The XSR125 may look retro, but it is highly modern. After all, the 125cc engine even has variable valve timing! This allows for decent riding dynamics, because the handling is also very successful in combination with the comparatively low weight. Nevertheless, the operation is generally very simple and uncomplicated, which is why even novice riders and beginners are not overwhelmed. The price is also acceptable, although at first glance it seems quite high compared to the performance, but it is usually even higher among the competition. The successful retro look alone is worth wanting the XSR125!
