Yamaha Issues Major Recall for Popular 125cc Scooters
If you ride a Fascino 125 or RayZR 125, here’s important news. Yamaha Motor has issued a major safety recall in the country, involving a staggering 306,635 units of these scooters. The company announced that select units manufactured between May 2, 2024, and September 3, 2025, are affected due to a potential issue with the front brake.
According to the two-wheeler maker, the front brake caliper in some bikes exhibits limited function, which could be compromising safety. From my conversations at service centres, this isn’t about minor noise; it’s a voluntary proactive move to address a genuine faulty component before it causes a problem.
So, what should you do as an owner? This recall campaign is straightforward: Yamaha will replace the specific part affected free of charge. My advice is to not wait. You can check on the brand’s website using your chassis number to see if your vehicle is part of this recall.
If it is, simply visit an authorised Yamaha service centre. It’s a hassle-free fix for peace of mind. It’s worth noting that Yamaha has not confirmed if any injuries have been reported related to this situation, which is a positive sign, but getting the check done is non-negotiable.

What Powers These Popular Scooters?
Let’s talk about what makes the Yamaha RayZR 125 FI Hybrid and Fascino 125 FI Hybrid such popular sellers. At their heart, both models use the same reliable 125 cc engine, tuned to deliver a solid 8 bhp and 10.3 Nm of peak torque. Where things get clever is the hybrid setup—they’re equipped with a Starter Motor Generator (SMG) that charges the onboard battery while you ride.
This isn’t just a gimmick; having ridden these in city traffic, I can say this power system offers a real-world benefit. It provides a temporary boost in performance from the battery at lower speeds, which is especially handy on steep gradients, and genuinely helps lower overall fuel consumption.
Beyond the motor, their braking performance is well-sorted for daily use. These Yamaha scooters come with a confident 190 mm disc brake at the front and a drum brake at the rear. They ride on a stable combination of 12-inch front and 10-inch rear wheels, which helps with stability.
On the showroom floor, you’ll find the Yamaha RayZR Disc variant priced at ₹80,900 onwards, while the Fascino 125 FI Hybrid Disc variants start from ₹87,100 onwards. Just remember, all these prices are ex-showroom, Delhi.
