If you have a look through our motorcycles category, you’ll notice we like to write about powerful and sexy motorcycles and it’s very rare we write about scooters or mopeds. The Yamaha Y125 Moegi Concept does not meet our power requirements but it more than makes up for it with its sexy looks. I’m not sure if it’s a motorcycle or a scooter but I like it.
With gas prices reaching the highest levels in history, a lot of people are turning to smaller displacement cars and some are even buying scooters to commute to work, but who wants to be seen on one of those ugly things with their tiny wheels and toy looks. The Moegi, on the other hand, is the Ferrari of scooters, at least in the looks department.
The Yamaha Y125 Moegi Concept is lightweight personal transportation for running around in the city; it looks like a retro bicycle and an old school motorcycle put into one package. The bike/scooter features LED lights and is belt-driven. The Moegi concept weighs only 176 pounds thanks to its aluminum frame and is powered by a 125cc single-cylinder engine. It can reach a top speed of 50 mph and has an estimated fuel economy of 188 miles per gallon.
nice bike but im afraid this is gonna cost more than 10k
May cost some bucks but at 188mpg, gonna save a lotta bucks!
Nice looking bike. But top speed of 50mph for a 125cc is pathetic, 75mph would be more appropriate. Who wants to ride this in the gutter as smug Prius drivers overtake at 60mph?
the topspeed sucks indeed but 50mph is fast enough for driving in the city… its just insanely expensive i guess
Looks awesome, I’d get one if the price is right. I wish the top speed was a little higher, but I guess If you can do some modifying you could get that top speed up there.
50 miles top speed, is plenty fast around town! i’d get one when it’s produced!
Like to know where I can purchase it here in Miami and the price.
You can’t buy it, it’s a concept bike.
