Engineered by AJS for the scooter motorcycle segment, the 2024 AJS Barletta 125 utilizes a 125 cc (7.6 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke layout. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 8.3 HP (6.1 kW) at 7,500 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a automatic gearbox and belt final drive. With a specific output of 66.4 HP per liter, the engine character is indicating a tractable, stress-free state of tune focused on everyday usability and broad torque delivery.
On the scales, the Barletta 125 measures 113 kg (249 lbs) wet (curb), translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.07 HP/kg (13.61 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 775 mm (30.5 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,300 mm (51.2 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 6.6-liter (1.7 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 2.31 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 286 km (178 miles) between fill-ups, while factory top speed is listed at 48 km/h (30 mph).
