Motorcycle specifications Kymco125 Quannon 2012 Une intro sino-sportive
with this attractive Quannon, Kymco is well placed to make a name for itself in the 125 sport segment. With its razor-sharp design, faux CBR 125 look (from 2007 to 2010) and sizeable frame, this Taiwanese bike does a pretty good job of wowing the crowds. Even the steel perimeter frame looks ready for a sporting challenge. On the other hand, you can't expect to bend it in half with the power available. 13 horsepower come from the 4-stroke single-cylinder engine derived from the custom Hipster - a tad reworked, with a revised camshaft and shorter gear ratios. Less modern than the competition, it's not an angry engine, but it's willing and reliable.
in fact, this engine is perfectly suited to the 125 Quannon's purpose: halfway between touring and utility. The clothing smells of sport, the function distils versatility. The protection and driving position are welcoming, and there's a small trunk, a helmet hook, two tie-down hooks and a tool kit that's not too boxy. And while the top speed easily exceeds 100 km/h, fuel consumption barely exceeds 4 liters.
admittedly, the dashboard is a little kitsch, and the forks a little flimsy, but who cares? The damping is good, the handling sound, the braking effective if timid on the attack. In fact, the only real criticism we can make is that the engine leaves us wanting more.

It's air/oil cooled, which is good, but when it's too hot, the engine isn't very cool...
Carburetion is managed by a pilot carburetor, which is a gas factory, nothing beats injection.
If you're looking for a cheap sprotive, find a post-2007 cbr 125, with injection, liquid cooling and honda reliability.

Overall quality: very good, nice finish, performance a bit on the low side, would benefit from a few more HP, to be taken with torque improvement, i.e. increase the stroke and reduce the piston diameter: the engine would be less furious, but more efficient up top; in fact, in 5th gear, it's impossible to get the break at around 10500rpm, but OK in 4th gear at 108km/h.maxi seen at 123km/h
I'm a bit picky, coming from a big cube (32 bikes at 70 years old), dry suspension, fork noise (I'm still looking), fuel consumption OK at 3.1l/100 km, in-house top case, which doesn't exist in the brand, nor the advertised center stand, imprecise digital meters, rough top
