2012 Kymco Zing II 125 Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

Positioned in Kymco's custom - cruiser motorcycle lineup, the 2012 Kymco Zing II 125 relies on a 124.1 cc (7.6 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke powerplant. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 11.5 HP (8.4 kW) at 9,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 9.3 Nm (6.9 lb-ft) at 7,750 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 5-speed gearbox. With a specific output of 92.7 HP per liter and a 1,750 rpm working window between peak torque (7,750 rpm) and peak power (9,500 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 Zing II 125 measures 152 kg (335 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.08 HP/kg (13.22 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 680 mm (26.8 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops, combined with a 1,450 mm (57.1 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 14-liter (3.7 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints, while factory top speed is listed at 113 km/h (70 mph).
