Key specifications
Overview
Introducing the 2016 Genata CZ 125, a nimble and versatile motorcycle designed for urban commuting and light touring. As a part of the allround category, the CZ 125 stands out as an excellent entry-level bike for new riders and a practical option for seasoned enthusiasts in search of a reliable, fuel-efficient companion. This Chinese-built model combines a distinctive design with solid engineering, making it a noteworthy contender in its class. At the heart of the Genata CZ 125 lies a lively single-cylinder, four-stroke engine boasting a displacement of 125cc. This robust little powerhouse churns out a commendable 9.66 horsepower at 9,000 RPM, allowing riders to achieve a top speed of 104.6 km/h (65.0 mph). The bike's responsive carburettor fuel system, paired with CDI ignition, contributes to a smooth and reliable ride, while the 5-speed gearbox ensures that riders can easily navigate through the city or tackle winding backroads. However, potential owners should note that the fuel consumption of 100 liters per 100 km (or approximately 2.35 mpg) may not meet the expectations of those seeking a highly economical option. The Genata CZ 125 is equipped with features that enhance both comfort and control. Its front suspension consists of telescopic forks, providing a plush ride over uneven terrain, while the twin shock absorbers at the rear ensure stability and support during a variety of riding conditions. The bike is fitted with a single hydraulic disc brake in the front and an expanding drum brake in the rear, delivering adequate stopping power for urban riding scenarios. Additionally, the electric starter simplifies the ignition process, making it user-friendly for both new and experienced riders. Available in sleek grey and white color options, the CZ 125's aesthetic appeal is matched only by its practicality. **
