KTM 125 Duke 2017
É realmente fantástico o equipamento que se pode comprar atualmente na classe das 125cc.

Yamaha MT-125 2016
Em inglês, existe o chamado "street cred". Um valor que mede o respeito e a frieza na estrada. A Yamaha MT-125 tem muito disso, impressiona com o seu aspeto adulto, que faz lembrar muito as suas irmãs maiores. O comportamento e a posição do assento são desportivos, uma streetfighter para a cidade. É aqui que a pequena moto japonesa se sente mais em casa. Com o seu baixo peso, consegue deslocar-se no trânsito da cidade e os percursos curtos por terra não são problema. Apenas a falta de espaço de arrumação e o preço relativamente elevado deprimem a impressão geral muito positiva da mota A1.
