At the heart of the 1999 Peugeot Sv 125 scooter motorcycle, Peugeot features a 125 cc (7.6 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, two-stroke configuration. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 17 HP (12.4 kW) at 7,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a automatic gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 136 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 Sv 125 measures 130 kg (287 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.13 HP/kg (7.65 kg per horsepower). The 7-liter (1.8 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 7 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 100 km (62 miles) between fill-ups, while factory top speed is listed at 120 km/h (75 mph).
