1998 Cagiva Super City 125 Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

Positioned in Cagiva's super motard motorcycle lineup, the 1998 Cagiva Super City 125 relies on a 125 cc (7.6 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, two-stroke powerplant. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 15 HP (10.9 kW) at 9,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 17 Nm (12.5 lb-ft) at 9,200 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 120 HP per liter and a 300 rpm working window between peak torque (9,200 rpm) and peak power (9,500 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 Super City 125 measures 125 kg (276 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.12 HP/kg (8.33 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 870 mm (34.3 in) seat height — reflecting a long-travel chassis stance that favors ground clearance and off-pavement control.
