2012 Peugeot Citystar 125 Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

At the heart of the 2012 Peugeot Citystar 125 scooter motorcycle, Peugeot features a 124.6 cc (7.6 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke configuration. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 14 HP (10.2 kW), transferring power to the rear wheel through a automatic gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 112.4 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 Citystar 125 measures 155 kg (342 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.09 HP/kg (11.07 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 795 mm (31.3 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,430 mm (56.3 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 9.5-liter (2.5 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 2.94 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 323 km (201 miles) between fill-ups.
