Vehicle Information
Yamaha YZ125 Dirt Bike (1974-2026)
The Yamaha YZ125, a legendary motocross racing motorcycle, has been a dominant force on tracks worldwide since its introduction in 1974, continuing its legacy through 2026. Powered by a 124cc or 125cc two-stroke single-cylinder engine, this model has consistently evolved, adapting to the demands of competitive riding. Over its extensive production run, the YZ125 has undergone several significant generational shifts. Initially air-cooled from 1974 to 1980, it transitioned to a liquid-cooled engine in 1981, marking a major performance upgrade. Further advancements included the introduction of the Yamaha Power Valve System (YPVS) in 1982 and a comprehensive overhaul in 1996 with a new chassis and engine refinements. A pivotal change occurred in 2005 with the adoption of a lightweight aluminum frame, replacing the long-standing steel unit, alongside a redesigned engine and advanced suspension. More recently, 2020 saw the debut of the YZ125X, an off-road specific trim, followed by significant engine and component revisions for both the YZ125 and YZ125X in 2022 and 2023, ensuring its continued competitiveness.
