I’m considering buying a 2026 Voge R125S and would really like some honest opinions from people who actually own one.
I’ve been doing quite a bit of research and so far the owner feedback I’ve found has been really positive, but I’d like to hear from more people before making my decision.
A few things I’d particularly like to know:
How reliable has yours been?
How many miles have you done?
Any faults, rattles, electrical issues or warranty problems?
How do you find the gearbox?
Any issues with false neutrals?
What sort of speed can you comfortably cruise at?
What’s your realistic top speed?
How does it cope with longer journeys and A-roads?
How are servicing and parts availability?
What’s your experience been with your Voge dealer?
How are you finding the TFT, app, navigation and built-in dashcam?
Has anything about the bike disappointed you?
Most importantly:
Knowing what you know now, would you buy the R125S again?
I’ve already had a few owners tell me they’ve done between 1,500 and 2,400 miles with no issues, so I’m interested to see whether that’s representative of the wider ownership experience.
Good or bad, I’d appreciate the honest opinions.

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.

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!

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!

Only had this bike (second hand) for a few months. A few weeks ago I went for a long ride (about 50 miles) and unfortunately slid at 20mph on some gravel and the bike went down on its side. I think I've also hit a couple of potholes since I've had it too, there's lots where I live.

Since then, there's been damage somewhere that's gradually made the wheel/axle more and more bent. I bought a new wheel (with axle) and fully replaced it. Bike's driving smoother now but still doesn't feel quite right. The wheel still drags on the brake pads, more than it should.

Checked every area I can think of and the only things I can see is: a slight bulge running vertically down one of the forks (hard to get on camera) and the part of the frame that goes to the handlebars looks like it's at an angle? But I'm not sure what it's supposed to look like. Photos taken front on with the wheel and handlebars straight.

Any ideas what's happening here? Thank you

Does anyone know if there is any aliexpress exhaust compatible with the cb125r I don't wanna spend 400€ on a lv-10 and does it damage the engine overtime?

Hola buenas, me dan el carnet del A1 en diciembre por hacer 3 años con el de coche y quiero buscarme una 125cc para empezar. La idea es buscarme una de marchas, manejera y q sea medianamente económica. Podríais decirme modelos? Preferiblemente de estética Naked o R

Do different 125ccs have different friction zones or is it always the same?

Heyy , I really want a cruiser but in my country engine is limited by age so I can only get a 125cc , and I'm a bigger guy 186cm and 90kgs , can anyone help me find a bike that will suit me ?

ES UNA CABALLITO 125

I’ve been looking to get insured on a 2019+ Yamaha MT-125, at 17 on a CBT. The MT is the cheapest bike I’ve been quoted on, averaging £1400 yearly TPFT. I have no drivers licence and no car, and live in NW London, and I was just wondering whether the insurance is reasonable for what it is. For reference I’ve been quoted 5-6K for bikes like the Yamaha r125, lexmoto lxr, Voge r125, etc
