With its sleek design and versatile capabilities, this motorcycle is tailored for those who crave both daily commuting efficiency and light weekend escapades. At the heart of the HY125-3C lies a robust 124.6cc single-cylinder, four-stroke engine that delivers a spirited 9.92 horsepower at an impressive 8,000 RPM.

Safety is also a priority, with a single disc brake at the front and an expanding drum brake at the rear to ensure reliable stopping power. Riders will appreciate amenities such as both electric and kick starters, making it a practical choice in various scenarios. The bike’s 14-litre fuel tank offers ample range, allowing you to enjoy longer rides without frequent refueling stops. **
