The Yamaha DT 125X voted one of the finest 125 models on the market

With a look into the motorbike industry today, the Japanese motorbike firm Yamaha most well known for their line up of R6 models, are the centre of attention with a 125cc model. The DT 125X model which was originally introduced to the world back in 2004 and still going has been given a five star rating from the motorcycle news. The bike is a motocross style bike and shares some unique specifications as some of it's rivals from the company KTM. This bike is road legal and is a part of Yamaha's super moto range. Added pieces of equipment for this bike are somewhat limited but as far as everything else is concerned we think Yamaha have a winner.

What does the Yamaha DT 125X consist of ?

Well if you're purchasing a motorbike for the first time, we believe that this could be the ideal machine for you. Engine wise we see the inclusion of a 125cc engine which is capable of reaching a general top speed of 65 miles per hour and therefore produces 15 brake horse power. Of course this bike is not super fast but for a 125cc engine and for a first time buyer this is ideal. An electric starter also comes along with this particular variation. A strong set of brakes come along with the DT 125X and a good all round suspension system only adds to the excitement.

Reliability wise, this bike is said to be very good. Not a lot of major concerns have been raised over the DT 125X over the years. A fuel tank capacity of 11 litres is also a welcomed addition to this variant and a good all round range of 145 miles can be reached from a full tank.

What's the cost on a new DT 125X ?

The official price for a brand new version of this bike comes in at £3,199. So for a good all round riding experience, we think that the price tag is reasonably priced. It can be purchased from select Yamaha dealerships right now here in the United Kingdom and across other dealerships world wide.
