Motorcycle specifications Mash125 Seventy Five 2017 Petite élégante

For Mash, the year 2017 and its takeover by Euro4 standards should not be a stumbling block to its success. Its 125s are a hit and its mid-cylinders arouse a refreshing curiosity. As a result, the brand is modernizing just enough to keep the public wanting more. The Seventy-Five thus gains Delphi injection, enabling it to meet European requirements. This should soften engine response, control fuel consumption and definitively resolve the small and parsimonious quirks of the mechanics.
Braking is improved with a 3-piston caliper backed up by an integral system (70% front, 30% rear). The Mash takes advantage of this evolution to adorn itself with a "so british" green color and new tires.

Proud of its little Seventy roadster, Mash continues its offensive in the 125 segment. Nostalgia lulls so many hearts that the little tease knows how to catch the eye. And the Seventy Five plays this up with gusto. With its British flair and enhanced equipment, it's sure to attract a clientele fond of machines with cachet and welcome simplicity.

the Seventy Five is based on the 125 Seventy, with a number of changes to the chassis. The frail 35 mm fork is replaced by an inverted 38 mm unit. Spoke rims have been upgraded to 17 inches, and wider tires are fitted. As for braking, it becomes more serious. The front disc is 80 mm larger, while the rear has a 220 mm drum. Shock absorbers are said to be firmer. As a result, the Five should prove more rigorous in its handling. Apart from these technical aspects, the fuel tank has been enlarged by 2 liters, for a total of 14 units. A flat saddle, knee-length grips, a mouth that hits the bull's-eye, and we've got ourselves a mini-Bonneville. Charm only you!

the little engine that powers the Mash also smacks of vintage. Derived from an old Suzuki block, it produces a dozen or so horsepower and decent performance, but nothing more. But that's not what we want from it. On the other hand, in terms of fuel consumption, we're talking real economy: in the region of 3 liters per 100 km, enough for a range of over 400 km. While we're on the subject of figures, let's put forward the Seventy Five's shock argument: its rock-bottom price. This can be explained by its country of origin, China. Manufactured in the world's largest economy, with its unrivalled production capacity, the Mash is widely accessible to all pockets. Chinese indeed, but with a French eye on production and on the coat of arms. You'll forget all that, and you won't even care once you've been captivated by the machine's style. Reliability and finish remain to be tested over time.

For 2016, in addition to its new colors, the Seventy Five has gained chrome mudguards and a center stand.
