Yamaha XSR125: The Ultimate Cool Ride for New Riders

Published by

Enhanced with these vibrant new color options recently released in Japan.

Beginner bikes today are cooler than ever. Gone are the days when entry-level machines looked dull and uninspiring. Just look at bikes like the
Aprilia SX 125 supermoto
and the
Yamaha YZF-R125
These sleek and user-friendly devices come with impressive features and technology, making them very popular in Europe. Let’s now discuss another standout model in this range: the Yamaha XSR125.

The
XSR125
This model from Yamaha caters to those seeking the appeal of vintage style without the overwhelm of handling larger motorcycles. Think of it as a scaled-down version of the XSR series, sharing the same neo-retro aesthetic found in its more substantial counterparts, such as the XSR700 and XSR900. This includes features like circular LED headlamps, a contoured fuel tank, and an understated design that harmoniously merges traditional looks with contemporary capabilities.

This bike looks attractive from every viewpoint.

Inside the frame—or should I say, under the tank—the bike is equipped with a 124cc liquid-cooled, single-cylinder motor featuring Yamaha’s Variable Valve Actuation (VVA) system. This setup allows it to produce good power throughout the RPM range without sacrificing fuel efficiency. With approximately 14.8 horsepower, this motorcycle performs well for urban commuting as well as spirited rides along winding roads. Its light build and comfortable posture cater particularly to beginners, yet its timeless design keeps experienced cyclists from feeling like they’re using an entry-level machine.

Let’s move on to the most thrilling part—the newly released vibrant colors from Japan.

The light bluish gray metallic color palette brings back memories of my all-time favorite motorcycle, the first-gen XSR900.

To start with, we have Light Bluish Gray Metallic 9. This shade instantly calls to mind the silver version of the original XSR900, giving the motorcycle a robust and somewhat exaggerated appearance that makes the fuel tank seem bigger than it really is. It strikes an ideal balance between contemporary design and vintage style, making it an excellent choice for riders seeking a understated but eye-catching machine.

The Berry Dark Orange Metallic pattern exudes a retro feel—and it somewhat brings to mind root beer.

Next up is Berry Dark Orange Metallic number 1. For those who love that nostalgic, somewhat rootbeer-inspired hue, this option will surely appeal to you. This shade offers a luxurious dark brown finish with a shiny metallic touch, enhanced by golden accents that exude an old-school charm. It gives off the impression of being aboard a timeless classic, despite the fact that it’s equipped with contemporary features such as fuel injection technology.

Even with its compact motor, the XSR125 proves to be quite compelling. Ideal as a daily ride, this motorcycle is light and easy to maneuver yet boasts a design that attracts attention. Novice riders will enjoy the manageable torque, whereas seasoned drivers can relish its handling and excitement.
