I love that Yamaha is doing this, more options for this category. However as a Honda guy and love this and the Trail 125, they are too small for me and we need a 250-350 cc version of these.
A lot of what keeps many small street legal bikes out of the U.S.A. is their inability to run the speeds of even the urban highways and the biggest is cost and process of getting them approved/certified to pass the strict U.S.A. emissions requirements. A bike like this with a 175cc engine, ability to comfortably run 55/60 mph and get 65+ mpg at an out of the door price under $3500 may be the ticket to actually reverse the trnd of the lagging falling number of new motorcycles being sold in the U.S.A. Not to mention in my opinion these smaller efficient great fuel mileage gas motorcycles make a lot more sense than electric options and if you could get enough of the population using these for normal transportation/commuting uses and parking their big SUV'S could also really help lower the fossil fuel usage and carbon footprint from todays levels.
There are people who would ride this on gravel way out in the country roads in the US. People always forget we have true no houses for miles around areas in the US. Roads where you could ride at 25 mph with not a care in the world. There is a market for this bike.
@@scrambler69-xk3kv There is currently a market BUT if you want to hit it out of the park sales wise in this country you make the bike do a bit more so it attracts a wider audience. In a production plant the best scenario is to be able to make 1 model which uses all the same parts, same packaging with no assembly line or parts requirement changes and it sells as fast as you can get them into your distribution system. Also as a dealer it is much easier to need to stock fewer models that appeal to more customers than trying to figure out whether you may sell one of this model and two of that model and 10 of another. If you are wrong in your projections you may end up with 8 of one model nobody wants while you still need 10 more of the model you thought you would only sell 2 of. Noyt to mention the dealer being able to stock parts for fewer popular models means a better chance of walking in and the dealer having the part you need in stock. The hit it out of the park model benefits everyone including the consumer because the most popular models with the high sales numbers is who the aftermarket also caters too.
I agree, as soon as I saw the thumbnail I was hoping this would be a trail clone with a bit more engine. Sad to see it is a bit less. Videos of people's trails with big bore kits and sprocket swaps look like the perfect size bike for a new female rider or a less experienced older rider. It is a very approachable platform, more so than the xr150. I don't know too many people who would be intimidated to swing a leg over a honda trail. There is a drz110 sitting in my garage right now, not because it was the correct size for anyone here, but because my ex girlfriend didn't want to run a clutch, my ex wife was the same way. My father is getting to be at a similar point at his age. We have talked about bikes and he said he might like to get something if it was simple. He has ridden other bikes and still drives a manual transmission truck, but at his age his hands aren't quite what they used to be. Something that was just twist and go would be ideal. I have looked at the trails and the navis. Both are just about right, but could use just a bit more power. I'm sure he would ride back roads 90% of the time, but occasional 55 zones to connect back roads can get sketchy pulling out with so little power.

@@vr6muppet Even when I was investigating the Honda TRAIL 125 I was hoping that Honda would introduce a model of the trail that had the newer 5 speed manual engine like comes on the Monkey. No reason for Honda not to introduce such a model they already have all the parts required to do so. But for me the killer is the Hondas not being capable of a 55mph sustained speed on the road, just needs more engine or actually torque to be able to pull a gear ratio that makes that feasible. I still say 175cc would be the sweet spot between power and rideability while still maintaining the bikes original goals. What I find attractive about the trail size bike is they are perfect for transporting on a hitch carrier for long distance like going away on vacation and then used as the transportation or exploring the area you have travelled to. But I also think Honda is a little overboard on the pricing of the trail and monkey as well for what they actually are and the consumer is really getting for their money.
When I saw this at the Thai Motor Expot I loved the look, its a beautiful bike, and there were a lot of people interested in it, but to be honest I was sad to see they used the Finn platform and not the more powerful Exciter Platform to base this on. The 155cc Exciter engine would have made this a lot more fun, and put the CT125 to shame.
I have the Honda 125 Hunter cub on American dealership lots it’s called the trail. But this Yamaha looks pretty damn cool and I wouldn’t mind having it also. If it comes with those tires, I’m pretty sure it has a low gear ratio, made especially for climbing.
The Navi is only 110cc so this would sell, I think. Not to only the younger generation, but older riders who have no desire for fast speeds, but are looking for a lighter bike to extend their riding days. And this would fit nicely on the back of an RV.
Ok Yamaha, could you listen to this? between you and Honda I am more of a fan of Honda BUT If you sell this to the EU you have my money and Many more will buy it. Honda had their chance with the CT125, Now I'm fed up with waiting, Bring this into the EU and you will sell a lot of them. PS, It's a shame there's no Kick start on the PG-1.

Heh. I know this will do well outside the U.S. but many here in the U.S. want something like that with a bit more power to haul our large butts. Something like 200cc would be about right.
The low exhaust and the fact that it oddly pokes out below the engine doesn’t make it look like so much fun in rough terrain. Definitely not comparable to the CT125 like the video mentioned.

That's definitely not going to happen with this model. They'd have to change a lot of the bike/frame to accommodate the larger engine and water cooling system. Perhaps they'd put a 125cc engine (or do they now make any larger in that air-cooled format?) or go aftermarket for a bit more displacement, but you'd likely never match the power of the liquid cooled 155cc engine
