What is the power difference between 110 and 125 motorcycles?
2 Answers
110 and 125 motorcycles have a relatively small difference in power. The numbers 110 and 125 refer to the engine displacement of the motorcycles. Below is a detailed introduction about motorcycle displacement: Classification: Motorcycles are categorized by displacement into mopeds (below 50cc), small-displacement motorcycles (50cc-250cc), mid-range (400cc-750cc), and large-displacement (above 600cc). Anything above 600cc is considered large-displacement. Additional information: Motorcycles with larger displacements generally have higher engine output, more power, and relatively faster acceleration. However, most household motorcycles fall within the 100-125cc range, with a few at 150cc. The displacement mainly affects acceleration performance and torque output, while the top speed difference is minimal.
As a motorcycle enthusiast with years of riding experience, I've personally felt the noticeable power difference between 110cc and 125cc models. A 110cc bike typically has an engine power ranging from 7-9 horsepower, while a 125cc can reach 10-15 horsepower, delivering smoother acceleration and noticeably quicker starts at traffic lights. When carrying passengers uphill, the 125cc maintains steadier performance without the stuttering tendency of 110cc models. Fuel consumption-wise, the 125cc averages about half a liter more per 100 kilometers, but this trade-off brings enhanced riding enjoyment and daily convenience. For frequent mountain rides or heavy loads, the 125cc's power advantage is worth considering—choose based on your riding habits. For urban short-distance commuting, the 110cc offers sufficient fuel efficiency and practicality.
