presentation of the WR 125 X 2016
in Yamaha's range of green machines, the WRs are authentic sports machines for enduro riders. So if this 125 with its supermotard profile is to live up to that name, it has to have solid arguments to back it up. First and foremost, there's the aggressive, sporty look and feel of the XTX 125, inspired by the WR 250. The 4-valve, single-cylinder engine is as modern as it gets, with liquid cooling, state-of-the-art fuel injection and 15 hp at 9,000 rpm. Although derived from the sporty YZF-R 125, the exhaust and intake have been adapted for better response at normal rpm. The gearbox is also identical, except for the final gear.
with its 17" wheels and sport tires, and 210 and 230 mm suspension travel, the WR-X is a supermoto. Powerful, lively and ready to pounce. In addition to a top-notch front end (41 mm fork, 298 mm brake disc), the Yam doesn't forget the nice little details, such as the footrests with their big grip like on compèt machines, the folding shifter, a big 140 mm rear gumshoe, or the body-colored painted frame.
Since 2011, the WRX 125 has been more accessible, optimized with a lowered seat, softer foam, a new fork and rear shock, and a modified side stand.

I would like to mount an alarm on my 125 wrx and I would like to know where the polug and play plug is.
Merci pour vos réponses Rating : 3/5 Respond to lucky83390
There's no plug and play socket on a motorcycle, you'll need to adapt a system connected to the battery in order to install your alarm.
The best thing would be to check with a specialist.
Good luck all the same. Rating : 3/5 Participate in the conversation
