2001 CZ 125 Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

At the heart of the 2001 CZ 125 allround motorcycle, CZ features a 123 cc (7.5 cu in) single cylinder, two-stroke configuration. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 10 HP (7.3 kW) at 5,500 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 5-speed gearbox. With a specific output of 81.3 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 125 measures 126 kg (278 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.08 HP/kg (12.6 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 850 mm (33.5 in) seat height — resulting in a taller command-style riding posture suited to medium-to-tall inseams.

Within MotoLibrary's CZ archive, this model family spans 5 indexed model years from 1997 to 2001, allowing buyers to track year-over-year changes in emissions tuning, weight and equipment.
