Evaluation of Yamaha Lightweight Street Running Skyhawk 125 Overriding Edition

Yamaha Skyhawk has attracted much attention since it was launched in September last year. According to different consumer groups, Skyhawk is divided into two configurations: Overriding Edition and Aggressive Edition. This time, Moxin. com evaluated Skyhawk Overriding Edition.
One.Appearance part

As a latecomer of street sports car, the Overriding Edition has a distinctive appearance, which is both aesthetic and practical, and fits the manufacturing concept of Yamaha locomotive very well.
Extraordinary fuel tank modeling

The beautiful and unique fuel tank shape did not disappoint everyone, and its super-large fuel tank side plate with a sense of existence completely stood out from the same class. The highlight is that the designer hides the fuel tank changeover switch in the side panel, which makes this beautiful integrated design more neat.
Halogen shaped headlight

The headlight of the override version has high resolution and strong texture, which is a pleasant enjoyment whether it is pure visual inspection or finger touch. Because it was a sunny day during the test, the headlights were rarely used, but Xiaobian still opened it in broad daylight, and its luminous effect was very penetrating.
Sharp tail shape

The sharp and cool taillights combined with the super-running fender, the new shape of the side plate and the tail create a different dazzling back. When the knight rides the Superversion and leaves, pedestrians who have been dumped a few blocks will inevitably keep the sharp tail of the Superversion in their minds.
Stereoscopic pointer instrument panel

Its humanized new reading interface design greatly improves the readability of the dashboard, and the design that echoes the headlight curve adds a sense of integrity and substitution.
Stereoscopic front fender

The three-dimensional design of the front fender has the dust protection function of the front fork at the same time. In addition, one of the differences between the Skyhawk Overriding Edition and the Aggressive Edition is that the Overriding Edition is equipped with a windshield with a strong sense of sharpness, and the lower diversion and rear pedals of the two cars are also different. The harmonious collocation of dynamic elements makes the mystery and locomotive flavor of the override version more prominent.

Distinctive street sports car style, angular vehicle appearance, mysterious and domineering. Skyhawk is superior to the version, and it is indeed domineering and "superior" to the world. When we first met, we have already grasped Xiaobian’s appetite. I think, whether you are an old motorcycle rider who is used to riding a medium or large displacement or a newcomer who just learned to ride a motorcycle, you will get different sensory enjoyment.
II. Power component

Skyhawk Overriding Edition inherits the consistent and reliable power performance of Yamaha streetcar, and the classic YBR125 engine glows with brilliance. After long-term postgraduate study in China market, YBR engine has become a representative of high-quality power. In order to obtain more accurate evaluation data, the editors tested the climbing performance, speed change, starting performance and performance status of the override version in various road conditions (asphalt road, cement steep slope and wading road lights).

Climbing performance
15The steep slope can be easily climbed, and if the angle is increased upwards, there will be a sense of stagnation, good power output and extraordinary performance, and it is still easy for two people to climb the steep slope when riding.
maximum speed
According to the current industry standards, the maximum speed of the override version exceeds 90km/h, and the maximum linear acceleration is 95km/h on the flat cement road, which is a bright spot for YBR125.
Medium speed power
The acceleration performance is good, the engine power is strong enough, and the fourth gear accelerates rapidly.
Cold/warm-up startability
The cold machine starts at the touch of a button, and there is nothing unusual in many tests, so the quality is reliable and safe.
Starting performance
YBRThe engine torque is remarkable, the first gear starts quickly and smoothly, the acceleration performance is excellent and keen, the acceleration performance is excellent within 70km/h, and it can be slightly improved at 85 km/h.
tag
YBR power technology is stable, reliable and lasting, which is the most basic requirement of knights. YBR not only meets the basic demands, but also includes the quality of motorcycle with the temperament of street sports car, which is bound to become the best model for motorcycle enthusiasts to get started.

III. Control part

In order to have a more accurate understanding of the override version, we adopted several basic processes to test the performance of the whole vehicle, such as going straight, turning, shifting and shifting.

