The Zuma 125's are great. :D

Just get on and go. They don't complain. Rugged little machines and easy to work on. If I have to go somewhere when the weather is lousy and don't feel like taking the car I always choose the Zuma.

I don't think I ever got the 103 MPG they claim in the advertising but that said I've had a lot of fun trying. :lol:

Yeah . . . I saw that. I think they are going to release it in Taiwan or something.

Useful storage rack on the front and a shaped seat. I hope they made the "dished area" large enough to accommodate larger riders to allow comfortable rides.

TBH I'm happy with mine. I doubt I'd trade it for a new "Adventure" type Zuma but I'm glad Yamaha continues to try and improve on an already great product. :D
