WR125 - HUSQVARNA. The WR 125 is the motorbike of choice of many young riders wanting to make a start in enduro.

Light, powerful, manoeuvrable and stable, the WR 125 is a firm favourite having won countless national championship events and in effect becoming the point of reference in its category. The new version benefits from a redesigned frame that has been reinforced in the most critical areas. The chromium molybdenum trellis frame members have been altered as have the upper and lower engine mounts on the new geometry frame.

The plastics are all new, more flexible and stronger so as to avoid damage and the graphics have been created using new IPD (in-mould plastic decoration) technology. The rear mudguard has an LED light cluster with a dual purpose number plate holder (homologation or racing number). All that is needed to have the number plate holder in racing form is to undo two fasteners. There is no need to buy and fit additional after-sales parts.

The 125 comes fitted with Marzocchi 50 mm forks. The Sachs shock absorber has a new separate reservoir that is mounted horizontally in relation to the body of the unit.

The engine has been updated with a new exhaust pipe that improves engine response at low revs and that features a new Arrow silencer.
