Pre-treatment (Process that protect the base metal form rusting) were prepared today for yamaha at our plant site(it provide paint and chemicals to all bikes in pakistan), and line trials planned in January so you can expect these bike will come soon..

Dear friends. I was first to break news of Yamaha bringing ybr125 to Pakistan. You can check from post date to see that when people were just speculating about Yamaha coming to Pakistan I gave confirmed news of it and also the first bike that they will launch which is ybr125. And yes they did start operations in September when they started mechanic classes and bike testing. Bike release date is expected to be first week of May 2015. Now I have more confirmed news about the bike as follows

• It will be carbureted bike and not fuel-injected
• It is completely made in China just like gd110
• Also, just like gd110 it has a lower ground clearance than locally produced bikes. So expect it to hit a few speed breakers with pillion riding
• The built quality is good and paint and chrome quality is almost like gd110
• The bike has less power and more weight than CG125 so do not expect any miracles from it power or speed wise
• It has same front tyre size (2.75 18) and rear tyre size (90/90 18) as Honda Deluxe and Ravi 125

The bike handles just like Ravi 125 and is not as agile like Honda CG125 or Honda Deluxe. If you want to know how the bike will behave on road then just test ride Ravi 125. Speed and pick wise CG125 will still be ahead in 125cc 4 stroke category. After test driving the bike I think if someone cannot wait for its launch then they can just go ahead and buy Ravi 125 as feature wise and handling wise its very similar. I am very sad to see that once again Pakistan motorcycle industry is not getting anything good. If one has passion and money then best buy is Suzuki Inazuma which is Fuel Injected 250cc with tubeless tyres and front and rear disk brakes (but price is extremely high).

your post tell that your another honda fanboy second the bike is not that slow tci ignition ensure faster acceleration and long wheel base,longer fifth gear ensure that the bike will have good top speed ybr have 77mph of top speed that make it 112km/h and cg has 105km/h top speed so it definitely faster than cg and only time will tell how will it acceleration so instead of just typing this info research on it and than share it on forum

i do not agree with your review at all specially on your saying pakistan industry not getting
any thing good yaar these yamaha bikes are much better than the decades old atlas honda
they are new tech bikes and finally some thing fresh & original made by such an big brand
in motorcycles industry Yamaha themselves manufacturing and giving here unlike atlas honda
which only have co operation of Honda those bikes are made by atlas

Its the best & happiest time in our motorcycle industry almost seems like a dream

Man no comparison of Yamaha made bike loaded with features & new tech with Piaggio 125

yamaha is nodoubt have better product than AHL

[saboor73]

I know they will be pretty much expensive. Still this attracted me and I have got my eyes on this. What is it? Specs or any thing.

even if they are expensive so what ppl buy deluxe for 124k and according to some source the price will be 120-130k so its worth buying not to forget the build quality will be much better than any other bike available

I'll wait for Yahama. Till than happy with my CD-70. After May one can decide if Yahama has indeed brought something new to the market or not. Besides than we will most probably hear from someone who might have bought the new 150 launched by AHL and its pro's and con's.

My dear no new 150cc bike will be launched from AHL it will be only a 70cc bike you can confirm it from khantheGR8.aur rah gyee baat atlas key to oos key waisay he band bajnay wali hay kyun k AHL apni koi bhee policy change kernay per razi he nahin sivaey sticker change kay

[amjad635]

I don't think "Atlas Honda Ki Band Baje Ge" they may suffer little bit in 125cc category bikes
baaqi overall they will still remain biggest player in motorcycle market their CD70 & CG would
still remain highest selling motorcycle in pakistan motorcycle market

[abdulrehmanrauf]

Band nahi tou bajay ge tou zaroor...nowadays AHL is mainly earning from Punjab province and then from other parts of country like interior of Sind and other.

People in Punjab are fan of Yamaha name (just like they are fan of AHL) they surely will be attracted as they already are missing Junnon with Yamaha tag and the famous YB.

125cc version is the entry and may be they will come up with some other version to compete with 70cc. Yamaha seems to be quite serious this time. I have already started observing the local mechanics even in Karachi talking about the upcoming arrival of Yamaha.

I am really hopeful that Yamaha will in sha Allah come and break the monopoly of AHL and GS-150. We deserve better quality and some competition.

Khan sb said there is another bike with --0cc going to be launched besides 70. I know new model of 70 is coming but as speculated i think there is another bike coming this month and its 150.

Salams to all.
1. Where can I get a side car for a motorcycle? ( similar to the one in Indian film SHOLAY). I visited bike market near saddar Karachi but could not find anything.

1. Used Heavy bike dealer in Karachi?
