Engineered by Jianshe for the sport motorcycle segment, the 2008 Jianshe Knight JS125 6A pairs a 123 cc (7.5 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. In factory specification, maximum torque reaches 8 Nm (5.9 lb-ft) at 5,500 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 5-speed gearbox and chain final drive. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 54.0 x 54.0 mm (2.1 x 2.1 inches) with a 10.0:1 compression ratio.
On the scales, the Knight JS125 6A measures 127 kg (280 lbs) dry. Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 775 mm (30.5 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,290 mm (50.8 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 17-liter (4.5 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
