 Instead of floating panels on the front apron, the 125cc scooter gets a more compact cladding. To keep lines sharp, even the turn indicators have been relocated from the panels to motorcycle-like units on the top apron.

The headlamp misses out on LED lighting and has a halogen bulb setup instead.

The tail section design is new as well and features multiple panels. The silver panel on the blue Ray ZR 125 Street Rally variant is made of metal instead of plastic.

The front apron has a lot of nooks and crannies. We feel that Yamaha should have utilised the free space and have offered an apron mounted bottle holder or a mobile phone holder atleast.

The tail lamp features a new design and is wider than before. Even the grabrail has been redesigned and is easier to hold on to.

Yamaha has also equipped its 125cc scooters with start/stop technology like the Honda Activa 125. However while the Honda needs to cross a certain speed to activate the system, the Ray ZR 125 need to cross a certain engine temperature level to activate the system.

The new 125cc fuel-injected motor delivers 8.2PS and 9.7Nm of torque. That is 1PS and 1.6Nm more than what Yamaha’s 113cc motor makes. Yamaha claims the new motor is more fuel-efficient as well. It also gets a starter motor generator that offers silent starting operation.

The Ray ZR 125 Street Rally variant gets block tread pattern tyres that should offer good grip over a variety of road surfaces.
