Overview
Introducing the 2016 HM City 125, a striking entry in the super motard category that perfectly balances agility and versatility for urban riders. With a competitive price point of €4710, the City 125 is tailored for those who seek not just a mode of transport, but a vibrant riding experience that combines style with functionality. Crafted by HM—an abbreviation of Honda Montesa in Italy—this motorcycle is engineered for both the novice and the seasoned rider, making it an appealing option in the crowded motorcycle market. At the heart of the City 125 lies a robust 124cc single-cylinder, four-stroke engine that delivers a delightful blend of power and efficiency. With a compression ratio of 11.2:1 and a 6-speed gearbox, this bike offers smooth acceleration and responsive handling, making it a joy to navigate city streets or twisty backroads. The Keihin 30mm carburettor ensures optimal fuel delivery, while the liquid cooling system maintains engine performance even during prolonged rides.

The HM City 125 is not just about performance; it boasts a suite of features that enhance both safety and comfort. The perimeter frame provides a solid foundation, while the KYB telescopic front fork and monoshock rear suspension absorb bumps effortlessly, ensuring a smooth ride. Stopping power comes from a single wave disc brake at the front (300 mm) and a rear disc (220 mm), offering reliable braking performance in various conditions. With a seat height of 860 mm (adjustable to accommodate different rider preferences) and a stylish black and silver color scheme, this motorcycle is designed to appeal to riders looking for both aesthetic and ergonomic satisfaction. **
