Hey, i am turning 17 soon and was thinking of getting the yamaha YZF-R125 and was wondering if someone could let me know a few facts about it such as speed, average price of spare parts ect... and also what is the minimum height you would need to be to ride it comfortably ?

Thank You

Welcome Ryan,

There are a range of useful threads about the R125 on this forum, have a search around.

Things to be wary of:

Check the cost of insurance, this bike ain't cheap to insure.

Check for poor maintenance and badly done mods (it was always like this with L-plate bikes)

Check for crash damage.

The seat height is not low (as is the fashion), but it is very narrow, so will probably only be an issue if you are under 5'6" - sit on a few at the dealer to see what you think.

Bloody expensive for what they are though............
