Yamaha R125 2012

In the course of our 125cc special, we tested the Yamaha YZF-R125 together with "Psycho Philipp" on the kart and supermoto track in Wöllersdorf. This year we were already on the road with Yamaha's eight-litre supersports bike at the Pannoniaring at the Gripparty and were able to convince ourselves that it can even stand up to its full-grown peers. On the miniature ring of the "Actionsracers", the little super sports bike was then really in its element.

Honda's CB650R proves brilliantly that four-cylinder naked bikes with little displacement are also a real source of joy on the country road. The engine tuning gives enough pressure from the hairpin bend and rewards with a wonderful four-cylinder shriek after a short wait. The suspension components clearly attempt a balancing act between everyday life and sportiness, which is why unrest can quickly be found in the vehicle when approaching the cornering at a brisk pace. Somehow, however, this imperfection gives the Honda a lot of character and gives the rider the feeling of having to actively integrate himself into the action. For country road racers with a daily commute, a real recommendation!

Rev-happy engine

reasonable power

sporty seating position

wide handlebars

very rideable motorbike

comfortable for everyday use

pretty display.

Weakness in the chassis can be seen as a disadvantage

not as much power from the hairpin as two-cylinder competition
