At the heart of the 2009 Keeway Matrix 125 scooter motorcycle, Keeway utilizes a 124.6 cc (7.6 cu in) single cylinder, two-stroke layout. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 8.1 HP (5.9 kW) at 7,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 8.3 Nm (6.1 lb-ft) at 6,500 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a automatic gearbox and belt final drive. With a specific output of 65 HP per liter and a 1,000 rpm working window between peak torque (6,500 rpm) and peak power (7,500 rpm), the engine character is indicating a tractable, stress-free state of tune focused on everyday usability and broad torque delivery.
On the scales, the Matrix 125 measures 93 kg (205 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.09 HP/kg (11.48 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 1,270 mm (50 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 5-liter (1.3 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 2.5 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 200 km (124 miles) between fill-ups, while factory top speed is listed at 102 km/h (63 mph).

Power
Compare engine output with similar motorcycles if acceleration, highway use or two-up riding matters.
Torque
Torque is useful for judging real-world pull, especially for touring, commuting and loaded riding.
Weight
Compare weight carefully because it affects low-speed handling, parking and confidence.
Fuel Capacity
Fuel capacity helps estimate touring range and how often you may need to stop.
Brakes
Brake setup is worth comparing if you ride in traffic, mountains or with a passenger.
Transmission
Transmission and final drive affect maintenance, smoothness and everyday usability.
