Benali's Lion Cub series, which has opened a new chapter in domestic retro motorcycles, has also triggered a retro boom for several years, not only in the domestic market, but also in the overseas market, the Cub series is also one of the models that has attracted much attention. At last year's Milan Motor Show, Bernali exhibited the new Cub 125, which was recently officially launched in Europe for 3,240 euros, equivalent to about 23,000 yuan!
The exterior design of the Cub 125 is very close to the larger Cub 250, which also inherits the familial characteristics of the Cub series, which is very exquisite in this level of retro models! However, the Cub 125 seems to incorporate TNT150 design elements, such as the same frame and exhaust pipe.
Power part, The Cub 250 is equipped with a single-cylinder four-stroke 125cc water-cooled engine, the maximum horsepower is 12.8hp/9,500rpm, the maximum torque is 10 Nm/8,500rpm, matching the 6-speed gearbox, in line with the latest Euro V emission standards, it is reported that the fuel consumption of this engine is very prominent, Benali claims that the fuel consumption per 100 kilometers is only 2.2 liters.
The hardware part, equipped with a family-based all-vehicle LED light source, led turn signals and headlights are almost the same as the Cub 250. It uses 35mm inverted fork and mid-mount rear suspension; 280mm front single disc + three-piston calipers, rear 220mm single-disc + dual-piston calipers, but it is not equipped with ABS, and for 125-class models, ABS will not be mandatory in Europe.
The large LCD digital meter, like the Cub 250, features 17-inch aluminum alloy wheels at the front and rear, 110/80-R17 at the front and 130/70-R17 at the rear. Equipped with a 12.5L fuel tank, the curb weight is 145kg, the seat height is 795mm, and it is currently available in cyan and gray options.
As we all know, the domestic motorcycle market 250cc has long been not a "golden displacement", but has become a novice entry-level model, 150 or even below the model has been gradually marginalized, like this 125 level of exquisite car, only in the overseas market There is still some market space, the domestic market has the young lion 250, 125 models are almost impossible to appear in the domestic market.
