MXA FIRST RIDE VIDEO: 2018 YAMAHA YZ125 TWO-STROKE RAW

The MXA wrecking crew rook our 2018 Yamaha YZ125 out to Glen Helen Raceway for a chance to turn laps without anyone on the track—except other MXA test riders. That way, you get to hear the undiluted shriek of the venerable YZ125 engine at full tilt. It may not be the fastest 125 smoker on the showroom floors, but until they race start racing linoleum floors, bikes will be judged by how well they do on the track. Judge for yourself.
