Overview

Introducing the 2014 Keeway Strike 125, a nimble and stylish entry into the sport motorcycle segment that caters to both new riders and seasoned enthusiasts seeking a lightweight machine for urban commutes and weekend adventures. With its sleek design and approachable price point, the Strike 125 is designed to make a statement while providing practicality for daily riding. Keeway, a reputable brand known in the American and European markets as a product of Qianjiang, has crafted this motorcycle to appeal to riders who desire a blend of performance, comfort, and affordability. At the heart of the Strike 125 is a robust single-cylinder, four-stroke engine that boasts a displacement of 124.50 ccm, delivering an impressive 11 horsepower at 8,500 RPM. With a torque output of 9.20 Nm at 7,000 RPM, this powertrain allows for spirited acceleration and smooth performance, making it ideal for both city traffic and open roads. The air-cooled engine is complemented by a 5-speed gearbox that offers seamless shifting, ensuring that riders have the power they need when they need it. The lightweight design, coupled with a power-to-weight ratio of 0.0846 HP/kg, results in agile handling and maneuverability, making the Strike 125 an excellent choice for those who value responsiveness and ease of control. The 2014 Keeway Strike 125 is equipped with thoughtful features that enhance both comfort and safety. The motorcycle’s bassinet frame design ensures stability while the telescopic front forks and rear coil spring suspension provide a comfortable ride even over bumpy surfaces. The braking system consists of a single disc brake at the front, complemented by a drum brake at the rear, delivering adequate stopping power for everyday riding scenarios. With a fuel capacity of 13 liters, riders can traverse longer distances without frequent stops at the pump. The electric starter adds an element of convenience, while the stylish white color option gives it a modern and eye-catching appearance. **

Pros

  • Lightweight and Agile: At just 130 kg, the Strike 125 is easy to handle, making it perfect for urban commuting and novice riders.
  • Fuel Efficiency: With a 13-liter fuel tank, riders enjoy extended range and fewer stops for refueling.
  • User-Friendly Features: The electric starter and effective braking system enhance overall riding convenience and safety.

Cons

  • Limited Power for Highway Riding: While ideal for city use, the 11 HP engine may struggle at higher speeds on the highway.
  • Basic Suspension Setup: The suspension may not be as advanced as some competitors, which could affect ride quality on rough terrain.
  • Drum Brake at the Rear: The traditional drum brake at the rear may not offer the same performance as more modern braking systems found on other sport bikes.
