  Made even cooler by these eye-catching colorways just launched in Japan.

  Beginner bikes today are cooler than ever. Gone are the days when entry-level machines looked dull and uninspiring. Just look at bikes like the
  Aprilia SX 125 supermoto
  and the
  Yamaha YZF-R125
  . These lightweight, learner-friendly machines pack serious style and tech, making them highly sought-after in Europe. Now, let’s talk about another gem in this category: the Yamaha XSR125.
 </p>
 <p>
  The
  XSR125
  is Yamaha’s answer for riders who want retro charm without the intimidation of a bigger bike. It’s essentially a baby XSR, carrying the same neo-retro styling as its bigger brothers, the XSR700 and XSR900. That means round LED headlights, a sculpted fuel tank, and a minimalist design that blends classic aesthetics with modern performance.

   This is one of those bikes that's pretty from all angles.
  </p>

 <p>
  Under the hood—well, tank—it’s powered by a 124cc liquid-cooled, single-cylinder engine with Yamaha’s Variable Valve Actuation (VVA). This means it delivers decent power across the rev range while staying fuel-efficient. It makes around 14.8 horsepower, which is just enough for city riding and the occasional blast up and down a twisty road. The lightweight chassis and upright ergonomics make it a great option for new riders, while its classic styling ensures seasoned bikers don’t feel like they’re riding something too basic.
 </p>
 <p>
  Now, let’s get to the most exciting part—the fresh colors just launched in Japan.

   The Light Bluish Gray Metallic color scheme reminds me of the first-generation XSR900—my personal favorite bike.
  </p>
 </div>
 <p>
  First up, Light Bluish Gray Metallic 9. This one immediately brings to mind the silver colorway from the first-gen XSR900. It gives the bike a muscular, almost beefed-up look, making the tank appear larger than it actually is. It’s got that perfect balance of modern and old-school, making it a great option for those who want a subtle yet striking ride.

   The Berry Dark Orange Metallic motif gives of a retro vibe—plus, it sort of reminds me of rootbeer.
  </p>
 </div>
 <p>
  Then there’s Berry Dark Orange Metallic 1. If you’re into that retro, slightly rootbeery color trend, this one's for you. It’s a rich, deep brown with a glossy metallic sheen, complemented by gold decals that scream vintage cool. It’s the kind of colorway that makes you feel like you’re riding something truly classic, even though you’re on a modern, fuel-injected machine.
 </p>
 <p>
  Despite its small engine, the XSR125 makes a strong case for itself. It’s a fantastic commuter, lightweight and nimble, while still having the kind of styling that turns heads. Beginners will love the approachable power, while experienced riders can still appreciate its agility and fun factor.

Bimota's Wild KB4RC Finally Set for Release

 <h3>
  No doubt it attracts attention, but is it up your alley?
 </h3>
 <p>
  I don't think we've ever seen a
  Bimota
  and thought, "Ah, that's nothing special." Hate or love them, Bimotas snap necks as they pass with their wild, almost custom, seemingly one-off designs. Each bike is hand-assembled and painted by Italian craftsmen.
 </p>
 <p>
  Now, streets around the world are set to welcome another Bimota: the KB4RC.
 </p>
 <p>
  Bimota aimed to create the KB4RC as a motorcycle that would be simple to handle, encapsulating this vision succinctly with the term "freedom." The design builds upon the light framework of the KB4, incorporating substantial power from Kawasaki’s 1,043 cc inline-four cylinder engine typically found in the Ninja 1000SX. This engine delivers 140 horsepower along with 81 pound-feet of torque.
 </p>
 <p>
  This version builds upon the KB4, which was initially released exclusively for the Japanese market in 2019. Essentially, the KB4RC can be considered a Kawasaki Z1000, albeit equipped with a frame crafted by Bimota. Picture this: it’s like having an upscale naked bike that edges towards being a hyper-naked motorcycle.
 </p>
 <p>
  What theRCintends to accomplish compared to thestandard
  KB4
  is to be easily adjustable to suit the rider's physique, riding preferences, and style. Bimota used an eccentric adjuster that allows the step position and vehicle height to be easily adjusted. But the feature that's sure to turn the most heads is the 3-piece aluminum swingarm connected to the engine via a machined aluminum pivot plate. This swingarm wouldn't have looked out of place on a MotoGP machine a few years ago.

 <p>
  After you finish admiring the swingarm, there are numerous other impressive components to captivate you, such as the Öhlins suspension and Brembo braking system. If you're intrigued by the technical aspects of the motorcycle, take a look at the chrome-molybdenum steel front trellis frame attached directly to the engine with an under-seat radiator, which together achieve optimal front-to-back weight balance.

  The KB4RC has a suggested retail price of 4,7300,000 yen ($31,798 USD) and comes with a 2-year warranty. The question is, once it goes on sale on March 25th, how ready will you be to empty your bank account? Let us know if it's up your alley in the comments.
