Based on the celebrated YZ125 motocrosser, the YZ125X is optimised for the unique demands of enduro and cross country racing.
The powerful Yamaha Power Valve System (YPVS) equipped 125cc two-stroke engine is mated to a six-speed transmission for the ultimate cross country powerplant. An ultra-lightweight aluminium semi-double cradle frame is engineered to provide competition-ready handling character and composure.
It comes paired with best-in-class Speed Sensitive KYB® spring-type front fork and high performance KYB® long-travel rear shock, both fully adjustable and tuned for the specific demands of cross country racing.
A racy ‘gripper’ type seat and narrow fuel tank combine with a tapered aluminium handlebar and adjustable mounts to create greater freedom of movement and more comfortable ergonomics for riders.
Industry-leading, fully adjustable KYB spring-type forks now feature tool-free compression adjustment at the top of each fork leg. The speed sensitive damping uses piston speed to control damping force for super-precise handling and a smooth ride, with minimal wasted stroke or abrupt shocks for the rider – all tuned for the demands of off-road racing.
The YZ125's advanced, liquid-cooled YPVS-equipped 125cc two-stroke engine provides impressive acceleration, thrilling mid- to high-rpm power, along with supreme usability.
Cross-country-spec Dunlop Geomax MX33 tyres front and rear are ready to head straight to the races. An 18-inch rear tyre has a taller sidewall to improve comfort and reduce pinch flats.
The YZ125X comes equipped with an 18-inch rear wheel, standard side stand, sealed O-ring chain, reserve fuel petcock, lightweight bar pad, headlight and scraper between the fork's dust and oil seal, all adding up to exceptional off-road performance.
A race-proven, highly developed aluminium semi-double cradle frame is engineered to provide the perfect balance of rigidity and flex for competition-ready handling character and composure. Removable aluminium rear subframe is constructed of square-section tubing for reduced weight.
