So, you think motocross ATV is cool, huh? Well guess what, you're not the only one! And since all the racers you admire started as newbies somewhere back in time, maybe it's not too late for you to grab the bars of such a machine and start proving what you can do. And since going straight for the big beasts is not that wise, here's the 2013 Yamaha Raptor 125, the entry level machine to fit the bill.
The 2013 Yamaha Raptor 125 is a scaled-down version of the big racing Raptors, and it sports the same attitude. Created for smaller riders aged 16 or older, this quad offers a lot of punch and character, and will not be easily outgrown. The gritty 124cc air-cooled single-cylinder engine is coupled to a 5-speed gearbox and a heavy-duty clutch which will offer instant thrust gratification in almost any situation.
Adjustable suspensions help easily tailor the machine's response and feeling for a variety of surfaces and riders, offering maximum of traction and increased comfort, as much as racing allows. A three-chamber exhaust borrowed directly from the Raptor 250 ensures low noise and high performance, while the hydraulic disc brakes offer a dependable, firm stopping force.
With a sporty lineage of both the Raptor and YFZ series, the 2013 Yamaha Raptor 125 retails for $3,499 (€2.670).
