Features

Chassis / Suspension

  • COMFORTABLE ERGONOMICS: A plush and roomy riding position is ready for two, with a narrow seat design for easier flat-footing at stops, and plenty of leg space in front of the rider's seat. Meanwhile, the passenger gets dedicated foldable footrests and secure handholds that blend cleanly into the Zuma 125's body design.
  • DURABLE SUSPENSION: The telescopic fork features beefy outer tubes for strength, while fork boots help protect the large 33mm inner tubes from debris. The rear wheel swingarm features twin rear shocks with a full 3.1 in of travel for comfortable riding both on streets and on unpaved roads.
  • EXTENSIVE FUEL RANGE: The Zuma 125 boasts extreme fuel efficiency carrying the 1.6 gallon fuel tank over a wide cruising range. Its fuel tank emissions system includes a charcoal canister to control gasoline evaporation and reduce air pollution.
  • HARDY STEEL FRAME: The robust steel-tube frame is light but strong, and features a step-through design for easy mounting.
  • HEAVY-DUTY TIRES AND WHEELS: Fat 120/70-12 front and 130/70-12 rear DURO tubeless tires have an aggressive looking block pattern combined with lightweight wheels for great handling on unpaved roads and on the street.
  • HIGH QUALITY BRAKING: The 245mm hydraulic front disc and 230mm rear disc brakes provide plenty of stopping power while the wave-type front rotor design adds cutting-edge style. With a unified brake system, the rear brake lever applies some braking force to the front brake, while keeping the front brake from operating alone for safe and smooth-controlled stops.

Engine

  • AUTOMATIC CONVENIENCE: Fully automatic, V-belt transmission with centrifugal clutch provides easy, twist-the-throttle-and-go operation with great off-the-line acceleration.
  • CLEAN-RUNNING DESIGN: An upswept muffler incorporates two exhaust catalysts to reduce air pollution and meet emission regulations.
  • COMFORT-FOCUSED ENGINE BRACKET: A reliable steel engine bracket with rubber bushing linkage contributes a comfortable ride with reduced vibration. The link mechanisms are positioned on the underside of the chassis to maximize space for the storage compartment.
  • EASY ENGINE STARTS: A decompression mechanism on the Zuma 125 reduces the engine cranking compression pressure, combined with a starter generator control unit for smooth, quiet engine starts with better fuel consumption.
  • VARIABLE VALVE ACTUATION: The Zuma 125's engine features Yamaha's Variable Valve Actuation (VVA) technology, changing valve timing at different rpm, for linear acceleration, strong torque at lower speeds and power that lasts into the top-end.
  • YAMAHA BLUE CORE ENGINE: Yamaha's Blue Core 125cc liquid-cooled, four-stroke, single-cylinder engine, delivers excellent fuel efficiency and significant power for its compact size, using an SOHC 4-valve head with 11.2:1 compression ratio, a DiASil cylinder and an aluminum alloy forged piston. The fuel injection provides the optimal fuel mixture for varying conditions, including easy cold starts.

Other Features

  • MODERN GAUGE PACKAGE: The Zuma 125's stylish LCD meter features a fuel gauge as well as a full range of indicator lights with easy-to-read visibility.
  • PLENTY OF STORAGE WITH USB CHARGING: The cavernous underseat storage compartment is roomy enough for a full-face helmet and features two helmet hangers. The front storage compartment is equipped with an electric USB socket for conveniently charging your device on the go.
  • SECURE AND CONVENIENT: The Zuma 125 provides both a centerstand and side stand for parking convenience. For extra security when parked, the main switch is equipped with a keyhole lock cover. And the fuel filler is found just left of the ignition switch for easy refueling.
