2016 · Naked bike
The 2016 Lexmoto Venom 125 represents a compelling entry into the fiercely competitive 125cc naked bike segment. As part of Lexmoto's broader range of accessible motorcycles, the Venom 125 aimed to capture the attention of new riders and those seeking an economical commuter. In its year, it found itself up against established rivals such as the Yamaha MT-125 and the Honda CB125R, carving out its niche by offering a feature-rich package at an attractive price point.
At the heart of the Venom 125 is a 125.00 ccm (7.63 cubic inches) engine, producing a modest yet capable 11.40 HP (8.3 kW) at 9000 RPM. This power output, coupled with 9.50 Nm (1.0 kgf-m or 7.0 ft.lbs) of torque delivered at 7000 RPM, allows the bike to achieve a top speed of 105.0 km/h (65.2 mph). With a wet weight of 134.0 kg (295.4 pounds), the power-to-weight ratio is geared towards efficient urban navigation and comfortable cruising on less demanding roads. The 14.00 litres (3.70 gallons) fuel tank provides a decent range for daily commutes or weekend excursions.
As a naked bike, the Venom 125 offers an upright stance, which is generally favored for comfort during longer rides and improved visibility in traffic. The seat height of 770 mm (30.3 inches) is particularly accommodating for a wide range of riders, contributing to a sense of control and ease of handling, especially at lower speeds. Its relatively light weight further enhances maneuverability, making it forgiving for novice riders learning the ropes. The chassis provides predictable handling, suitable for navigating congested city streets and enjoying winding country lanes.
The Lexmoto Venom 125 of 2016 is primarily targeted at new riders, commuters, and those seeking an affordable and stylish entry into motorcycling. Its accessible nature, combined with its practical specifications, makes it a sensible choice for individuals prioritizing cost-effectiveness and ease of use. While it may not match the outright performance or premium feel of some more expensive competitors, the Venom 125 delivers a reliable and enjoyable riding experience, making it a strong contender in the budget-friendly 125cc market.
