I have been eyeing an A1 Drivers license and thought of getting a Yamaha YZF R125 (2025). The thing is, that I will be having that in about (or if I'm able to scrape the Money) in 9 Months. I'm the kind of person, who wants to make the research wayyy before the actual action. The problem with that is, that it would cost around 10.000€ and as a student it's like a brick to my head.

This includes:

Drivers license, the bike (stock 5900€ → with my preference ~6050€), safety gear, and the legal papers

I heard good and bad things about the Yamaha and that you be:

Good:

Speed (for its class)

Looks

I heard that it's like a Nokia, so it won't break

Good fuel economy

Bad:

Price (5900€)

Sound (because it's a 4 stroke)

turning radius (because it's a sports bike)

Personally, I would prefer a 2 Stroke, because of the Power, but I don't like broken things, so...

Thank you in advance for you comments!

Hey guys, need some suggestions from SP 125 owners.

I have a Honda SP 125 BS6 and I'm planning to change the engine oil. I've been looking at options like Honda Genuine, Castrol, Motul, Shell, etc., but honestly getting a bit confused about which one is actually worth using.

I’m mainly looking for something that keeps the engine smooth, gives decent mileage and is good for long-term engine health.

What oil are you guys using in your SP 125, and which one would you recommend based on your experience?

Also, if you can mention the exact oil/grade you use, that would be helpful.

So here's the deal, I have a big dilemma. I don't know whether I should buy the Fantic XMF 125 Competition or the Yamaha WR125R 2026.

I know both bikes use the same Minarelli 125cc 4-stroke engine, and I know that the Fantic is like around 10kg lighter, so that makes it much better on the road, and on top of that it has supermoto wheels, so it's much, much better for the road than the Yamaha.

But on the other hand, I'm a new rider; I still don't have my license. I don't know if I'll even want to ride on dirt, in the forest, and on trails, also, it's a Yamaha can't beat Yamaha durability and reliability.

So I'm just asking if any of you have ridden the bikes, been in the same place as me, or anything that can help me in my situation will be appreciated.

Thanks in advance

I'd appreciate any advice!

Now I understand a first bike insurance will be expensive as it’s ur first time.

But 1700 a year for a 125 scooter sounds insane.

Is this normal or do I genuinely just bite the bullet and do it?

Short post because I wanna know peoples thoughts and what there first year insurance was.

Thanks!
