Lo que los compradores deben saber
Blue Core Engine Tech
The Ray ZR 125 uses Yamaha's Blue Core engine technology, delivering a claimed fuel efficiency of around 50-55 km/l. This makes it one of the most fuel-efficient 125cc scooters in its segment.
Watch the Belt Drive
The CVT belt and rollers are known wear items — inspect them every 20,000–25,000 km to avoid sudden power loss or jerky acceleration. Replacement is affordable but commonly overlooked by owners.
Strong Resale Value
The Ray ZR 125 holds resale value well due to Yamaha's trusted brand reputation and steady demand in the used scooter market. A well-maintained unit typically retains 60–70% of its value after 2–3 years.

Reseña de un comprador usado
"Solid urban scooter if service history checks out completely."
$1,200-$2,200 usedThe Ray ZR 125 is Yamaha's street-fighter take on the scooter formula, and honestly, it punches above its weight for urban commuting. That 125cc fuel-injected single is smooth and surprisingly peppy through city traffic — not fast, but confidence-inspiring for newer riders. Build quality feels solid for the segment, and Yamaha's reliability reputation generally holds up here. If you're buying used, check the CVT belt and rollers first — owners who ignore the 8,000km service intervals often neglect these, and replacement isn't cheap relative to the bike's value. Suspension is street-focused and handles potholes decently, though spirited cornering reveals its budget roots quickly. The Street Rally variant with dual-tone color and knobby tires looks sharper but rides identically. Watch for crash damage around the fairing corners — panels are expensive to source and previous owners frequently lowside these in wet parking lots. Mileage under 15,000km with service history is the sweet spot.
