Positioned in Yamaha's enduro - offroad motorcycle lineup, the 2006 Yamaha DT 125 X features a 124 cc (7.6 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, two-stroke configuration. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 14.8 HP (10.8 kW) at 8,000 rpm while maximum torque reaches 13 Nm (9.6 lb-ft) at 8,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 5-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 119.4 HP per liter, the engine character is reflecting a performance-oriented street tune that balances strong mid-range pull with an energetic top-end rush.

On the scales, the DT 125 X measures 122 kg (269 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.12 HP/kg (8.24 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 886 mm (34.9 in) seat height — reflecting a long-travel chassis stance that favors ground clearance and off-pavement control, combined with a 1,269 mm (50 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 10.7-liter (2.8 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
