Built around Malaguti's naked motorcycle platform, the 2025 Malaguti Drakon 125 pairs a 124.8 cc (7.6 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 13.4 HP (9.8 kW) at 9,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 11.4 Nm (8.4 lb-ft) at 7,500 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 107.4 HP per liter and a 2,000 rpm working window between peak torque (7,500 rpm) and peak power (9,500 rpm), 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 Drakon 125 measures 145 kg (320 lbs) wet (curb), translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.09 HP/kg (10.82 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 805 mm (31.7 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance. The 10.5-liter (2.8 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 2.6 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 404 km (251 miles) between fill-ups, while factory top speed is listed at 99 km/h (62 mph).
