Yamaha YBR 125 and Daelim Roadwin 125


I will tell you little-known fact: the world the bulk of sales of motor vehicles are motorcycles with engine capacity up to 400 cm3, and the category 125 cubes can be considered one of the most popular.

I want a motorcycle! Prompt something new and cheaper ... How many of my friends, I have heard similar words. For some reason they all think I know the answer. In fact, the desire to buy a new inexpensive motorcycles and was born following the test.



The reaction of the middle strata of society and swept moto world famous brands, which made management of these companies in a somewhat new look at the possibility of the local market. Demand for the 2004 season proved that the buyer is ripe for buying a new bike in the range 2.5-3 thousand dollars and as a consequence, the demand in the salons, there was a relatively new technique for a class motorcycles. However, everything is new - well forgotten old. The choice in this price segment, of course, is not as wide as a bump but develops a couple of years (I'm sure!) Skeptics will be able to see firsthand the native streets, that the bulk of sales of modern motor vehicles does not constitute superbikes. But, enough of the lyrics, let the hands touch the subject!

Heroes of our test, Yamaha YBR125 and Daelim Roadwin and 125 are the same middle class. At first glance, the difference is visible in the conceptual approaches to designing motorcycles. Super Yamaha YBR125 - the development of time-tested classic design, simple and most reliable. At the same time with a traditional Japanese quality, excellent maneuverability and comfortable suspension. Daelim also trying with might and main to resemble a Serious models parading almost diagonal frame and looks great without his beloved Asian manufacturers of cheap tinsel. The reaction of testers log on bikes more surprised - healthy men screamed and whooped with delight! The symptoms were due to the incredible friendliness experimental ease familiarization and driving. No exaggeration - to sit down and be able to go to any fifth-grader or a person aged. The incredible lightness of both devices at once aroused the desire to experiment ... and the results were immediate.

If you choose a bike for country walks, the best value for money not even imagine. In a strong steel frame Yamaha YBR125 (diameter bearing tube 38 mm) installed a reliable 4-stroke 10-horsepower motor, with good traction on medium and high speeds. There are two versions of the bike: a small dome, and without (with a round headlamp). Version of a motorcycle with a fairing has a distinct advantage of the aerodynamics. Since the test is held in cold weather and rain, this fact allowed some parts of the body to stay dry, which can not be said about quite naked Roadwin. Cost Yamaha is fantastic, we've got about 1.7 l per hundred. Incidentally, the maximum speed of 110 km / h is quite sufficient. If the engine is not force, it will be a long time and right to serve his master. Front and rear suspension rather for the city, but for the country road - what the doctor ordered. PPC - no complaints, transfer included a clear in all modes. Liked it easy to find neutral. Brakes, of course, the strong side of the moto: a front disc and a self-contained drum - behind. In short, the technique as such have no complaints, but the tires I personally was not happy. Not for them the city - it's a fact. This is the only item made in Taiwan. Cycle Protector keeps well in the lane and sand, and on the pavement, to say the bad - especially in the wet. This must always remember and reconfigure itself to brake rear brake mostly. Comfortable classic fit and incredible ease of management has to use his Yamaha on every single day. I would recommend it as the most affordable and reliable bike for home use and, perhaps, as the best place for learning. And most importantly: the price of the Euro 1990 ... - no comment.

If the Yamaha looks definitely perceived as a moped or light motorcycle, then Roadwin technical solutions like modern. Here and planting more sportbike and geometry of the suspension a little more road. Steering angle is much smaller than the Yamaha. Rear mounted gas-filled shock absorbers. Motо much heavier weight (135 kg vs. 106 kg) and rides more like a big motorcycle. Hanging in the middle frame (in fact, Duplex) engine clearly hints at the existence of a bulk version of a motorcycle (250 cm3).

Beautiful (with reserve) two-piston disc brakes, although this motor would be enough for the eyes and less powerful. And the ride quality on the pavement are very different from YBR125, the reason for that - the real road tires dimension - 110/70-17 and 140/60-17. Running has excellent driving dynamics, it is true motor does not fully disclose their. But on the roads with Roadwin is off limits, this bike - only for the city.

In general we think: no matter what you choose, the dream of summer resident - Yamaha or practical urban and smart Daelim. Both will give you a lot of fun and become reliable assistants.
