Positioned in Cagiva's sport motorcycle lineup, the 2005 Cagiva Raptor 125 pairs a 124.6 cc (7.6 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, two-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 14.1 HP (10.3 kW) at 9,000 rpm while maximum torque reaches 11.5 Nm (8.5 lb-ft) at 7,000 rpm. With a specific output of 113.2 HP per liter and a 2,000 rpm working window between peak torque (7,000 rpm) and peak power (9,000 rpm), the engine character is reflecting a performance-oriented street tune that balances strong mid-range pull with an energetic top-end rush.
On the scales, the Raptor 125 measures 135 kg (298 lbs) wet (curb), translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.1 HP/kg (9.57 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 800 mm (31.5 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,385 mm (54.5 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 12.5-liter (3.3 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints, while factory top speed is listed at 124 km/h (77 mph).
Within MotoLibrary's Cagiva archive, this model family spans 9 indexed model years from 2004 to 2012, allowing buyers to track year-over-year changes in emissions tuning, weight and equipment.
