Engineered by WK for the custom - cruiser motorcycle segment, the 2017 WK 125 Cruiser pairs a 124 cc (7.6 cu in) air-cooled twin, four-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 11.4 HP (8.3 kW) at 9,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 9.2 Nm (6.8 lb-ft) at 9,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 5-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 91.9 HP per liter and a 500 rpm working window between peak torque (9,000 rpm) and peak power (9,500 rpm), the engine character is indicating a tractable, stress-free state of tune focused on everyday usability and broad torque delivery.
Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 700 mm (27.6 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops, combined with a 1,460 mm (57.5 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 16-liter (4.2 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
