The 125cc motorcycle category is thriving in the United Kingdom with a host of options across a variety of styles from the conventional naked to the more dynamic supersport to even the odd ADV with designs on conquering the great outdoors.
In short, if you’re on a modest budget and you don’t need to make a dash from the traffic lights, there is a fine selection of multi-talented urban runarounds primed for your attention.
But with such immense choice comes an immense headache of ensuring you’re getting the motorcycle that is right for you… fear not, Visordown is here to bring you what we think are the best 125cc motorcycles on the market whether you’re seeking something versatile, affordable or maybe even a little head-turning.
We’ve covered a range of models here from the venerable Yamaha R125 and Honda CB125 to some less obvious considerations, including the sharp little Lexmoto LXR and the ambitious Sinnis Terrain.
