Positioned in Chang-Jiang's classic motorcycle lineup, the 2007 Chang-Jiang BD 125 relies on a 157 cc (9.6 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke powerplant.
On the scales, the BD 125 measures 105 kg (231 lbs) dry. Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 1,280 mm (50.4 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 12-liter (3.2 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 2.1 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 571 km (355 miles) between fill-ups, while factory top speed is listed at 85 km/h (53 mph).
