[New Motorcycle] KYMCO, “Racing S125” aimed to reduce weight of 4 kg, also released the color lineup

KYMCO Japan released the new "Racing S125" on September 14 (Friday).

This time "Racing S125" achieved weight reduction of 4 kg from the conventional model by optimizing the frame rigidity, reducing the thickness of the stem bracket, changing the material of the stem bracket, changing the material of the tandem step bracket, and various other improvements. By weight saving, we realized even more light handling performance and acceleration performance, and improved exercise performance.

The color lineup added matt silver of new advanced impression, matte black of chic sporty impression, and set all four colors.

Major Features

1. Hydroforming frame
The frame adopts a frame by a hydroforming manufacturing method that enables continuous curved surface and complicated structure and achieves both high rigidity and vibration absorption. In addition, the lower suspended type engine hanger and the rear suspension arranged at a high angle reduce the moment ratio, improve the tracking ability of the road surface, and made it possible to run comfortably stably in every scene.

2. Sophisticated styling
Following the identity of the Racing series symbolized by low dual headlight, adopting a massive and dynamic sense of body design, a sense of depth sense.

Designed head lights and U-shaped LED tail lamps assert individuality to be recognized as "Racing S" at a glance.
The frame exposed to the body side drifts a solid feeling unique to metal, realizing a high texture not found in conventional scooters.

3. Technology for reducing friction loss
Offset cylinder that reduces the side pressure of the piston and reduces friction loss by offsetting the cylinder, roller rocker arm that reduces friction with the camshaft by roller by needle bearing, NASA developed high heat resistance MSFC 388 aluminum with less deformation By thoroughly suppressing the friction loss inside the engine by piston of the material etc., we reduced the loss of engine power and contributed to excellent output characteristics.

4. KEIHIN injection system
The newly adopted injection system made by KEIHIN is a high precision 8 nozzle injector which improves combustion efficiency by making the fuel into a fine mist, improves the environmental performance, and responds to the throttle operation with responsive engine characteristics It is realized.

5. Controllable brake system
The rear brake adopts a disc brake excellent in controllability, the front brake is a sporty design, floating mount a pet disc with excellent cooling efficiency, and it is set as a highly controllable setting that can be braked at the rider's intention.

6. High degree of freedom riding position
The flat floor board with the footrest in front and the ergonomic design seat provide three riding positions (urban mode, racing mode, touring mode) that can be used properly depending on the situation. It is compatible with reduction of fatigue in long distance driving and holdability during sports driving.

7. Fulfilling utility excellent in everyday usability
In order to respond to the demand of heavy users, there are a seat and a filler opening that can be opened with a single touch from the main switch, a storage space under the seat that can accommodate a full face of XL size + rain gear, a 5 V 2 A USB charging socket that can charge quickly on smartphones, We have enriched utilities that make great use in everyday use.
