Generations

edit

Can someone upload various detailed photographs of each generation of the RS125 to show the differences and unique features of each model. The most obvious features are: the headlight units - the shapes and the size of the lips; the colour of the forks - silver or black; the colour of the brake calipres - black, red, gold; the locations of the air intakes; the shapes of the fairings - angular on the old - rounded on later and sharp on the latest; number of spokes on the rims - 3 or 5 or multispoke (not sure of the correct term) and descriptions of the Rotax engines - which years had the Rotax 122 and Rotax 123.


Historical perspective vs press releases

edit

I've had to remove some info about the "new" version having a lighter frame and Y spoke wheels, because it's not at all clear which (if any) version of the bike this refers to. "New" in relation to what? The 2006 onwards version is listed as having "multispoke" wheels, not Y spoke, so is this a pre-release version? Where is the information on it, and when will it be in production? Please remember that "new" in internet terms lasts until the next refresh, and an encyclopedia is not an appropriate place to dump marketing blurb. Rogerborg (talk) 10:43, 15 June 2009 (UTC)Reply

Power

edit

Power is cited incorrectly. While some will be restricted to 11 kw, the bike is available as a 20 kw model as well. Older models (2006 and earlier) will be a bit more powerful. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.195.29.31 (talk) 08:57, 27 December 2010 (UTC)Reply

edit

There are no 125 GP bikes any more. The 125 class no longer exists, they're all now 250cc 4 stroke singles in Moto 3 now. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.39.99.163 (talk) 06:56, 19 April 2013 (UTC)Reply

Thanks, now fixed. --Biker Biker (talk) 07:10, 19 April 2013 (UTC)Reply
