Bike insurance customers around the UK will soon have the option of purchasing Yamaha's BW125 when it arrives in dealerships around the country later this month.

The Japanese motorcycle manufacturer has revealed that the "agile and responsive" BW125, which is powered by a 125cc, four-stroke air-cooled engine, will hit the stores at the end of April.

Available in Avalanche White and Midnight Black, the motorcycle will be priced at £2,499 and will come with one year's RAC cover and a two-year unlimited mileage warranty.

According to Yamaha, the company's renowned engineering know-how will ensure that customers' bike insurance claims are kept low as "you can trust the BW125 to take you anywhere you want to go – and always on time".

Environmentally-friendly motorcyclists may also be interested in the model, as its Electronic Fuel Injection function makes the engine more efficient and reduces overall emissions.

The BW125 also features a number of extra design touches destined to please bike enthusiasts, including a pillion seat for two-up riding and all-terrain style tyres.

Earlier this week, Yamaha launched a special range of dust covers for its range as part of its growing accessories line-up.

The covers are developed using a special non-woven polyester fabric, which guards against dust and scratches while also allowing condensation to evaporate.
