    I like the yamaha ss125 after the smooth test ride. The bike is good in terms of comfort & pickup as well. Power engine, which is one of the best technologies which a bike can have. The ss125 has many cool features and affordable price.


    I mostly like its suspension and powerful engine which gives me more comfort.

    Pros

    look, suspension, power

    cons

    front number plate location

  • Great! great!! awesome!!!

    7 years ago


    Avinash

    After use of hero honda slender for more than 12 years and about 1 lakh kms, i was looking a bike which would provide me

    1 comfort for my back

    2 look

    3 power

    4 economy.

    searched a lot bikes, read reviews and i got this yamaha s s 125. While purchasing i was aware of one thing that it is a discontinued bike, though but i purchased it. My decision and judgement was perfect.

    still i am using this bike and i am really proud of it. I got above mentioned all 4 things.

    i have to go my office 30 km up and 30 down, total 60 km per day. It takes 25 to 30 min to go to my office. No backache. Mileage 6o km/ lit. Very confident with speed between 80 to 90. Another thing i am not worried about a small to medium sized potholes. Bike just jumps out of pothole and continues its run. Really this is great experience for me. One thing i do its servicing regularly as per manual.

    final words - just great.

    One curiosity- why yamaha has discontinued this model?

  • Stylish & performance bike

    5 years ago


    Prem Kumar

    Such a wonderful 125cc sporty, stylish and performance bike. I took it for long ride around 1200kms (up & down) it feels fantastic. If you ride this bike around 60 - 70kms on daily commute you will get more than 55kms mileage. In long straight it will surely beats its rivals shine & glamour without doubt. I reached 110kmph as max speed in my bike. Still owns it.

  • Yes yamaha ss-125. Economically stylish but.....

    7 years ago


    Sivaprasad

    Well, i bought my first bike, yamaha ss125 in 2011. Cause i kinda restricted on budget hence i was seeing around 55-65k range bikes. As a personal fan of yamaha, i didn't consider other brand's models. In yamaha, i narrowed down to sx-r, ss125. This ss125 is almost same like old gladiator model but with slight changes. Especially eye-catching sporty engine cover it attracts. After using a while (>6 yrs) i am happy with the decision. I lost the free servicing book given at the time of purchase and dealer is not ready to do free service without the book. I managed with my own money and i felt they could've done something for it. The place i am living had the average service capability, surely not the best or better. After servicing your bike you still feel that, something more can be done. 6 months back bike had a breakdown and had to call the mechanic to the house to take it, a major engine problem led to a charge of inr 5k and later servicing also paid inr 4k. The reviews on yamaha service centers in hyderabad are pathetic. I am afraid to go there and i feel better to take it to the hometown. When it comes to the bike performance, it gave around 50kmpl mileage on average and i use it regular day to day to purpose. A couple of times i rode >100 km at a stretch and it is never a problem. Max speed can touch near 90-95km and sometimes 100km when wind and road co-operate but you don't feel safe when you drive on high speed probably due to the rear tire size. I love the placement of handlebar, unlike other splendor/passion where it is high placed. It is more comfortable for short and long drives.

    B Rauth

    I have blue black coloured of 2013 model. Pros: excellent look. Extremely good suspension. Mileage 52 to 62 kmpl. Good n uniform pick up with 11bhp engine for safety. Just ride n experience. Good for long journey. Cons: colour should be more durable. Difficult to start in early morning during winter. Blue or blue black are best colour. Cost of parts is high n not available always.

    It is a good bike, i owned this bike for 10 year and about 50000 km, always done service at regular intervals, this bikes never bothered me, only its rear braking and tyre was not good, i change the tyre as off roading tyre and then it never get punctured in 10 years... I love this bike and feel proud to have it.. Yamaha always gives rugged engine which are tough and need no maintenance in this 125 cc group.. My bikes engine never got opened..

    i have to go my office 30 km up and 30 down, total 60 km per day. It takes 25 to 30 min to go to my office. No backache. Mileage 6o km/ lit. Very confident with speed between 80 to 90. Another thing i am not worried about a small to medium sized potholes. Bike just jumps out of pothole and continues its run. Really this is great experience for me. One thing i do its servicing regularly as per manual.

    final words - just great.

    One curiosity- why yamaha has discontinued this model?

    Such a wonderful 125cc sporty, stylish and performance bike. I took it for long ride around 1200kms (up & down) it feels fantastic. If you ride this bike around 60 - 70kms on daily commute you will get more than 55kms mileage. In long straight it will surely beats its rivals shine & glamour without doubt. I reached 110kmph as max speed in my bike. Still owns it.

  • Yes yamaha ss-125. Economically stylish but.....

    7 years ago


    Sivaprasad

    Well, i bought my first bike, yamaha ss125 in 2011. Cause i kinda restricted on budget hence i was seeing around 55-65k range bikes. As a personal fan of yamaha, i didn't consider other brand's models. In yamaha, i narrowed down to sx-r, ss125. This ss125 is almost same like old gladiator model but with slight changes. Especially eye-catching sporty engine cover it attracts. After using a while (>6 yrs) i am happy with the decision. I lost the free servicing book given at the time of purchase and dealer is not ready to do free service without the book. I managed with my own money and i felt they could've done something for it. The place i am living had the average service capability, surely not the best or better. After servicing your bike you still feel that, something more can be done. 6 months back bike had a breakdown and had to call the mechanic to the house to take it, a major engine problem led to a charge of inr 5k and later servicing also paid inr 4k. The reviews on yamaha service centers in hyderabad are pathetic. I am afraid to go there and i feel better to take it to the hometown. When it comes to the bike performance, it gave around 50kmpl mileage on average and i use it regular day to day to purpose. A couple of times i rode >100 km at a stretch and it is never a problem. Max speed can touch near 90-95km and sometimes 100km when wind and road co-operate but you don't feel safe when you drive on high speed probably due to the rear tire size. I love the placement of handlebar, unlike other splendor/passion where it is high placed. It is more comfortable for short and long drives.

  • Yamaha ss125

    Ramchandra H Bhoge

    I like the yamaha ss125 after the smooth test ride. The bike is good in terms of comfort & pickup as well. Power engine, which is one of the best technologies which a bike can have. The ss125 has many cool features and affordable price.


    I mostly like its suspension and powerful engine which gives me more comfort.

    Pros

    look, suspension, power

    cons

    front number plate location
