Built around Gilera's scooter motorcycle platform, the 2007 Gilera Runner SC 125 utilizes a 124 cc (7.6 cu in) single cylinder, four-stroke layout. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 15 HP (10.9 kW) at 9,700 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a automatic gearbox and belt final drive. With a specific output of 121 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 Runner SC 125 measures 119 kg (262 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.13 HP/kg (7.93 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 780 mm (30.7 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,340 mm (52.8 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 12-liter (3.2 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints, while factory top speed is listed at 108 km/h (67 mph).
