A practical look at how the Trail125’s engine, gearing, weight, and braking translate to everyday riding.
Base Price
$4,199
Model ID: CT125A
Engine & Fueling
The Trail125 uses a 124cc air-cooled single-cylinder four-stroke engine with a Programmed Fuel-Injection (PGM-FI) system and a 24mm throttle body. Fuel injection helps deliver consistent starts and predictable throttle response for stop-and-go riding around San Diego.
Transmission & Drive
A four-speed semi-automatic transmission keeps shifting simple while still giving you control over gearing. Final drive is #428 chain with 14T/38T sprockets—well suited for steady pace cruising and low-speed exploring.
Braking Confidence
The Trail125 features a single 220mm front disc with ABS and a single 190mm rear disc. For mixed surfaces and everyday traffic, ABS up front can add confidence when conditions change.
Real-World Performance: What the Numbers Mean
The Trail125 is built for approachable, confidence-inspiring riding rather than high-speed sprints. Its lightweight feel, simple gearing, and compact dimensions make it a great fit for neighborhood errands, scenic backroads, and relaxed exploring.
