Engineered by Derbi for the super motard motorcycle segment, the 2014 Derbi Senda DRD 125 SM pairs a 124.2 cc (7.6 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 15 HP (10.9 kW) at 9,250 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 120.8 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.
On the scales, the Senda DRD 125 SM measures 131 kg (289 lbs) wet (curb), translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.11 HP/kg (8.73 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 910 mm (35.8 in) seat height — reflecting a long-travel chassis stance that favors ground clearance and off-pavement control, combined with a 1,445 mm (56.9 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 8-liter (2.1 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
