Overview

Introducing the 2004 Husqvarna WRE 125, a standout contender in the enduro-offroad motorcycle segment. Renowned for its rugged performance and lightweight design, the WRE 125 is tailored for riders who crave adventure and the thrill of tackling challenging terrains. With its striking yellow and blue color scheme, this bike not only boasts a bold aesthetic but also a reputation for reliability and agility, making it a favored choice among both novice and experienced off-road enthusiasts. At the heart of the WRE 125 lies a spirited 124.82 cc single-cylinder, two-stroke engine. This powerplant, with a compression ratio of 8.8:1, delivers a punchy performance that makes quick work of steep inclines and rocky trails. The 6-speed gearbox allows for seamless gear transitions, ensuring that riders can tap into the engine’s power band efficiently, whether navigating tight corners or blasting down open straights. With liquid cooling and a carburettor fuel system, the engine remains consistently responsive and reliable, providing a thrilling ride while keeping temperatures in check. The WRE 125 is equipped with advanced features that enhance its off-road capabilities. The robust steel single tube cradle frame, complemented by a rear frame made from square steel tubing, ensures durability without compromising on weight. The Marzocchi upside-down telescopic hydraulic adjustable fork and progressive soft-dump rear suspension offer an impressive front travel of 300 mm and rear travel of 320 mm, providing riders with exceptional handling and comfort over rough terrain. Additionally, the bike’s ground clearance of 330 mm allows for confident navigation over obstacles, while the 10.20-litre fuel tank ensures that your adventures are not cut short by frequent refueling. **

Pros

  • Lightweight and Agile: Weighing in at just 111.1 kg (244.9 pounds), the WRE 125 is easy to maneuver, making it ideal for tight trails and technical riding.
  • Powerful Two-Stroke Engine: The single-cylinder, two-stroke engine delivers impressive torque and acceleration, providing a thrilling ride on any terrain.
  • High-Performance Suspension: The advanced suspension system offers excellent travel and adjustability, ensuring comfort and control over rough surfaces.

Cons

  • Seat Height: With a seat height of 935 mm (36.8 inches), it may be less accessible for shorter riders, potentially affecting confidence during stops.
  • Limited Fuel Capacity: While adequate for most rides, the 10.20-litre tank may necessitate more frequent stops on longer journeys.
  • Two-Stroke Maintenance: The two-stroke engine requires careful tuning and maintenance, which may not appeal to all riders, especially those looking for a low-maintenance option.
