So far Yamaha factory bikes have taken over 500 Grand Prix wins – and the R125 World GP 60th Anniversary’s historic white-and-red racing colour scheme pays tribute to 60 years of competing at the very highest level.

The Yamaha R125 World GP 60th Anniversary’s aerodynamic white bodywork features Yamaha’s red “speed block” graphics, that were made famous by Yamaha’s Grand Prix race bikes since 1961. And just like the World Championship-winning machinery this exclusive lightweight R-Series comes with gold-coloured wheels, a red front fender and yellow front number plate – as well as a 60th anniversary emblem and bold red stripe running along the top of the fuel tank and tail that signify its pure-racing DNA.
For outstanding road holding the bike’s compact Deltabox chassis features 41 mm USD front forks and a lightweight aluminium swingarm, as well as state-of-the art brakes and lightweight wheels. The Assist & Slipper (A&S) clutch gives you increased controllability when decelerating – and the stunning looking aerodynamic bodywork with its M1-inspired faring and cockpit make this World GP 60th Anniversary the most desired 125cc supersport and confirm your entry into R/World.
Yamaha’s original GP bikes featured a white fairing with red “speed block” graphics, as well as a red front fender and golden wheels. The R125 World GP 60th Anniversary recreates this iconic look and pays tribute to the machines and riders that have helped Yamaha win over 500 Grand Prix and 38 World Championships, since the company’s first GP in 1961.
High-tech 125cc EU5 engine with VVA system
The R125 World GP 60th Anniversary’s engine benefits from an innovative Variable Valve Actuation (VVA) system that optimises the valve position for high levels of low rpm torque with strong high rpm power – and delivers excellent fuel efficiency. A wide diameter throttle body gives a smooth and controllable throttle feel – and the exhaust system produces a sporty and emotive sound.
To achieve high levels of intake efficiency the R125 World GP 60th Anniversary’s engine is equipped with large intake and exhaust valves as well as a compact combustion chamber. Combined with the high-tech VVA – as well as the large throttle body and sports exhaust system – this configuration produces impressive acceleration.
Deltabox frame for precise handling and control
Delivering smooth and light handling characteristics as well as excellent high-speed comfort, the R125 World GP 60th Anniversary is one of the best-handling bikes in its category. Its Deltabox frame uses optimum front and rear geometry as well as a short aluminium swingarm and 41 mm upside down forks to give you the ultimate 125 supersport chassis specification.
Lightweight aluminium swingarm
Yamaha R-Series models are designed to give you the ultimate in style, performance and technology, and to underline its position as the premium 125 supersport, the R125 World GP 60th Anniversary features a lightweight aluminium swingarm. Manufactured using Yamaha’s advanced casting technology, its short dimensions, low weight and optimised rigidity deliver sporty handling performance.
A&S (Assist & Slipper) clutch
To help you take full advantage of the free-revving engine performance, the R125 World GP 60th Anniversary is equipped with an A&S clutch that gives a light feel at the lever for easy operation and precise control. This design ensures smooth and efficient acceleration, and during deceleration the A&S clutch improves controllability.
R-Series DNA body design
Inspired by the iconic R1, the confident and aggressively styled face features dual LED headlights that reinforce the shared family DNA. Its M1 MotoGP® style front fairing underlines the race-bred specification, and with a 12 LED taillight and premium finish, there’s no mistaking the pure R-Series DNA in the R125 World GP 60th Anniversary’s stunning bodywork.
Sleek 11-litre fuel tank
The R125 World GP 60th Anniversary’s race-bred bodywork is complemented by a sleek fuel tank that emphasises the bike’s pure supersport pedigree. Consisting of a steel inner tank protected by lightweight close-fitting external covers with a high-quality finish, the 11-litre tank can be removed easily for routine maintenance.
M1-inspired cockpit
Everything about the R125 World GP 60th Anniversary is designed to give you the ultimate supersport experience. Inspired by Yamaha’s M1 bike, the racy cockpit features a high-quality handlebar crown, as well as a high-visibility LED instrument panel and brake lever protector that put you in total control on the track and on the road.
High-visibility LCD instruments
When you turn on the R125 World GP 60th Anniversary’s ignition you’ll be greeted with a personal greeting from the high-tech instruments – and when you’re riding, the multi-function display gives you information on gear position and shift timing, as well as a VVA indicator. Housed in a stylish and sporty panel, these high-visibility instruments keep you informed.
Sporty but comfortable riding position
As well as its race-bred M1 style cockpit, the R125 World GP 60th Anniversary is also equipped with a two-piece rider and passenger seat featuring thick foam for a smooth ride. With an optimised handlebar position and aluminium rear set footrests, the ergonomics give a balanced riding experience that’s both sporty and comfortable.
Wide 140-section rear tire
To confirm its strong R-Series DNA the R125 World GP 60th Anniversary runs with a wide 140/70-17 rear tyre, that gives excellent stability and confident cornering. Offering a good balance of grip and durability, this supersport style tyre is designed to enable you to optimise the potential of the engine’s broad spread of power – and its wide section accentuates the bike’s aggressive R-Series stance.
