Built around Keeway's naked motorcycle platform, the 2019 Keeway RKS 125 E4 utilizes a 125 cc (7.6 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke layout. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 11.4 HP (8.3 kW) at 9,000 rpm while maximum torque reaches 9.2 Nm (6.8 lb-ft) at 7,500 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 5-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 91.2 HP per liter and a 1,500 rpm working window between peak torque (7,500 rpm) and peak power (9,000 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 RKS 125 E4 measures 132 kg (291 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.09 HP/kg (11.58 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 1,290 mm (50.8 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 16-liter (4.2 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
