The MotoGP purist in India will vouch on only one machine; the singularly true Yamaha YZF-R15. Now in its Version 2.0, the YZF-R15 is the most affordable bike in the country to give its rider the legitimate feel of a performance circuit machine.The 150cc liquid-cooled 4-stroker is fuel injected and rewards its riders with almost 17 bhp of unadulterated road-legal track practice.
A smaller bike, with the same celebrated “R-series” DNA as the YZF-R15, has been introduced in Europe with updates for the year 2014. The YZF-R125 has been recognized as the undisputed leader in the 125cc supersport segment. The enhancements it now comes with makes the new YZF-R125 even more authentic and consequently so much more desirable.
The 2014 YZF-R125 has been completely redesigned and now comes with a new aggressive front fascia with air intake located between the headlights same as other models in the series R, and more. Besides the advances listed below the new YZF-R125 is also frugal with the fuel reducing the consumption to as much as 11%.
