Engineered by Lexmoto for the allround motorcycle segment, the 2016 Lexmoto Michigan 125 utilizes a 125 cc (7.6 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke layout. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 9.9 HP (7.2 kW) at 8,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 9.8 Nm (7.2 lb-ft) at 6,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 5-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 79.2 HP per liter and a 2,500 rpm working window between peak torque (6,000 rpm) and peak power (8,500 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 Michigan 125 measures 140 kg (309 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.07 HP/kg (14.14 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 1,435 mm (56.5 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 13.5-liter (3.6 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints, while factory top speed is listed at 105 km/h (65 mph).
