How fast is yamaha r125

Sorry cant seem to find a 2 stroke version at the moment I will keep my eyes open but an alternative is a Gilera SC dont know much about them but they seem nice But since I have a R I always will say they are best. It looks like a ducati which would mean they've messed with the fairing? I dont know an awful lot about them.

But what I know is most bikes that have been messed with like that will have a problem with being "dropped" or "crashed" or "vandalised" that sort of thing or having a positive view on humanity they just wanted it to look nice.

People are reading the question and are giving the best answer. He could pour lots of money into making it faster, and the bike will go slightly faster.

I'm not saying to sell it and get a bigger bike, I'm saying to sell it and get a 2 stroke as they are a lot faster than a YZF-R The owners might not like that fact, but it's still true. No one has made any secret of the fact that they can pour lots of money into trying to tune their YZF-R if they really want to, that is completely their decision is they want to.

It's similar to someone spending lots of money 'tuning' a 1 litre fiesta, they could spend lots of money on it and they'll make slight improvements to the speed and acceleration of the car.

But it would much easier and much cheaper for them to just sell the fiesta and buy a faster car. The slow YZF-R might be their 'pride and joy' but I'm pretty sure if they sold it and then bought a faster 2 stroke then that would very quickly become their 'pride and joy'.

He wasn't asking if it was good idea or not he was asking how he could get more from his bike. It looks to be fairly tunable from the aftermarket parts that have now become available for it.

They make about This should allow a genuine mph with the right gearing. However this is the nearly at performance level of a std but de-restricted NSR or TZRR, so you will spend alot of cash for a relatively small if still noticable gain in performance. If you are keeping the bike many years and have the cash to blow on it, then fair enough! If your waiting to do your test or saving for a bigger bike in 12months then just forget touching it at all!
