125cc

Scooter motor size

125cc describes an engine with a cylinder displacement of 125 cubic centimeters—the volume swept by the pistons.

This measurement indicates a small engine, typical of lightweight motorcycles, scooters, and mopeds.

In many countries, 125cc marks a licensing threshold: riders can operate these vehicles with a basic license before graduating to larger bikes.
