Japanese motorcycle manufacturer Yamaha released the official details and photo gallery of the 2010 YBR 125 model, a learner-friendly motorcycle that proved to be quite successful in worldwide markets.
The new entry level sport bike from Yamaha features a refined, more aerodynamic analogue instrument panel with an integrated RPM meter located above the headlight assembly.
“For 2010 Yamaha have concentrated on creating an even more attractive and comfortable package with a number of changes to the bodywork and chassis. Passengers will also appreciate the ergonomic design of the redesigned passenger grab handle, which provides a secure hand hold when riding two-up,” a company statement says.
Other features include a new muffler design, additional passenger grab bars and new tank covers on the side for protection.
“Its winning combination of ease of use, attractive styling and remarkable economy has established the YBR125 as a firm favourite with commuters all over Europe,” Yamaha says in a self-praising document.
In fact, the YBR 125 was the best-selling motorcycle in the UK last month, with 328 registrations, outpassing the YZF-R125.
