Spanish motorcycle brand Rieju has unveiled a new
125 cc street bike, called the Rieju Strada 125. The
Strada 125 is powered by a 124 cc, four-stroke, single-cylinder, air-cooled
engine with a balancer shaft for smooth performance. With a low seat height of
750 mm, and 130 kg kerb weight, the Strada 125 promises to be a nifty commuter
motorcycle.
Rieju claims the Strada 125 will have fuel
consumption of 52 km/l, and with an 18-litre fuel tank, that translates to over
900 km of range on a single tankful. The engine is fed by electronic injection
and power is transmitted by a five-speed transmission. In terms of cycle parts,
the Strada 125 has 37 mm telescopic front forks and dual shock absorbers at the
rear, with 17-inch wheels with both front (265 mm) and rear (220 mm) disc
brakes. There's no ABS on offer, but the Strada 125 comes with combined braking
system. Other features include LED indicators, digital speedo with gear
indicator, fuel gauge and analogue rev counter.
As far as styling is concerned, the Strada 125 is in
line with the design lines of current roadsters, with clean lines and
aesthetically pleasing looks. Rieju already has a Scrambler-style model in the
125 cc segment, called the Rieju Century 125.
