Dimensions in practice
The Officina 8 weighs 115 kg with fluids, has an 770 mm seat, and rides on a 1290 mm wheelbase.
The fuel tank holds 7.4 litres, good for about 274 km between fills in real-world riding.
Tyres are 110/70-11 front and 120/70-10 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.
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.
Chassis
Alloy wheels
Lighter than spoked wheels and they allow tubeless tyres.
Lighting
LED headlamp
Brighter, whiter and lasts the life of the bike. Halogens on rivals look yellow by comparison.
LED daytime running lamp
Makes you visible to cars in daylight, when most two-wheeler collisions happen.
Console and connectivity
Digital console
Trip meters, real-time mileage and a gear indicator. The analogue dial is disappearing.
Convenience
USB charging port
Charges the phone on a long commute. Check whether it is Type-A or Type-C.
Under-seat storage
Whether a full-face helmet fits is the question to ask at the showroom.
Equipment against S 125, 125 and Mobster
Equipment is closely matched with S 125, 125 or Mobster; the differences are in the riding, not the spec sheet.
It is offered in 1 colours: Matte Metallic Blue. Colour availability varies by variant and dealer stock.
