presentation of the WR 125 R 2009
the DTR 125, which took us back to the fabulous history of the 125 DTMX, is no more, and the XT 125 feels the age of its technology weighing on its connecting rod. For Yamaha's 125 trail epic, the new bike has class. The new machine is called WR, a sportier, more responsive offshoot inspired by the 4-stroke cross-country bikes developed by Yamaha. Despite the declining popularity of this kind of all-purpose machine, Yam continues its love affair with 125 trail bikes. And so much the better for all concerned, as these bikes are capable of a great deal of versatility, from high school in the morning to cross-country touring in the afternoon.
the WR 125 R is designed to flatter the owner, with a sporty look that's not at all unpleasant. Admittedly, the WR 250 launched last year gave it a few styling ideas. The little WR's 4-stroke single comes from the sporty YZF-R 125. If its 15 horsepower felt a little short in the mini R1, it'll feel more lively in the WR, especially as the intake and exhaust have been tweaked for greater responsiveness. reworked for greater responsiveness - on an enduro trail bike, you're looking for mid-range response rather than high revs.
with its 41 mm forks and racing-like TT physique, the WR 125 R could almost show off with its equipment. Its factory-style enduro footpegs, folding shifter, long suspension travel and generous ground clearance allow you to venture into many corners where the asphalt hasn't yet eaten up the dirt. The Yam's handlebar/seat/footrest triangle makes it easy to have fun on soft ground, while the fuel tank and seat allow the rider to move forward or backward with ease.
it's enough to make many people want to ride a simple, playful, fun TT. Only the price makes it less affordable than its predecessors. Its single-cylinder engine and equipment explain the inflation.

Bikers' reviews Leave a review - 9 reviews
mine is from 2010 and runs perfectly at 12,000 km (ridiculous consumption....)
Of course, let's compare like with like!
nothing to do with the kick in the ass of a 125 2t...
but frankly, this bike is just perfect for touring/enduro riding (no overhanging, too heavy...) and as a utility bike, it's perfect!
THE BIGGEST REPROACH IS THE FRONT BRAKE... not so good, need extra distance.
otherwise, with a complete CRD exhaust system and a few other small modifications, it's very easy to get the most out of it, and to enjoy it on the road!
If you're looking for a nice, reliable enduro/Trail 125 4T, go for it, you won't be disappointed, it does its job very well.

I'm delighted with everything and my fuel consumption is less than 2.5l per cent
Rating : 4/5 Respond to techni
A 125 4-stroke, or even a 250 or 300, as we get them in series production (except in competition, and even then you have to have the means and the time to maintain them), is just good for mowing the lawn!
2-stroke fuel injection, powerful, light, economical, non-polluting, and so much fun!
Manufacturers, we're counting on you to bring out real small and medium-displacement machines!

There's no point in taking the R model if you don't want to ride on trails. It's not an enduro (too heavy and a little less maneuverable than this hyper-specialized type of bike), but it's already a good trail rider and can go almost anywhere. You'll need to make a few modifications, however, if you want to go trekking with it. Change the original tires, which, it has to be said, are not up to the job. For my part, I've fitted TKC 80s, which work well except in very greasy conditions. Then plan to change the handlebars for a real enduro (they can take falls without any problem). Harden the suspension (change the fork oil) and for the more adventurous, fit a chain tensioner. But what you really need to do is fit a gearbox output sprocket with one tooth less. The gain on the trails is really obvious (catching up, crossing), while the top speed only drops by 4km/h. (Vmax for 86 kg on the 107 km/h GPS bike). After modification, everyone who tried it was charmed (girls included). Oh yes, I forgot, it's a fairly quiet bike, which silences the critics of this kind of green leisure activity. So watch out for game..... and other quadrupeds! Rating : 5/5 Respond to csined
