2011 Aprilia Scarabeo 125ie Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

Built around Aprilia's scooter motorcycle platform, the 2011 Aprilia Scarabeo 125ie utilizes a 124 cc (7.6 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke layout. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 19.7 HP (14.4 kW) at 10,000 rpm while maximum torque reaches 11 Nm (8.1 lb-ft) at 8,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a automatic gearbox and belt final drive. With a specific output of 158.9 HP per liter and a 2,000 rpm working window between peak torque (8,000 rpm) and peak power (10,000 rpm), the engine character is placing it firmly in high-revving supersport territory where top-end breathing dominates.

On the scales, the Scarabeo 125ie measures 154 kg (340 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.13 HP/kg (7.82 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 810 mm (31.9 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance. The 8.5-liter (2.2 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
