2026 WR125R: Your Gateway into the World of Adventure Riding

Yamaha opens the gates to adventure with the new entry-level WR125R as the smallest-capacity member of Yamaha’s dual-sport range offering limitless possibilities of urban adventure as well as genuine off-road potential.

PURPOSEFUL POWER

The 125cc engine punches well above its weight in delivering a thrilling yet easy-to-manage performance. Thanks to VVA automatically and seamlessly switching between two intake cam profiles, the WR125R offers ample low- to mid-range torque and strong power higher in the range, resulting in a highly versatile and efficient engine.

EASY HANDLING

Working in harmony with the engine, the supple suspension and agile chassis help make the WR125R highly capable even on rough terrain. The semi-double cradle frame provides great feel on varied surfaces, even when riding at higher speeds. The suspension consists of a 41mm KYB fork and a linked-type Monocross shock to smoothly absorb bumps and resist bottoming out.

SIMPLY REFINED

The refined simplicity of the WR125R makes it a comfortable and enjoyable everyday ride, with features such as the multi-function LCD instrumentation with smartphone connectivity offering convenience, and the single-channel ABS front brakes delivering confident braking performance. The design of the WR125R takes cues from traditional Yamaha off-road themes, mixing them with modern touches. The result is a machine with bold horizontal lines blended with compact and streamlined elements, such as the striking front fairing housing the dual-lens LED headlight.
