Introducing the 2008 Hyosung RT125D, an allround motorcycle that strikes a perfect balance between practicality and fun. Designed with urban commuting and weekend adventures in mind, this nimble ride brings a refreshing take to the entry-level motorcycle market. Hyosung, known for its robust engineering and value-oriented offerings, provides riders with a reliable machine that doesn't shy away from delivering an engaging riding experience. With its stylish design available in eye-catching colors like blue and orange, the RT125D is not just a motorcycle; it's a statement on two wheels. At the heart of the RT125D is a spirited 124.00 ccm V2, four-stroke engine that delivers a thrilling performance for both new riders and seasoned enthusiasts alike. The carburettor-fed engine, cooled by a combination of oil and air, provides excellent reliability while maintaining efficient fuel consumption. Paired with a smooth 5-speed gearbox and a chain final drive, the RT125D offers a responsive and engaging ride, perfect for weaving through city traffic or taking on twisty back roads. With a weight of only 135 kg (297.6 lbs), this motorcycle exudes agility, making it easy to handle and maneuver in tight spaces. Feature-wise, the RT125D is equipped with a range of technologies that enhance the riding experience. The telescopic front suspension and mono shock rear suspension ensure a comfortable ride, absorbing shocks from uneven road surfaces. The braking system, consisting of a single disc up front and a reliable drum brake in the rear, provides ample stopping power for confident handling. Additionally, the electric starter allows for effortless ignition, making it a breeze to get on the road quickly. With a seat height of 790 mm (31.1 inches), even shorter riders can feel confident and secure while navigating their surroundings. **

Pros

  • Lightweight and Agile: Weighing just 135 kg, the RT125D is easy to handle, making it ideal for urban commuting and new riders.
  • Efficient Engine: The V2 engine delivers a lively performance while maintaining good fuel economy, perfect for the daily grind.
  • Comfortable Riding Position: The well-designed seat height and suspension provide a comfortable ride, suited for both short trips and longer journeys.

Cons

  • Limited Power for Highway Speeds: The 124 cc engine may struggle at higher speeds, making it less suitable for long highway rides.
  • Basic Brake System: While adequate for city riding, the combination of a single disc and drum brakes may lack the performance required for aggressive riding.
  • Simple Design: The aesthetics, while appealing to some, may be considered too basic for riders looking for more premium finishes and features.
