The 2011 YAMAHA YZ-125 "Special Edition"

[maicoman009]

The 2011 YZ-125 on the front of this site is awesome to say the least! For a while I was a little "pissed off"at Yamaha for bringing the YZ-400f out in 1998,actually 97 when Doug Henry raced the first YZM-400 4-STROKE but even now in 2010 Yamaha is still making the 125 & 250 2-strokes which in my opinion is their saving grace.I mean after all they were the first company to start this 4-choke mess to begin with!However since they are still making the kick ass YZ-125 & YZ-250 IN 2011 KUDOS to Yamaha for not letting their GREAT running and good handling 2-strokes go the way of the other Japanese brands like Honda & Kawasaki!From what I've read some people can still buy Suzuki RM-250's in Europe but I'm not 100% sure about that?None the less Thankyou Yamaha for still making the YZ's because they are great bikes for sure!!!!!!!

I'm not sure which site it is but I was looking at a picture of a factory YZ 2s and a guy in the background had a t-shirt on that read "Real Men Still Mix Their Gas". It gave me a laugh!

There is an article on this website that confirms that Yamaha are still committed to building 2 strokes for at least the next 5 years. And I would think even longer if current trends continue and people go back to riding and racing 2 strokes !!!!!!!
