As part of Lexmoto's broader range of budget-friendly motorcycles and scooters, the FMX 125 aimed to provide reliable transport without a hefty price tag. In its segment, it faced off against popular models such as the Honda PCX 125 and the Yamaha NMAX 125, distinguishing itself primarily through its value proposition and straightforward design.
At its heart, the FMX 125 features a 125.00 ccm (7.63 cubic inches) single-cylinder, four-stroke engine. This powerplant generates a modest 7.38 HP (5.4 kW) at 7500 RPM, with a peak torque of 7.30 Nm (0.7 kgf-m or 5.4 ft.lbs) arriving at 6500 RPM. These figures contribute to a top speed of 85.0 km/h (52.8 mph), making it suitable for city traffic and shorter commutes. The fuel tank capacity of 4.60 litres (1.22 gallons) ensures a reasonable range between fill-ups, aligning with its economical nature. Its power delivery is predictably linear, characteristic of many entry-level scooters, prioritizing ease of use over aggressive acceleration.
Riding the FMX 125 is characterized by an accommodating and upright stance, typical of a scooter. With a low seat height of 750 mm (29.5 inches) at its lowest setting, it caters well to riders of varying statures, offering confidence at stops. The light weight of 111.0 kg (244.7 pounds) contributes significantly to its nimble handling, allowing for effortless maneuverability through congested urban environments. Its scooter category design means a step-through frame and integrated storage, enhancing its practicality for daily errands and short-distance travel.
The Lexmoto FMX 125 2016 is primarily aimed at new riders, students, and budget-conscious commuters seeking an affordable and reliable mode of transport for city living. Its ease of operation, low running costs, and manageable size make it an ideal first scooter or a practical second vehicle.
