At the heart of the 2006 Jawa-CZ 125 Chopper sport motorcycle, Jawa-CZ pairs a 124 cc (7.6 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 12.6 HP (9.2 kW) at 8,200 rpm while maximum torque reaches 9.2 Nm (6.8 lb-ft) at 7,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 5-speed gearbox. With a specific output of 101.6 HP per liter and a 1,200 rpm working window between peak torque (7,000 rpm) and peak power (8,200 rpm), 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 125 Chopper measures 125 kg (276 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.1 HP/kg (9.92 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 760 mm (29.9 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops, combined with a 1,370 mm (53.9 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 13.5-liter (3.6 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints, while factory top speed is listed at 95 km/h (59 mph).
