Yamaha R125 2011

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.

Yamaha YZF-R3 2019

With the new YZF-R3, Yamaha has taken the very good basis of the first generation and successfully developed it further. It now appears not only visually more mature, but also noticeably more competent at high speeds. When you ride the R3 at the limit, you quickly feel why Yamaha has set up its own Cup on it, as even the standard model gives a safe feeling at high speed. Nevertheless, there is room for improvement, especially in everyday use, when the rough response at low revs and the poor feedback from the brake lever lead to some moments of frustration during the ride.

High-revving engine

sufficient power for everyday use and compact racetracks

good basis for racetrack conversions

stable handling

suitable for long distances

poor throttle response at low revs

not enough feedback in brake lever

knee angle might be too acute for some riders
