The WR125R is aimed squarely at beginners, RV travelers, and riders who want a simple, approachable motorcycle that can handle both city streets and backcountry roads. It’s light, friendly, and surprisingly capable in a small package. Better still: it's only $3,999.
If you’re shopping for your first bike or looking for a low-stress dual-sport to add to the garage, the WR125R deserves a close look. Here, Road Test Editor Troy Siahaan — not at all a dirt rider — takes the WR for a spin to see how beginner-friendly it really is.
