Positioned in Nipponia's scooter motorcycle lineup, the 2009 Nipponia Altiva 125 features a 124 cc (7.6 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke configuration. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 7 HP (5.1 kW) at 7,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 7.6 Nm (5.6 lb-ft) at 6,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through belt final drive. With a specific output of 56.5 HP per liter and a 1,500 rpm working window between peak torque (6,000 rpm) and peak power (7,500 rpm), the engine character is prioritizing low-RPM tractability, mechanical longevity and relaxed throttle response over peak redline numbers.
On the scales, the Altiva 125 measures 111 kg (245 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.06 HP/kg (15.86 kg per horsepower). The 6-liter (1.6 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 2.8 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 214 km (133 miles) between fill-ups, while factory top speed is listed at 80 km/h (50 mph).

Power
Compare engine output with similar motorcycles if acceleration, highway use or two-up riding matters.
Torque
Torque is useful for judging real-world pull, especially for touring, commuting and loaded riding.
Weight
Compare weight carefully because it affects low-speed handling, parking and confidence.
Fuel Capacity
Fuel capacity helps estimate touring range and how often you may need to stop.
Brakes
Brake setup is worth comparing if you ride in traffic, mountains or with a passenger.
