The numbers in context
Each figure read against the 26 commuter bikes we have reviewed.
The figures below are the manufacturer's. To make them mean something, each is read against the 26 commuter bikes we have reviewed: the class average is the number to beat, and the rank shows how far the SR125 is from the ends of the field.
The 125 cc engine is 6 cc above the class average of 119 cc, 3rd of 26. Peak power of 9.6 bhp is right on the class average of 9.5 bhp. Torque of 8.2 Nm is 1.6 Nm below the class average of 9.8 Nm, 21st of 26.
Kerb weight is 120 kg, right on the class average of 118 kg. Seat height is 780 mm, right on the class average of 792 mm. Most riders from about 5'2" will get both feet flat. Ground clearance is 160 mm, 12 mm below the class average of 172 mm, 23rd of 26. Take tall speed breakers at an angle with a pillion, and slow right down for the unpainted ones.

Dimensions in practice
The SR125 weighs 120 kg with fluids, has an 780 mm seat, 160 mm of ground clearance, and rides on a 1285 mm wheelbase. Clearance is on the low side; take tall speed breakers at an angle with a pillion.
The fuel tank holds 14.5 litres, good for about 674 km between fills in real-world riding.
Tyres are 110/70-17 front and 130/70-17 rear, tubeless.
Features, and why each matters
Grouped by what they do for you. Underlined items link to a plain-English explainer.
Safety and braking
Links the rear brake lever to the front so a rear-only stamp still slows you properly.
Front disc brake
Sheds heat and works when wet. Worth the small premium over a drum on any commuter.
Rear disc brake
Adds feel and fade resistance at the back; matters more on heavier or faster bikes.
Tubeless tyres
A puncture deflates slowly instead of instantly, and roadside repair takes ten minutes.
Side-stand engine cut-off
Engine will not run with the stand down, which prevents a common low-speed crash.
Hazard lamps
All four indicators flash; useful in fog and when stopped on a highway shoulder.
Lighting
LED tail lamp
Lights up instantly, which gives the vehicle behind a fraction more warning.
Console and connectivity
Digital console
Trip meters, real-time mileage and a gear indicator. The analogue dial is disappearing.
Convenience
Engine kill switch
Switch the engine off from the right bar without reaching for the key.
Equipment against SR250, SP160 and FZ X
Equipment present on at least one variant of each; check the variant table for trim-specific items.
