How does the YZF-R125 cope with handling compared to larger sportbikes?
The Yamaha YZF-R125 is a smaller, more easy to handle engine that mimics the look and feel of bigger supersport motorcycles. That raises questions about how that compares to the handling characteristics of the bigger siblings. Other riders love the R125’s nimbleness and say it can hang with bigger bikes in the twisties. Some think it is less stable and confidence inspiring at higher speeds or in challenging conditions thanks in part to its lighter weight and smaller tires. There’s also debate about whether the R125 helps you learn skills that transfer well to larger sportbikes, or if it teaches you bad habits that you then have to unlearn. We'll compare the YZF-R125's handling with higher power sports bikes and what this means for riders looking to upgrade.
The R125 is a dream to handle through the corners. You can really throw it around with confidence because it’s so light and flickable. I bet it could keep up with much bigger bikes in tight, twisty roads.
