The Intrepid New Knight of the 125cc Class
One of the most popular motorcycles in Europe's competitive 125cc class, the
exciting Varadero 125 offers superb quality of design and execution in a mid-sized
package of aggressive Adventure Sports styling that never goes out of style. Its newly
fuel-injected four-stroke V-twin engine delivers the highest power and quickest
acceleration in its class, while its generous size and long-travel suspension systems
assure versatile 'go-anywhere' handling with spacious, adult-sized proportions that keep
the riding fun and comfortable for one or two.
For its first major upgrade since debuting in 2001, the new Varadero 125 features
an even more attractive form, with its redesigned front cowl projecting a sleeker, more
dynamic image while providing enhanced wind protection for extended riding comfort.
Engine performance has also been brought up-to-date with a new fuel injection system
providing smoother and stronger acceleration coupled with easier starting, and low
emissions and fuel consumption that fit the times with a dedicated concern for the
environment.
As always, the Varadero 125's balanced and beautifully integrated design offers
great appeal to not only new license holders, but also seasoned riders who can
appreciate its ample comfort, perky performance, easy handling and unbeatable
economy. Like its predecessor, the new Varadero 125 sets the pace in the 125cc class
with performance, panache and a wide range of all-day riding pleasure that is difficult to
match, yet easy to enjoy.
