I just got a 2002 YZ125 and it could use some new plastic and want to get a "restyle kit" and frankly I find it all kind of confusing. Some come with airboxes, some with parts of a airbox, some with no airbox at all. Some need zip ties to attach the side number plates, etc,etc, My question is aside from genuine OEM Yamaha parts, what is the "best" plastic kit ? I am leaning toward the Cycra but would like to hear some opinions from users of these products . Thank you.

In my opinion Cycra plastic sucks. Looks good but the quality isn’t there. I like the ufo restyle kits. I did just the front & rear fenders on mine. And 2010-13 yz250f graphics fit the fenders perfect

I believe the only kit that includes the airbox is the Polisport, and you need that airbox to do the complete makeover.

I put the RTech kit on my wife's 125, it didn't come with the whole air box, just the sides to update the look of the air box. It required drilling out the rivets of the old air box and riveting the new pieces on. Her bike is a 2010 model, you would have to check if it would fit your 2002

I've got the r tech "restyled" on my 07 250 and think it makes it look dated in all honesty. Used to have the if I kit on it and that looks the best especially for the price and keeps the original airbox

I bought the oem kit from RockyMountain. Only issue is with the front fender because the holes are for a 250f/450 and the 15+ yz125 and 250 so you have to drill your own holes for the older bikes. I ended up just ordering the UFO restyle front fender because it mounts right up to the older yz's.

Just buy the polisport restyle kit from ebay. I got mine from there and it is great quality. Only gripe is the 2 week wait i had to deal with because of USPS. But other than that I am happy. The airbox slides right in and everything bolts right up. I had to drill my front fender but no big deal. Also if you go with polisport get a plastics bolt kit as it will make the process alot easier and make it look better as well...

What's the year on that Restyle Kit? I have a 2013 YZ250 that came with the Polisport Restyle plastics on it. I want to get graphics kit for it.

i got a yz125, 2013 and looking to buy a restyle kit when the summer comes, what graphic do i get for it if i buy the RTech kit?

Does a 2020 graphic kit fit, or is it some special way to go for the restyle kits for the mounting screws etc?
