2010 Yamaha YZ125

Designing a dirt bike is never easy, but it seems that Yamaha has got the perfect recipe as it pulls it through, managing to release better performing competition bikes with each year that passes. Racing against the "Yamaha YZ125" and one against the other is any 125cc two-stroke motocross bike and 250cc four-stroke motorcycle ever to be produced by makers who actually feel like selling their products. Yamaha is keen on the two-stroke segment and I can understand why. Riding the Yamaha YZ125 is like an incursion into the racing past of dirt bikes. You really can’t get enough of the Yamaha YZ125 especially if you’ve been dirt riding back in the glory days of the two-stroke engine.

Light, versatile and very easy to toss around, the Yamaha YZ125 is destined to teenagers and adults alike even though the more potent YZ250 is also an important two-stroke model of Yamaha. The bike reacts to the rider’s commands fast and in a very natural way. Wait, does this bike even have a problem?
Overall, the Yamaha YZ125 is an aggressive piece of machinery that misses no chance to impress while it stands out as the noisiest and most versatile dirt bike out there.

There are sides who encourage the four-stroke engine development (which already happens, so I don’t really catch the purpose) and sides who remain faithful to the two-stroke engine and it often happens to see the first camp lose members in favor of the second once they experience a bike such as the Yamaha YZ125.
