We want you guys to wait for the report of the test ride until July

because in July because the media test rides are around that time.

Actually we managed to test ride Kaori Kondo’s machine which is really similar to the YZ125X.

We experienced the YZ125X despite the short time we spent.

It’s compact, light, has a power even in the low RPM band ,

and can achieve power of on par with a motocross machine level at high RPM.

The setting we tested is for #902 Kaori Kondo

so this is not an actual impression of a standard production machine

but I think it’s safe to say this machine has a great potential in that it could be set up like this.

We are thinking about publishing our test ride impressions around the middle of June.

Stay tuned!