Stability during driving
The engine vibration is small, the whole vehicle is particularly comfortable to go straight, the people and the vehicle are integrated, there is no sense of disobedience, and the body has no signs of jitter and deviation. The turning radius is not large, the grip is commendable, and it is flexible without sideslip when bending slightly. The car body is stable when accelerating and decelerating in corners.
Control convenience
The whole vehicle is suitable for young people to ride in various road conditions for leisure. The handlebars are unpretentious, the clutch force is moderate, there is no pressure when crossing the city and crossing the congested road, the throttle control returns quickly, and the overall operation feeling is very good. The chassis is stable, and it can move forward at full speed when passing, and there is no sign of instability from side to side. The whole vehicle has good passability. Due to the low configuration, some functions are slightly stagnant, but they are still under control.
Flexibility of small components such as switches
The performance of each control switch is stable, and there is no flaw in several repeated tests. The only deficiency is that the appearance design of each component is too simple and bright, which makes it smell of mechanization.
Abnormal vibration of front wheel
The quality of the overriding version of the tire is worthy of recognition. There is little difference between cornering and going straight, and there is no abnormality in the front wheel.
Driving pollution
Adding lower diversion over the plate can effectively reduce wind resistance. When it is windy and rainy, the rain is not easy to stay, and with the correct posture of the fender, even in bad weather and environment, the whole journey is worry-free


tag
The override version has a strong sense of control, which is remarkable. It is only slightly inadequate in appearance and grip, but it does not affect the sense of control and speed of the whole vehicle. For newcomers who have just debuted, the quality of the override version can stand the test and toss, and there is no fault in the whole day’s evaluation.
IV. Security component

Consumers who travel long distances or use motorcycles frequently are more concerned about the safety performance of motorcycles, and the efforts of Overriding Edition in safety performance are fruitful. Xiaobian has tested the normal braking performance and emergency braking of the override version. Of course, I don’t forget to check whether the functions of speakers and indicator lights are normal. After repeated tests, the override version can give people a sense of security in braking. In the case of emergency braking, it can stop stably without interference, and there is no abnormal sound and vibration when braking. If the front and rear disc brakes are combined with emergency braking, the effect is over 70%.
In addition, Xiao Bian evaluated the driving position, foot position, front and rear shock absorption, car body vibration and noise of the override version. The results show that Skyhawk has played a great role in riding comfort, fully reducing the interference of various unfavorable factors, making the whole vehicle riding itself a pleasure.

Driving position
Safe and comfortable, the mount position and foot position are just right, there will be no discomfort, the cushion is made of high-quality material, the grain is clear, the sitting feeling is comfortable, and you will not be tired after riding for a long time.
Front fork rear shock absorption
Good rigidity, longer stroke and remarkable shock absorption performance. There won’t be much discrepancy in all kinds of road conditions. There is no obvious discomfort in carrying people and goods.
Vibration of all parts
The handlebar can be adjusted freely, with comfortable operation and no vibration. Comfortable and reasonable pedals, no vibration in the rearview mirror and wide field of vision.
noise
The engine has low noise and no noise. Meet the noise requirements when accelerating, and there is no discomfort and discomfort. The beautiful and exquisite exhaust pipe, although exposed more, does not affect passengers and cargo, and the overall operation is good.
tag
On the basis of the core appeal of comfort and driving pleasure, the Overriding Edition impressed the heart of the evaluation editor with its amazing level and flamboyant manner. If in 2015, entry-level motorcycle riders want to travel far, the first choice must be Skyhawk Overriding Edition.
Test summary

Skyhawk is actually a low-key street sports car. Although it is not eye-popping, its greatest advantage is its all-round stability, safety and reliability. Just like the "Jing Shi Man", the Overriding Edition is the "Jing Shi Man" in the automobile industry. It is economical and cost-effective. Although it won’t bring you "drug-like" stimulation, it can make you feel safe and peaceful in your gestures.
Skyhawk has low fault, good quality and low maintenance, which is very suitable for young people who have just started, because the override version can meet their basic imagination of locomotives, and at the same time it can withstand the wear and tear caused by some "illegal" manipulation. The excellent quality of Skyhawk makes us believe that there is still a lot of room for improvement for medium and low displacement motorcycles as long as they are careful. In the era when large displacement is king, motorcycle enterprises should take Yamaha’s attitude, stand in the most basic position of consumers, and make small and medium displacement more grounded and locomotive-like with pious posture.
