At the heart of the 2009 Hyosung GT 125 naked motorcycle, Hyosung utilizes a 124.5 cc (7.6 cu in) oil & air-cooled v2, four-stroke layout. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 14.2 HP (10.4 kW), transferring power to the rear wheel through a 5-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 114.1 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 GT 125 measures 166 kg (366 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.09 HP/kg (11.69 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 795 mm (31.3 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,455 mm (57.3 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 17-liter (4.5 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
