Yamaha MT-125

Yamaha MT-125 Price and Specification - “A strong point of the R125 is, that it looks like a big bike. Some people even mistake it for an R6. We wanted to keep that feeling for the MT-125 too. It should look like a big bike, by its overall size and shape and also by using serious parts all over the bike. Every component should make you feel proud. Yamaha MT-125 The 41 mm USD fork is a clear example of that. “It is much stiffer than the earlier R125 fork, to give a better feeling for the front wheel. We also participated in the development of the new tyres by Michelin, and those are also a big step forward, so all in all you get a very good feel for the road with the MT-125.”
Yamaha MT-125 Designer Olivier Béboux joins in. “We tried to design the bike in a pure and aggressive way, without gimmicks. The MT-09 and MT-07 were developed by our collegues at the same time, and we took some inspiration there, especially for the headlight shape and the air intakes on the side. But everything was adopted for the MT-125, with a lot of testing and thinking to give it this unique streetfighter look. The air intakes give more body to the bike. They are aesthetically integrated with the fuel tank, but with completely different surfaces and this creates a very functional feel to them.”

Yamaha MT-125 Price and Specification Other design elements were deliberately different from both the R125 and the MT series: “We developed the cover around the bottom part of the engine with a strong mechanical shape, like a real shield in fighter style. Yamaha MT-125 Deliberately not a pointy, supersports-derived undercowling. And to make the tail look shorter compared to the R125, we found a way to tuck the tail-light away under the seat, different from the other MT models.”!
