Yamaha to launch ‘new retro’ 125cc bike in December

TOKYO, Nov 11 (News On Japan) –
Yamaha has introduced a “new retro” themed 125cc bike amid shrinking gross sales of mopeds in Japan.

The “XSR125,” set to be launched in December, contains a spherical monitor and goals to stability nostalgia with efficiency.

Yamaha targets annual home gross sales of three,000 items.

While gross sales of 50cc bikes, which could be ridden with a regular automobile driver’s license, peaked at about 2 million items in 1980, they’ve declined to roughly 130,000 items in 2022. Manufacturers are more and more specializing in the comparatively secure demand for 125cc bikes.

Japan’s National Police Agency’s council can also be discussing increasing the kinds of bikes that may be ridden with a automobile license, indicating intensifying competitors on this class.
