Overview

Introducing the 2009 Hyosung RX 125, a spirited contender in the enduro-offroad motorcycle market that perfectly balances performance and accessibility. Designed for both novice riders and seasoned enthusiasts, the RX 125 embodies the adventurous spirit of off-road exploration while maintaining a lightweight profile that makes it an ideal choice for navigating tight trails or city streets. With its striking black finish and rugged build, this motorcycle not only stands out aesthetically but also delivers an exhilarating riding experience. At the heart of the RX 125 is a lively 124.8 ccm V2, two-stroke engine that churns out an impressive 21.45 HP and 16 Nm of torque. This powertrain, coupled with a six-speed gearbox, allows the rider to seamlessly shift through gears, reaching a top speed of 120 km/h (74.6 mph) with confidence. The liquid-cooled engine ensures optimal performance even under demanding conditions, while the 12.5:1 compression ratio contributes to its spirited acceleration. Whether you’re climbing steep inclines or cruising flat trails, the RX 125 provides a punchy, responsive ride that keeps you engaged and in control. When it comes to features, the RX 125 is equipped with a 40 mm upside-down hydraulic fork at the front, offering 260 mm of wheel travel, and a robust rear suspension with a steel swingarm and hydraulic monoshock, providing an additional 270 mm of travel. This setup ensures excellent handling and stability across rough terrain. With single disc brakes on both the front and rear, you can count on reliable stopping power, enhancing the overall safety of your ride. The motorcycle’s compact dimensions, with an overall weight of only 115 kg (253.5 lbs) and a seat height of 830 mm (adjustable), make it manageable for riders of various sizes, further broadening its appeal. **
