So now I am the owner of a brand new Yamaha YZF R125 in 2010 Power Black. Unfortunately, the bike isn't released until later on in the month so I am going to have to wait until June for it.
This bike is a 125cc learner legal sports bike in the same family as the R6 and R1 and styled the same. It has a Liquid-cooled, 4-stroke, 4-valve, single cylinder, SOHC engine which is tuned to 11kW (14.7 bhp) the legal limit for learner bikes. Like the R1, the R125 features a lightweight Deltabox frame linked to a cast aluminium swinging arm.

This bit from the owners manual made me chuckle -
It's a 125cc learner legal motorcycle! How on earth is it going to do super high speeds???
i was thinking of getting this bike or an Aprillia RS125 which do you think would be better?
