• UK Specs: All the details—from tyre pressures to the correct bolt tightness—are tailored for the models we ride here in the UK.

FAQ: Maintenance Tips

Q: How often should I change the oil on my YZF R125?
A: Small-capacity engines like the R125 do not hold much oil, so it is a good idea to check the level weekly. Our manual provides the exact service intervals and the best oil to use.

Q: My scooter's battery keeps going flat. What should I check?
A: If your XMAX or MP3 is left for a few weeks, the battery can drain. We show you how to test the charging system and how to fit a new battery safely.

Q: Can I fix the power valves on my Yamaha DT125?
A: Yes. If your two-stroke feels flat, the valves might be gummed up. Our manuals walk you through taking them apart and cleaning them to get your power back.
