Key specifications
Overview
### Introducing the Fantic Caballero 125MR Competizione Unveiled in 2016, the Fantic Caballero 125MR Competizione seamlessly merges playful agility with robust style, positioning itself prominently in the supermotard segment. With Italian craftsmanship at its heart, this motorcycle is designed for enthusiasts who crave both exhilarating performance on the streets and capable handling on the track. The sleek lines and vibrant color options of red, white, and blue not only enhance its aesthetic appeal but also embody the spirit of competition and adventure, ensuring that you turn heads wherever you ride. ### Engine Performance and Riding Characteristics Powering the Caballero 125MR Competizione is a lively single-cylinder, four-stroke engine with a displacement of 124.45 ccm. The engine’s design features a 52.0 mm bore and a 58.6 mm stroke, which work harmoniously to deliver an energetic ride. With four valves per cylinder and a precision-engineered Keihin 30mm carburettor fueling it, this powerhouse boasts impressive throttle response and crisp acceleration. The 6-speed gearbox ensures that riders can harness this performance effectively, whether navigating tight city streets or stretching the bike’s legs on open roads. The liquid cooling system keeps the engine running at optimal temperatures, allowing for prolonged adventures without compromise. At a featherweight 96 kg, the Caballero feels nimble and responsive, making it a joy to handle in urban settings or on twisty backroads. ### Key Features and Technology The Fantic Caballero 125MR Competizione is not just about raw power; it also features a host of cutting-edge technology and thoughtful design elements. The perimeter steel CrMo frame and removable steel subframe provide durability and ease of maintenance, while the progressive link steel swing arm enhances stability and control. Its suspension system—featuring a Fantic FRS competition 41mm upside-down front fork and a piggyback rear shock—ensures a smooth and dynamic ride. The braking system is equally impressive, boasting wave discs both front and rear for superior stopping power, with 260 mm and 220 mm diameters respectively. An electric starter adds convenience, making every ride a hassle-free experience. ###
