Positioned in Zontes's sport motorcycle lineup, the 2013 Zontes Tiger 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 11.7 HP (8.5 kW) at 8,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 5-speed gearbox. With a specific output of 93.6 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 Tiger 125 measures 105 kg (231 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.11 HP/kg (8.97 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 755 mm (29.7 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops, combined with a 1,320 mm (52 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 15-liter (4 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
