Yamaha’s new WR125R hits the streets

Yamaha’s WR250R Enduro model has been one of the most innovative and competitive trail-style bikes in recent years – and the good news for 2009 is that a new 125cc version is here! Designed specifically for road and off-road riding, this all-new full-sized machine benefits from Yamaha’s radical next generation off-road styling, giving the rider serious credibility on the street and in the dirt!

A free-revving, fuel-injected, liquid-cooled, 4-stroke 4-valve, SOHC single cylinder engine powers the learner legal enduro rep and to ensure impressive off-road potential, this all-new 125 is equipped with a 21-inch front wheel and 18-inch rear wheel and dual-purpose tyres. Wavy discs deliver effective stopping power with plenty of feel whilst the 930mm seat height and the handlebar/seat/footrest relationship are designed to enable the rider to stand up when riding off the road for increased comfort and control.

The Yamaha WR125R is available now at authorised Yamaha road dealers, priced at £3099.00 (not including road fund and first registration fee). Colour options are Racing Blue and Yamaha Black.
