Designed with the modern city dweller in mind, the Mulhacen Cafe 125 seamlessly blends classic café racer aesthetics with contemporary performance. Priced at approximately €3711, this motorcycle stands out in the compact bike segment, catering to both novice riders and seasoned enthusiasts looking for an agile, lightweight option for daily commuting or weekend escapes. At the heart of the Mulhacen Cafe 125 lies a peppy 124.20 cc single-cylinder, four-stroke engine that delivers a maximum output of 15 horsepower at 9250 RPM. This spirited powerplant is paired with a 6-speed gearbox, enabling smooth and responsive shifting that enhances the overall riding experience.

The Mulhacen Cafe 125 is equipped with an array of features that enhance its performance and rider comfort. The tubular high tensile steel frame provides a solid foundation, complemented by a front 40mm upside-down fork and a rear mono-shock suspension, delivering 110 mm and 130 mm of travel respectively for a smooth ride over varying terrain. Stopping power is handled by a single disc brake setup at both the front (300 mm) and rear (218 mm), ensuring confident braking performance. With a seat height of 790 mm, it's accessible for a wide range of riders. Additional highlights include an electric starter and vibrant color options in red and black, making this Spanish-made motorcycle not just a ride, but a statement. **
