European Yamaha YZF-R125 Looks Like Lightweight Fun

European Yamaha YZF-R125 Looks Like Lightweight Fun

By Dirck Edge

Can you have fun with less than 20 horsepower? What if your bike weighed 280 pounds?

These are questions you can ask yourself if you live in Europe and have an opportunity to buy a 2008 Yamaha YZF-R125. With slick bodywork, a six-speed transmission and 125cc of four-stroke, single cylinder power, this bike is all about being nimble while you wring its neck!

Apparently, Yamaha thinks there is no market for the YZF-R125 here in the States. On the other hand, we think it's cool, and priced right could even sell in decent numbers. Take a look at Yamaha Motor Europe's web site here if you would like additional information.
