Built around AJS's sport motorcycle platform, the 2010 AJS NAC12 125 utilizes a 124 cc (7.6 cu in) liquid-cooled twin, four-stroke layout. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 11.4 HP (8.3 kW) at 10,500 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 5-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 91.9 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 NAC12 125 measures 153 kg (337 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.07 HP/kg (13.42 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 770 mm (30.3 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,510 mm (59.4 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 18-liter (4.8 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
