Engineered by Sinnis for the custom - cruiser motorcycle segment, the 2021 Sinnis Hoodlum 125 relies on a 125 cc (7.6 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke powerplant. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 11.1 HP (8.1 kW) at 9,500 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 5-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 88.8 HP per liter, the engine character is indicating a tractable, stress-free state of tune focused on everyday usability and broad torque delivery.
On the scales, the Hoodlum 125 measures 135 kg (298 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.08 HP/kg (12.16 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 710 mm (28 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops, combined with a 1,370 mm (53.9 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry.
