At the heart of the 2017 WK VS125 scooter motorcycle, WK utilizes a 124 cc (7.6 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke layout. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 7.4 HP (5.4 kW) at 7,700 rpm while maximum torque reaches 9 Nm (6.6 lb-ft) at 5,900 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a automatic gearbox and belt final drive. With a specific output of 59.7 HP per liter and a 1,800 rpm working window between peak torque (5,900 rpm) and peak power (7,700 rpm), the engine character is prioritizing low-RPM tractability, mechanical longevity and relaxed throttle response over peak redline numbers.
On the scales, the VS125 measures 94 kg (207 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.08 HP/kg (12.7 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 770 mm (30.3 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance. The 5-liter (1.3 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
