2006 Piaggio Liberty 125 4 Stroke Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

Built around Piaggio's scooter motorcycle platform, the 2006 Piaggio Liberty 125 4 Stroke relies on a 124 cc (7.6 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke powerplant. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 10 HP (7.3 kW) at 8,000 rpm while maximum torque reaches 10.2 Nm (7.5 lb-ft) at 6,500 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a automatic gearbox. With a specific output of 80.6 HP per liter and a 1,500 rpm working window between peak torque (6,500 rpm) and peak power (8,000 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 Liberty 125 4 Stroke measures 99 kg (218 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.1 HP/kg (9.9 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 775 mm (30.5 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,335 mm (52.6 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 6-liter (1.6 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 3.57 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 168 km (104 miles) between fill-ups.

Within MotoLibrary's Piaggio archive, this model family spans 3 indexed model years from 2005 to 2007, allowing buyers to track year-over-year changes in emissions tuning, weight and equipment.
