Yamaha Tricity 125
The Yamaha Tricity 125 was introduced in 2014 as Yamaha's first mass-market leaning multi-wheel (LMW) scooter, featuring a unique twin front wheel design derived from technology developed for the larger Niken. It was designed to offer enhanced stability and confidence, particularly in urban commuting conditions, appealing to newer riders and city commuters. The model helped pioneer the leaning three-wheeler scooter segment and has been continuously updated, with a significant redesign arriving in 2019 featuring a more modern chassis and styling.

What Buyers Should Know
Unique Leaning Three-Wheeler
The Tricity 125 features Yamaha's LMW (Leaning Multi-Wheel) technology with two front wheels, providing significantly better stability in corners and on slippery surfaces than a standard scooter.
Watch the Front Suspension
The parallelogram front linkage system can develop play and creaking noises over time — always test-ride and inspect the front end carefully on used models, as repairs can be costly.
Strong Resale Value
Due to its unique design and limited competition in the leaning three-wheeler segment, the Tricity 125 holds its value better than most 125cc scooters, making it a smart buy if well maintained.
