Positioned in Italjet's scooter motorcycle lineup, the 2008 Italjet Torpedo 125 features a 124 cc (7.6 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke configuration. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 10.1 HP (7.4 kW) while maximum torque reaches 5 Nm (3.7 lb-ft), transferring power to the rear wheel through a automatic gearbox. With a specific output of 81.5 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 Torpedo 125 measures 105 kg (231 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.1 HP/kg (10.4 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. The 11-liter (2.9 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
