Off-road capability isn’t the first thing people consider when shopping for a scooter but it is one of the more surprising traits of the Yamaha Zuma 125. In his review of the Zuma 125, Tom Roderick says the scooter “radiates a more adventurous attitude” than most scooters, with its knobby tires and hand guards making it capable for the odd excursion off the pavement.

But if you’re still not convinced, Yamaha‘s Taiwanese arm has released a video featuring the Zuma 125 (or BWS 125, as it is known internationally) getting rough and rugged in the dirt. The 3-minute video is the second in a series of videos produced by Yamaha Motor Taiwan to showcase the scooter.

The off-road video is embedded after the jump, but visit Yamaha Motor Taiwan to see the other segments.
