very cool and probably a ton of fun to ride.

Dude...if I'm going to import anything, it's going to be 250s or 400s.

125 would be fun for about.....5 minutes (at least for us :mrgreen)

Yeah, no way I would purchase the 125, but a 20 minute session would be nice just to get somewhat familiar with it and see what it is capable off.

If it came to the US you would see so many of them.... These are the perfect bike for young kids. It's sweet looking and they can't get too crazy on a 125, a perfect combo for the 16-20 age group starting out.

a very good idea, to let little guys have atleast SOME way to get around, younger than 16.

they issued licenses in steps. first you had to ride the little stuff then you could move up so it wasnt like here where one with no seat time can buy a litre bike and hurt themselves or worse someone else.

im pretty sure only street time.

then I definitely don't support that system. I think time spent on a 250 in the dirt will teach you a lot more about how to ride a 1000 safely than any amount of time on an overgrown scooter will.

When I was living in Europe I saw them fly around pretty quick on that displacement, mostly Aprilia's...

:imwstat 16 your limited to 50cc, then at 17 you can ride a 125, then pass your tests you can have any bike you can afford to insure:fact

how about these 125's, both 2 stroke:yes
