At the heart of the 1999 Daelim VT 125 custom - cruiser motorcycle, Daelim pairs a 124.1 cc (7.6 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 12 HP (8.8 kW) at 9,100 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 5-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 96.7 HP per liter, the engine character is reflecting a performance-oriented street tune that balances strong mid-range pull with an energetic top-end rush.
Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 715 mm (28.1 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops, combined with a 1,500 mm (59.1 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 12-liter (3.2 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 3.5 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 343 km (213 miles) between fill-ups, while factory top speed is listed at 108 km/h (67 mph).
