Yamaha YZF-R125 2021

The Yamaha YZF-R125 in the 2019 version makes journalists' lives difficult. You search and search for a fault, but can't find one - simply frustrating! Because the 15 hp single-cylinder with variable valve timing (VVA) performs excellently and is undoubtedly one of the best power units in the 125cc class. The handling is convincing in everyday life as well as on the racetrack, even if the chassis shows its sporty side on bumps. But we are on a super sports bike, so that is not a serious point of criticism. Maybe I need to ride the R125 for a few weeks to find its Achilles heel after all....
Aprilia Tuono 125 2017

With the Tuono 125, Aprilia has succeeded in creating a very sporty A1 naked bike. It impresses above all with its high top speed and a great chassis. Aprilia has managed to combine great handling with a lot of cornering stability. Visually, it is strongly reminiscent of the big Aprilia Tuono V4 1100, without looking silly. Great overall package for sporty, ambitious riders!
