Cygnus X 125 (2004 - present) review
Yamaha says:
If you're looking for a smooth and efficient way to get about town, few other modes of transport come close to matching the performance of the Cygnus X.
Its compact chassis runs on 12inch wheels that make for nimble handling and easy steering. For responsive performance that keeps you ahead of the traffic, the Cygnus X is powered by a fuel-injected 4-stroke 125cc engine with air-cooling for reduced weight.

A powerful disc front brake and a rear drum brake deliver strong and predictable stopping power - and with its under-seat helmet storage, classy digital/analogue instrumentation and comfortable dual seat, the Cygnus X is the smart way to travel for one or two persons.
