Introducing the 2011 Derbi Senda Baja 125 SM, a spirited contender in the super motard category that promises an exhilarating ride for both newcomers and seasoned enthusiasts alike. With a price tag starting at €2644 (approximately £2514 in the UK), this agile motorcycle from the renowned Spanish brand Derbi caters to those who crave a blend of style, performance, and versatility. Whether you're maneuvering through city streets or tackling winding country roads, the Senda Baja 125 SM is engineered to deliver an enjoyable and dynamic riding experience. At the heart of the Senda Baja 125 SM lies a robust single-cylinder, four-stroke engine boasting a displacement of 124cc, paired with a 5-speed gearbox that ensures responsive power delivery. With a compression ratio of 9.2:1 and an air-cooled design, this motorcycle strikes a perfect balance between performance and efficiency. Riders will appreciate the smoothness of the electronic CDI ignition and the precision of the 26 mm carburettor, which work harmoniously to provide an engaging throttle response.

The Senda Baja 125 SM is not just about performance; it’s also packed with features that enhance the riding experience. The front sports a 41 mm hydraulic fork with an impressive travel of 195 mm, complemented by a monoshock rear suspension with 200 mm of travel, ensuring a comfortable ride over rough terrain. The braking system is equally impressive, featuring single discs measuring 300 mm in the front and 220 mm in the rear, providing reliable stopping power when it’s most needed. With an electric starter and a sporty color palette of black and red, the Senda Baja 125 SM is designed to turn heads while offering practicality for everyday use. **

Pros

  • Lightweight and Agile: At 118 kg, the bike is easy to handle, making it ideal for both new riders and those looking for a nimble machine.
  • Sporty Performance: The single-cylinder engine delivers lively acceleration and a thrilling ride, perfect for urban commuting and spirited excursions.
  • Robust Suspension: With generous travel in both the front and rear suspension, the Senda Baja 125 SM excels in comfort and stability over various terrains.

Cons

  • Limited Fuel Capacity: With an 8-litre tank, long-distance rides may require frequent refueling stops.
