Built around KSR's scooter motorcycle platform, the 2017 KSR Soho 125 utilizes a 125 cc (7.6 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke layout. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 11.9 HP (8.7 kW) at 8,250 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a automatic gearbox and belt final drive. With a specific output of 95.2 HP per liter, 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 Soho 125 measures 130 kg (287 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.09 HP/kg (10.92 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 1,320 mm (52 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 7.4-liter (2 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
