2026 R125

R1-inspired 5-inch TFT instruments

The R1-inspired 5-inch colour TFT instruments provide you with clear information and underline the R125's premium status and best-in-class specification. Select your ‘Street’ or ‘Track’ screen theme depending on the riding situation – and match the programmable shift light and rpm meter range easily in 200 rpm increments to your riding style and individual preferences.

Smartphone connectivity

It's easy to stay connected when you're riding the R125 by linking your smartphone to its TFT instruments using Bluetooth® and the MyRide app. Once connected, you'll have access to turn-by-turn navigation and destination weather conditions, plus incoming call and text message previews and music song and artist information on the 5-inch TFT screen.

R1-type handlebar crown and switches

Everything about the R125 is designed to give you the ultimate Supersport riding experience. Inspired by Yamaha’s MotoGP® bike, the racy cockpit features a high-quality R1-type handlebar crown – and the clip-on handlebars are equipped with an R1 replica right switch cluster.

R7-inspired LED headlights and position lights

The powerful and compact central LED headlight located in the centre of the M1 MotoGP® style nose underlines the R125's big bike attitude. Together with the R7-style LED position lights this aggressive face oozes pure R-Series DNA.

Dynamic next generation Yamaha Racing design

Inspired by Yamaha’s winning race machines, the R125’s next generation aerodynamic bodywork gives this lightweight Supersport a commanding big bike look and feel. Its aggressive R-Series face features an M-shaped nose inspired by the M1 MotoGP® bike to underline its racing heritage – and the next-generation Icon Blue, 70th Anniversary and continued Tech Black colours with dynamic graphics highlight the bike’s premium finish.

Traction control system

The R125’s traction control system gives you a high degree of controllability during hard acceleration by reducing driving force to the rear wheel, if any tendency to slip is detected. The premium and high specification also includes an Assist & Slipper clutch for controlled deceleration. And the R125 is also pre-wired for the fitment of an optional quick shift system for seamless upshifts.

70th Anniversary Yamaha Racing colours

Marking 70 years of Yamaha performance, the R125 wears its heritage proudly in a stunning white-and-red anniversary livery. Inspired by icons of the ‘90s, it’s a head-turning mix of nostalgia, attitude and absolute iconic Yamaha design – proof that legends never really go out of style.
