With its lightweight 142kg wet weight, low 770mm seat height and agile steel trellis frame, the BN 125 is built to be easy to handle while retaining the distinctive styling associated with Benelli.

Powered by a 125cc single-cylinder, four-stroke engine with electronic fuel injection, the BN 125 produces 11.1hp and 10Nm of torque. Its five-speed gearbox, 13.5-litre fuel tank and A1 licence compatibility make it a practical option for new riders and commuters looking for an accessible 125cc motorcycle.

125cc Air-Cooled Engine

The Benelli BN 125 is powered by a 125cc single-cylinder, four-stroke engine with electronic fuel injection and air cooling.

The engine produces a maximum output of 8.2kW (11.1hp) at 9,500rpm and maximum torque of 10Nm at 7,000rpm.

A five-speed gearbox transfers power to the rear wheel through a chain final drive, giving the BN 125 a straightforward and manageable riding character for everyday road use.

The engine uses pressure-splash lubrication and features a catalytic converter and oxygen sensor. The BN 125 meets Euro 5 emissions certification.

Steel Trellis Frame

The BN 125 uses a steel trellis frame designed to provide a combination of strength, agility and manoeuvrability.

The compact 1,360mm wheelbase and 142kg wet weight help make the motorcycle manageable in urban environments, while the 770mm seat height provides an accessible riding position.

Front and Rear Suspension

The front suspension uses telescopic forks with 110.5mm of travel.

At the rear, the BN 125 uses a swingarm-mounted central shock absorber with 40mm of suspension travel and spring preload adjustment.

The suspension setup is designed for everyday road riding, providing a balance between comfort and control across urban streets and longer rides.

17-Inch Alloy Wheels

The BN 125 is equipped with aluminium alloy wheels, with a 17-inch rear wheel and a 17-inch front wheel.

The front uses a 110/80-17 tyre, while the rear uses a wider 130/70-17 tyre.

The 17-inch wheel setup complements the BN 125's compact naked-bike design and road-focused character.

ABS Braking

The Benelli BN 125 features braking hardware designed for everyday road use.

At the front is a 260mm steel disc with a three-piston calliper, while the rear uses a 240mm disc with a two-piston calliper.

ABS is included on the motorcycle, providing additional braking assistance when riding on the road.

LED Lighting

The BN 125 features LED indicators and sidelights, giving the motorcycle a modern appearance while helping improve visibility to other road users.

The angular lighting and compact bodywork complement the bike's distinctive naked-bike styling.

Digital Dashboard

A digital dashboard provides the rider with the key information needed while riding.

The easy-to-read display is positioned clearly within the rider's view and complements the BN 125's modern design.

13.5-Litre Fuel Tank

The Benelli BN 125 has a 13.5-litre fuel tank, giving riders useful fuel capacity for daily commuting and longer road journeys.

The combination of a fuel-efficient 125cc engine and large-for-class fuel tank helps reduce the need for frequent refuelling.

Low 770mm Seat Height

With a 770mm seat height, the BN 125 offers an accessible riding position for a wide range of riders.
